The simple answer is: the installation and setup just about everything you can see and feel in a retail store while shopping.
Every display, sign, fixture, shelf, kiosk, cabinet, checkout and fitting room needs to be installed in a retail environment. Typically it is done by a merchandising services company. We are hired to execute retail merchandising programs that are designed by and for retailers and consumer package goods manufactures.
For example, when a national cell phone retailer launches a new model of phone, they need a company with nationwide reach to install a new display for their latest phones and hang new sales posters and graphics to the walls and windows. Teams of merchandising representatives are sent to each store on a predetermined schedule to perform the work. They are usually in a store for only a few hours but the new merchandising materials are ready for shoppers when they leave.
Another example would be a store remodel. Most large retailers remain in the same location for many years. Periodically, they will give the store a visual merchandising facelift to freshen up the store environment. Store designers and visual merchandisers team up to create an extensive plan to remodel the store. A merchandising services company will come into the store for an extended period of time and remove old fixtures and displays. They will then install all new fixtures and shelving, install new displays and perform a "product set" throughout the store. A product set is the actual placement on the shelf or display according to specific diagram, commonly called a planogram. Once completely executed, the new store will match the design.
These are just a few of the capabilities an experienced merchandising services company can provide.

i dont get what mass merchandising is :)
Well if you look at it by the basics you will see both use the same Net income = revenue - expenses. However the income statement for the service company subtracts the operating expenses from the revenues to arrive at net income. The merchandising company subtracts the cost of merchandising from the revenue to arrive at gross profit. It then subtracts all other operating expenses to arrive at net income.

Merchandising Companies purchase and sell directly and is ordinarily longer than a service company because of the inventory and its eventual sale lengthen the cycle, which differ merchandising and service companies.
Sales is included in both sales and merchandising companies.
Why is the normal operating cycle for a merchandising company likely to be longer than for a service company?
do some research
A merchandising business sells products to customers, whereas a service business provides or sells services to customers. For example: A beauty salon is considered a service business because you are providing a service to the customers. in the case of a beauty salon, the service could be cutting hair, doing someones eyebrows, etc. A sports store such as Sports Mart is considered a merchandising business because you are selling products to customers. in this case the products could be shoes, hockey sticks, etc. Merchandising business has inventory.
