Declare a service like so:

class HelloService < ActiveService::Base
  def initialize(name)
    @name = name
  end

  def say_hello
    "Hello #{@name}!"
  end
end

Initialize service object:

hello_service = HelloService.new('David')

Execute service:

hello_service.say_hello
# => 'Hello David!'

Of course you can define other methods.
