Business
Definition
According to some experts, the business is:
1. Musselman and Jackson (1992) they mean that business is an activity that
meets the needs and desires of the community economically, the company is
organized to engage in such activity.
2. Gloss, Steade and Lowry (1996) they mean that a business is the sum of all
activities organized by people working in the field of commerce and industries
that provide goods and services to the need to maintain and improve the
standards and quality of life.
3. Allan Afuah (2004) he means that the business is a set of activities
undertaken to create a way to develop and transform the resources into goods or
services that consumers want.
But I think the business is an
economic activity that can generate a profit or value added. Business is not
just to do with producing a product and then sell it, but it can be done in
several ways such as investing in shares of a company or business real estate
is a business activity which we rent out and develop an some homes or
buildings.
Here are some examples of businesses that can be run:
• Manufacturing is a business that manufactures products derived from raw
materials or component parts, then sold for profit. Examples are manufacturing
companies producing physical goods such as cars or pipes.
• Business Services is a business that produces intangible goods, and earn a
profit by charging for services they provide. Examples of service businesses is
a consultant and psychologist.
• Retailers and distributors are those who act as intermediaries between
producers and consumers. Most shops and consumer-oriented companies are
distributors or retailers. See also: Franchising
• Agriculture and mining is a business that produces raw materials, such as
plants or minerals.
• Financial Business is business benefit from the investment and management of
capital.
• Business information is businesses generate profits primarily from the
turnover-back intellectual property (intelellectual property).
• Utilities are businesses that operate for the public services, such as
electricity and water, and are usually funded by the government.
• Real estate is a business that generates profits by selling, leasing, and
property development, houses, and buildings.
• Bus transportation is a business advantage by delivering goods or individual
from a location to another.
If
you want to do business, what business would you run?
If I run a business, then I would choose a business buying and selling gold
jewelry. Why did I choose to do business buying and selling gold? Gold is not a
basic need someone, but for some gold is berhaga goods if owned. In addition to
beautify themselves with sparkle, gold can also be a good investment for the
future.
Gold is not an easy stuff out, or in other words, gold is an item that can be
invested not only for the present but also for the future. Gold also does not
have a fixed price, although sometimes the price of gold market "up and
down" is not an obstacle for people to buy gold. In addition to the favorable
shiny objects is also much demand.
Not too much competition in the gold business, indeed in some traditional
markets or modern market existing gold shops but many customers who come to buy
gold jewelry shop can be said is never empty of shoppers. Competition can arise
due to differences in sale price down. This is because the store is following
the market price. However, the present models of jewelry that will attract many
takers.
How
marketing
A bit difficult to determine how the business of marketing gold, usually we can
only sell it in place (at the store) is. But even this by selling gold can be
effective because the risk of jobless when selling goods online or door to door
can be minimized.
