    7 Rules of Attraction
    (HMD Praxis der Wirtschaftsinformatik: Vol. 54, No. 5, 2017) Robra-Bissantz, Susanne; Lattemann, Christoph
    Alles bleibt anders. Die Digitalisierung verändert Märkte – zum Teil disruptiv. Allerdings gilt heute noch mehr als früher: es kommt nicht auf ein Produkt an, sondern auf den Wert, den man dem Kunden bietet. So zumindest proklamiert es der Ansatz der Service Dominant Logic. Und hier bietet genau die Digitalisierung und ihr Einsatz in kundenorientierten Diensten verschiedene Möglichkeiten, die aus Produkten ganze Problemlösungen für den Kunden machen und damit ihren Wert deutlich steigern: ob durch Individualisierung, durch bessere Unterstützung oder durch raffinierte Zusatzleistungen. Es lohnt sich, an verschiedenen Stellen einen anderen Blick auf die Attraktivität des eigenen Angebots zu werfen. Hierzu stellt der vorliegende Beitrag die wesentlichen Grundlagen der Service Dominant Logic vor. In 7 Schritten entwickelt er darauf aufbauend Denkanstöße in Regelform für eine Servicification und Digitalisierung der eigenen Produktpalette.AbstractEverything stays different. Digitization changes markets disruptively. But still something stays the same: it’s not the product that makes the difference in customer preferences but the value that it offers to its beneficiaries. An approach that stresses this is called Service Dominant Logic. Digitization fits well into this approach, as digital services may offer a whole range of possibilities to raise a product’s value. Those digital services focus on individualisation, on better support of the customer or refined value adding services. It is worth assessing the own value proposition in this perspective. Our contribution starts with presenting the basic concepts of Service Dominant Logic. Then, it introduces seven subsequent thought-provoking impulses in the form of rules, that lead to a servicification and digitization of the own range of products.

    How to Succeed with Cloud Services?
    (Business & Information Systems Engineering: Vol. 61, No. 2, 2019) Trenz, Manuel; Huntgeburth, Jan; Veit, Daniel
    How can cloud providers be successful? Severe competition and low up-front commitments create enormous challenges for providers of consumer cloud services when attempting to develop a sustainable market position. Emergent trends like consumerization lead to high growth rates and extend the reach of these services far into the enterprise sphere. Using a freemium model, many providers focus on establishing a large customer base quickly but fail to generate revenue streams in the long run. Others charge consumers early but do not reach their growth targets. Based on a representative sample of 596 actual cloud service users, the study examines how consumer cloud services can become self-sustainable on the basis of the user base and revenue streams they generate. The authors identify two mechanisms that influence the success of consumer cloud services, dedication- and constraint-based mechanisms, and show how they drive different elements of success. They find that satisfaction impacts the success of cloud services in terms of user generation and continuance, while switching barriers need to be in place to generate revenues. The results indicate that focusing on a single success element can be misleading and insufficient to understand the success of cloud services. The key findings are used to derive recommendations for three generic strategies that cloud providers can apply to become successful in their competitive market environment.
