3 Business Ideas Worth Billions in the Jagat Online Business

May now have become a cliche to say that the future of online business in the homeland promised an abundance of luminescence rupiah. Yet the fact it is so. Google recently decided to officially open a representative office in Indonesia, after internal research concluded they are very deep: in the online business, market Indonesia is "really something".
Of course it would be mak nyus if only we also have the opportunity to surf a wave of online business. This time, I will share with you three online business ideas are very promising. Three business idea is actually "too valuable" to be shared just like that, and it should be feasible only dealt with the serious investor. Three business idea is worth billions because the profit potential is so promising nancep.
Without further ado, let's surgery three online business ideas one by one.
Behind the uproar online home business world five years later, is actually not a lot of new business website up that really kicks. Detik.com and all its competitors so it just so-so (ndak changed a lot since 15 years ago!). Tokobagus.com and Berniaga.com, which is now advertising on TV like it, well it's just buying and selling forum.
Amid such a landscape of online business, then the following three online business ideas are very worthy of consideration.
Online Business Idea # 1: PanduanKonsumenLengkap.Com. This idea is simple true (oh yes, and the simple ideas are usually much more phenomenal. If ndak believe, look at Google). Imagine, one day you want to buy a new phone, and are confused about choosing what brand and type. Or imagine you want to know which phone carrier rates are the cheapest and best. Or imagine you are unsure most good school for your child.
Okay, normally you would googling, and as always, the results are too diverse and scattered everywhere (and often it ndak satisfactory). To this day, there is no single website with a very complete and detailed answers to all of the options handed over to the neat, and only once - two clicks. Also designed with very beautiful.
This first business idea is to imagine something beautiful: a web of detail and a complete (and very friendly with navigation) displays a comparison, the features, strengths and weaknesses of almost all consumer product categories that are often sought: from gadget to insurance products, ranging from credit card products to motorcycles. All accompanied by pictures, demo video (so you can know for real how it compares to the features iPhone and BB), as well as links to the intended product.
Just info: in the UK, the above idea is realized by two young children. And you know what? Each month they get a profit of 5 billion dollars per month from advertising revenue.
Online Business Idea # 2: KursusManajemenOnline.com. Online business idea is clear: how to provide training courses or management (such as leadership skills, problem solving skills, presentation skills, etc.) online. -Modules in the communication via the learning portal, equipped with real time interactive tutorials, and online video teaching attractive.
To this day there is no such web online learning. Market is highly prospective, especially if it can build alliances with companies with offices away from the big city.
Online course costs just Rp 250 thousand per month (much cheaper than the cost of attending is now $ 1 million per day). Seeing its potential, the target number of participants may reach 2000 people a month. With it, you can earn 500 million per month with the smooth. Interested?
Business Idea # 2: InfoMobilLengkap.Com. Okay, okay I know, in the homeland, the web about the number has hundreds of cars. The problem: all of the existing website's content abal-abal, incomplete, annoying and amateurish.
Web-content web that new products are luxury cars with images taken from some where. But that is not wanted by the consumer web in the country. They are looking for example: info and a complete guide to various brands both new or used car. Also a comparison (advantages and disadvantages) of various brands of cars are available; so if you want to buy a used car is still cool, you can know why the 2008 Honda Jazz output is still better than the Yaris output in 2009.
Again, here the simple idea (but miraculously, to this day none of the web that provide it), namely: how to complete all the information and details, all the info from the A and Z (about the price of a used car that is updated every week, of video test drive new cars and used cars; also a video on how to install the spare tire - a lot of car owners who know how to put up ndak spare tire) is presented in a neat and easy to find.
If all the contents above are presented with a complete and consistent, within three years will be the web's leading car information in Indonesia. And then, you can sell that website for USD 60 billion (do not be surprised, rumah123.com sites whose content is so-so only sold at a price that much).
With 60 billion cash, you can retire and take a free umra compatriot neighbors. And stopped by the return of Hong Kong. Ah, another Hong Kong ..... :)
That's three decent online business ideas are executed. With the support of a team of competent and capable, I believe three business ideas that can really bring in the mak nyus profit.
If you have friends interested and serious investor, please contact me via private email. I would gladly be the advisor to create one of three online business ideas above. And oh yes, of course I asked for the allocation of shares. Number of ndak big-very big, just 10% only. I am not kidding, guys!

UNDERSTANDING MANAGEMENT

A. Introduction.
Management science is actually the same age with human life, why is that because basically humans in their daily lives can not be separated from the principles of management, either directly or indirectly.

Management Functions

Management has been described as a social process involving responsibility for economical and effective planning & regulation of operation of an enterprise in the fulfillment of given purposes. It is a dynamic process consisting of various elements and activities. These activities are different from operative functions like marketing, finance, purchase etc. Rather these activities are common to each and every manger irrespective of his level or status.

Different experts have classified functions of management. According to George & Jerry, “There are four fundamental functions of management i.e. planning, organizing, actuating and controlling”. According to Henry Fayol, “To manage is to forecast and plan, to organize, to command, & to control”. Whereas Luther Gullick has given a keyword ’POSDCORB’ where P stands for Planning, O for Organizing, S for Staffing, D for Directing, Co for Co-ordination, R for reporting & B for Budgeting. But the most widely accepted are functions of management given by KOONTZ and O’DONNEL i.e. Planning, Organizing, Staffing, Directing and Controlling.

