Acceptability
There are many services which have
emerged recently, but the big question
is that “is the Indian society is ready
to accept such services?” For e.g.
professionally managed old age homes, or
day care centre and even wedding
management service. As our social and
cultural fabric is different it may take
some time to accept such services.
Awareness
As the service sector is new to economy
many individuals sections in society are
not aware of number of services being
offered in their towns and cities such
as maintenance of housing societies,
payment of all taxes and bills or
re-establishments service for an
executive who has been transformed one
city to other.
Affordability
Service as a concept being intangible
and many times taken as granted people
are not ready to pay a price for it.
Many a times the result of service take
a long time to materialized and pricing
of the service is a very delicate issue.
So may service offered must be
affordable.
Availability
Services have a wide spectrum of
activities. For e.g. in Delhi some
entrepreneurs started mobile maruti
service where that maruti van acts as
mobile service station. But looking at
the distance to be covered in Delhi and
traffic jams reach ability and
availability of service is a big
question. A simple example would be
children day care not just being
acceptable to people but also their
availability closer to home.
