The Main Idea
Producing goods is only the first step in filling consumers’ needs.
Getting goods to consumers involves a complex
transportation system that makes it possible for American
businesses to sell their goods throughout the country and the
world.
Reading Focus
 How are goods transported from manufacturers to
consumers?
 How are services delivered to consumers in the United States?
 How are goods and services marketed to consumers?

Transportation and the U.S. economy:
 Transportation systems move products around the
country. This is called distribution.
 Railroads—created a single large market in the United
States; chief source of transportation through the mid-
1900s
 Air transportation—carries mail and transports freight
with great speed
 Highway system—automobiles are the leading means of
transportation today

Benefits of mass marketing:
 Sells goods in large quantities
 Self-service—saves time and labor; many customers
can shop at the same time
 Standard packaging—fewer items must be weighed
or measured
 One-price system—prices are stamped onto the
products; eliminates most bargaining
 Bar codes—enable stores to keep up with inventories
and collect information

quantities.
