and services. To others, it refers to the production of goods and services.

social process which involves the assembly and utilization of resources to
produce goods and services in order to satisfy the needs of society. To
ellaborate what Professor Lawrence Gitman and Professor Feliciano R.
Fajardo says every society comprises of different individuals with different
needs and wants. Business serves as the vehicle to provide the goods or
services that will satisfy needs and wants or full fill people satisfaction. Now

 Goods and Services Defined

business focus on goods or services alone the others offer both. Goods are
things we can touch examples bread, soap, shampoo, pencil and bag while
Services are things that we cannot touch but still we consume examples
haricut, manicure, pedicure, massage and transporation. Both can be use
for personal or industrial purposes.

As an entrepreneur your mission is to fulfill societies

satisfaction. But how can you able to do that? First you have to determine
their needs and wants.What is needs and wants? What is their connection
to societies satisfaction? Are they different from each other?

Let’s find out

Need Vs Want
Socities consumption of goods and services depends widely on how
individual or families determine their needs and wants. Needs are those
things we need inorder for us to live or survive or things we cannot live
without while Wants is anything that indicates luxury or anything not
necessary for survival in other words things we can live without . Some
prioritize needs more than wants or viceversa it depends on the level of
satisfaction or full fillment of individual. Now that you know the difference
between the two. Try to determine your own personal needs and wants?
