What is the difference between goods and services?

29 December 2015 by

Goods are products, Like computers and bottles.

Services are activities performed for the benefit of someone else, such as IT services or catering.  

The difference between goods and services is quite confusing. but you can distinguish between them by asking yourself if  your customers is paying for a product or paying you to perform a specific activity?  

If your customer is paying you for a product, such as a bottle or a computer, then you have goods.
However, if your customer is paying you to perform an activity, such as catering or IT services, then you have services. You may list both goods and services in an application.  You must list the specific goods/services for which you want to register your mark.
