Due to the complexity and characteristics of commercial services, organization of commercial activities should provide flexibility depending on the time of the request, the moment of performance and the consumer behavior.Therefore,yhe knowledge of the characteristics of business services and their consequences for consumers and traders can influence the efforts to achieve results and to assume commercial risks.A briefly presentation of the commercial services development and their effects in the activity of a successful furniture trader is provided in order to demonstrate the importance of this type of services.
