1. Intangibility:-
_________________
A physical product is visible and concrete. Services are intangible. The service cannot be touched or viewed, so it is difficult for clients to tell in advance what they will be getting. For example, banks promote the sale of credit cards by emphasizing the conveniences and advantages derived from possessing a credit card.
2. Inseparability:-
___________________
- Personal services cannot be separated from the individual. Services are created and consumed simultaneously. The service is being produced at the same time that the client is receiving it. for example, during an online search or a legal consultation. Dentist, musicians, dancers, etc. create and offer services at the same time.
3. Perishability:-
_______________
- Services have a high degree of perishability. Unused capacity cannot be stored for future use. If services are not used today it is lost forever. For example, spare seats in an aeroplane cannot be transferred to the next flight. Similarly,, empty rooms in five-star hotels and credits not utilized are examples of services leading to economic losses.
- As services are activities performed for simultaneous consumption they perish unless consumed.
