To be more specific to my own reply, when you invoke a web service method, you are instantiating your object and then immediately destroying it, just like if you used CFINVOKE to call a method directly. If you want to manage state, you can write to a persistent store (Session, Application, Server scopes, databases, etc, although the Session scope relies on the caller to pass the session token on subsequent requests, which may not happen).
