The theoretical part is devoted to an explanation of the issue. Specifics of services are outlined as well as trends that will shape future services. A service design is presented as a main topic. Its aim is to find all customer-service "touchpoints", to discover a customer's journey through the service and, on the basis of these inputs, to innovate the service for the highest customer satisfaction and efficiency for a provider on the other hand. There are also presented arguments for the service design as well as methods how services can be improved -- "customer journey map", "personas", own experience with the service, "ethnographic research" and "webdesign". These methods are also used in a practical part. The practical use of the service design is shown on a business "Glasses home". Its focus is a sale of glasses through an e-shop bryle-domu.cz as well as through a patented self-service optician "Optiscont". Using the previously introduced methods, a survey for "Glasses home" is realised. The survey have two phases. The first phase is devoted to the testing of a service prototype, the second phase is devoted to the complex assessment of the service that has been innovated based on the first phase. The final part is devoted to interpretation of results. Based on the practical part, a "customer journey map" is compiled, including "personas" -- archetypes of service customers. The "reservoir of good will" is used to present the strengths and weaknesses of the service. Finally, recommendations for innovations are formulated. The main message is to simplify the website, to explain the "Optiscont" concept to customers at the point of sale and to focus on interconnecting all touchpoints.
