    The aim is to explore the distinctive features of services such as heterogeneity, intangibility, inseparability and perishability. Recognition of these special characteristics will provide insights for enlightened and innovative management. One reason for the poor quality of service levels across different service industries is that managers often tend to solve service marketing problems with tools and techniques that are essentially meant for tangible products.
