Why marketing Of your services ???

 One needs marketing not only for products, but for services as well.  Many companies offer a services, rather than a product.  If you don't market what you offer, how will people know this service exists???  Market your services everywhere you can so that your business can strive.

1.Intangibility :  A defining characteristic of a service is that it is intangible – it is not something physical that you can see, touch, or taste.  The intangibility of services is what primarily differentiates a service from a product.product  Intangibility poses a challenge to those marketing a service, as they often need to give tangible proof for the quality of service.marketingquality  Buying services are risky for the customer; hence, providing adequate tangible proof of good service ensures repeat customers.service

 Teachers provide a service that is intangible. You can't feel, touch, or taste the service of teaching as shown in. However, it is possible to give tangible proof for the quality of service, such as through state test scores.intangibletangible

 The term heterogeneity describes the uniqueness of service offerings (also known as variability).  The service can never be exactly repeated as the same point in time, location, or circumstances, or with the same configurations or resources, even if the same consumer requests the same service.

 Heterogeneity of service quality does not imply that no two customers can receive great service, it just means that no two transactions can be repeated identically.

 The teacher that teaches you marketing in the class and your tutor teaching you marketing in your home has different level of knowledge and capacity and way of making you understand. They are not exactly the same.

 Generally,the goods are produced & stocked before selling & consumption. But,in contrast the services are consumed at the time of production,i.e. they cant be stocked or kept on the shelf before consumption happens simultaneously, &there is and there is an interaction between the consumer & the marketer.  Hence,the provider & the service is inseparable.

 Certain consumables, like ripe fruits perish in the course of time if they are not consumed & become unfit for the consumption,which is a loss to the seller.  Similarly,here,some kinds of services if not consumed when it available,are lost forever.

 Example : Time –if not utilized,cant be stored & used at an later date.  The controlling of this kind of services to prevent the opportunity lost is very complex & critical,& this can be only minimized,but not really prevented….  The marketer need to consider all critical aspects & plan carefully to have the optimum utilization of capacity for providing services.
