    Product

    Product refers to an item, good or service that is capable of satisfying the needs or wants of customers. It is one of the crucial elements of the marketing mix and is offered for sale in the market. Product is simply a means or medium of providing service to the customers.

    Examples: A retail store sells goods (clothes, groceries, etc.) and a cleaning business sells services (housing cleaning). Both would be considered the "product" of that business.

    Price

    Price refers to the value that is put for a product. It depends on costs of production, segment targeted, ability of the market to pay, supply-demand and a host of other direct and indirect factors. Prices will not always be set at the level which will maximize sales or short run profits.
