    When you think of the types of services there are, what comes to mind? Some examples could be wireless networks, lawn maintenance, house cleaners, banks, and more. How about products? From phones and televisions to cars and potato chips, the list could likely go on as endlessly as the list of services. Some businesses offer both services and products. Most restaurants, for example, provide a product (beverages and meals) as well as a service (pouring drinks, cooking food, serving tables, cleaning dishes).

    promotion (advertising). Products are either tangible goods or intangible services that meet
    consumers’ demand and needs. Khan (2014) posits that products follow a product life cycle and
    its important for businesses plan for the stages, as well as learn about their unique challenges.