For theoretical purposes, it may be convenient to separate the function of management but practically these functions are overlapping in nature i.e. they are highly inseparable. Each function blends into the other & each affects the performance of others.

1. Planning

   It is the basic function of management. It deals with chalking out a future course of action & deciding in advance the most appropriate course of actions for achievement of pre-determined goals. According to KOONTZ, “Planning is deciding in advance - what to do, when to do & how to do. It bridges the gap from where we are & where we want to be”. A plan is a future course of actions. It is an exercise in problem solving & decision making. Planning is determination of courses of action to achieve desired goals. Thus, planning is a systematic thinking about ways & means for accomplishment of pre-determined goals. Planning is necessary to ensure proper utilization of human & non-human resources. It is all pervasive, it is an intellectual activity and it also helps in avoiding confusion, uncertainties, risks, wastages etc.
   

2. Organizing

   It is the process of bringing together physical, financial and human resources and developing productive relationship amongst them for achievement of organizational goals. According to Henry Fayol, “To organize a business is to provide it with everything useful or its functioning i.e. raw material, tools, capital and personnel’s”. To organize a business involves determining & providing human and non-human resources to the organizational structure. Organizing as a process involves:
   
   • Identification of activities.
   • Classification of grouping of activities.
   • Assignment of duties.
   • Delegation of authority and creation of responsibility.
   • Coordinating authority and responsibility relationships.

3. Staffing

   It is the function of manning the organization structure and keeping it manned. Staffing has assumed greater importance in the recent years due to advancement of technology, increase in size of business, complexity of human behavior etc. The main purpose o staffing is to put right man on right job i.e. square pegs in square holes and round pegs in round holes. According to Kootz & O’Donell, “Managerial function of staffing involves manning the organization structure through proper and effective selection, appraisal & development of personnel to fill the roles designed un the structure”. Staffing involves:
   
   • Manpower Planning (estimating man power in terms of searching, choose the person and giving the right place).
   • Recruitment, selection & placement.
   • Training & development.
   • Remuneration.
   • Performance appraisal.
   • Promotions & transfer.

4. Directing

   It is that part of managerial function which actuates the organizational methods to work efficiently for achievement of organizational purposes. It is considered life-spark of the enterprise which sets it in motion the action of people because planning, organizing and staffing are the mere preparations for doing the work. Direction is that inert-personnel aspect of management which deals directly with influencing, guiding, supervising, motivating sub-ordinate for the achievement of organizational goals. Direction has following elements:
   
   • Supervision
   • Motivation
   • Leadership
   • Communication
   Supervision- implies overseeing the work of subordinates by their superiors. It is the act of watching & directing work & workers.
   Motivation- means inspiring, stimulating or encouraging the sub-ordinates with zeal to work. Positive, negative, monetary, non-monetary incentives may be used for this purpose.
   Leadership- may be defined as a process by which manager guides and influences the work of subordinates in desired direction.
   Communications- is the process of passing information, experience, opinion etc from one person to another. It is a bridge of understanding.
   

5. Controlling

   It implies measurement of accomplishment against the standards and correction of deviation if any to ensure achievement of organizational goals. The purpose of controlling is to ensure that everything occurs in conformities with the standards. An efficient system of control helps to predict deviations before they actually occur. According to Theo Haimann, “Controlling is the process of checking whether or not proper progress is being made towards the objectives and goals and acting if necessary, to correct any deviation”. According to Koontz & O’Donell “Controlling is the measurement & correction of performance activities of subordinates in order to make sure that the enterprise objectives and plans desired to obtain them as being accomplished”. Therefore controlling has following steps:
   
   1. Establishment of standard performance.
   2. Measurement of actual performance.
   3. Comparison of actual performance with the standards and finding out deviation if any.
   4. Corrective action.

Outsource your payroll management

Every small business owner runs through one problem – the absence of a proper human resources system to manage the various important aspects of your company. An HR is responsible for numerous things such as recruitment, training, manpower management, payroll management and whatnot. In some SME’s, all this work is being done by one person only. Naturally that person needs all the help he or she can have.

I think one of the most important aspect of HR is manpower and payroll management. Here’s an article on ehow explaining pay roll. Imagine your salary coming 1 day late every month. Or a wrong cheque amount being made. Or, Sometimes it may happen, one of your employees receiving a salary much higher than what he should be getting. That’s money from your pocket right?

Payroll management itself covers a lot of different aspects such as calculating an employees salary, deducting taxes, and disbursing the salaries amongst your employees. It sounds simple, but multiply this work by the number of people you have in your organization and you would know how much time is being spent on payroll management.

So here’s my advice for Small business managers & owners. First learn the payroll management process. Secondly, try to find some good softwares which do your payroll calculation for you. That’s the best action you can take. If you have an external software / service managing your payroll, all you have to do is confirm your action and your payrolls will be taken care of. Sweet isn’t it? Imagine the amount of time you would be saving.

I browsed around the internet and came across Intuit. Intuit is an online payroll calculator. You can do online payroll management through their payroll software known as quickbooks and you can do offline payroll management through outsourcing all your payroll activities to their customer care centre. The payrolls will be provided at the right time with the proper amount.

There may be many other softwares but I found the layout and usability of Intuit to be very good. Plus it helps you in paying your contractors too. So that is an added advantage. Overall, an online payroll calculator will lessen your workload (especially if you have only one person handling all different activities of an HR).
