Intangibility

Intangibility, and variability are the two which are most easily overcome. Making the product or service tangible is the only way to fight intangibility. The sales person can go the extra mile and bring the product to the customer. Like the book states, the sales person can bring the service to life. This can be done by taking a photo album of the venue, and food or cake samples to the bride and groom before the day of the wedding. Doing so allows the two parties to work out any issues before the day of the event. Variability is the second concern when it comes to service marketing.

Inconsistency is the understanding that what you purchase may be different each time it is used.
