Improvement on goods and services definition[edit]
In the current article the terms are explained as a spectrum and nothing is exactly one or the other, but from management point of view goods are clearly distinguished from services and there is no mix between them.
The difference is with the ownership of the initial state of the object. When a company sells goods, they are the property of the enterprise completely and throughout, while when a company performs a service, the object is the property of the client. I wrote an example of the article here Goods and services (management): Difference between revisions - Wikipedia
What is everyone's opinion? In my opinion the current information does not define and differentiates between goods and services at all due to the spectrum situation and goods-services continuum. In management practice it is not like that. Leonard Gauthier (talk) 15:36, 9 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
