1. Product

   In marketing, a product is anything that can be offered to a market that might satisfy a want or need. In retailing, products are called merchandise. In manufacturing, products are bought as raw materials and sold as finished goods. Commodities are usually raw materials such as metals and agricultural products, but a commodity can also be anything widely available in the open market. In project management, products are the formal definition of the project deliverables that make up or contribute to delivering the objectives of the project. In insurance, the policies are considered products offered for sale by the insurance company that created the contract. In economics and commerce, products belong to a broader category of goods. The economic meaning of product was first used by political economist Adam Smith. A related concept is subproduct, a secondary but useful result of a production process. Dangerous products, particularly physical ones, that cause injuries to consumers or bystanders may be subject to product liability.

Examples of product in a Sentence

1. David Bernstein:

   Bogren was a good sacrificial lamb for this campaign, because his nomination was the product of a compromise with the Democrats, so he didn't have a Republican senator or constituency to fight for him, it's a shame, though, that Josh Hawley demagogued the issue, not only attacking Bogren for vigorously representing a client, but for wildly misrepresenting the arguments Bogren made on behalf of his client to falsely make him look like an anti-Catholic bigot.

2. Harry Stern:

   I am extremely disappointed in Sheriff Essick's reaction to this unfortunate incident. I view Sheriff Essick hasty decision as a product of panic, political expediency and hindsight.

3. Chen Jiyao:

5. Greg Steube:

   I'm sure, because if he doesn't mention Ukraine at this point, he's absolutely going to have to start with that, given what's going on there. What I'd like to hear is that he's going to reinstitute domestic production of oil, which he's not going to, but that would be a great step to buffer, not only the inflation that we're seeing but the rising prices of oil and gas. We can produce our own domestic supply of that product right here in the United States, and he shut that down on day one of his presidency. That would help on so many different levels. Why are we right now bringing in Russian oil to this country? That's what I'd like to hear.
