3 Axioms and foundational premises
Introduction
The lexicon of service-dominant logic
Axiom 1 and foundational premise 1: service is the fundamental basis of exchange
Foundational premise 2: indirect exchange masks the fundamental basis of exchange
Foundational premise 3: goods are distribution mechanisms for service provision
Foundational premise 4: operant resources are the fundamental source of competitive advantage
Foundational premise 5: all economies are service economies
Axiom 2 and foundational premise 6: the customer is always a cocreator of value
Foundational premise 7: the enterprise cannot deliver value, but can only offer value propositions
Foundational premise 8: a service-centered view is inherently customer oriented and relational
Axiom 3 and foundational premise 9: all economic and social actors are resource integrators
Axiom 4 and foundational premise 10: value is always uniquely and phenomenologically determined by the beneficiary
