What is a business? ๐Ÿข

  • At its core, a business seeks to satisfy human needs and wants through a variety of activities.
  • Real-World Example: Imagine a bakery (business). They use flour, sugar, and other ingredients (inputs) to make delicious cakes and pastries (output) to satisfy your sweet tooth (a want)!

Types of business activities

  • Producing or extracting: Growing crops or mining raw materials.
    • Example: A farm growing strawberries or a company mining gold.
  • Creating products: Manufacturing and assembling goods.
    • Example: A factory making toys or gadgets.
  • Providing services: Offering non-tangible assistance or activities.
    • Example: A hair salon giving haircuts or a gym offering fitness classes.

Diverse business approaches ๐ŸŽญ

  • Single Activity Businesses: Focus on one type of activity.
    • Example: An olive farm.
  • Multi-Activity Businesses: Engage in multiple related or unrelated activities.
    • Example: A farm that grows olives and also produces its own olive oil.

The business value creation process ๐Ÿš€

  • Businesses take resources (inputs) and process them to generate products or services (outputs).
  • By doing this, they add value to the inputs. That's how a raw apple is turned into a yummy apple pie!
  • The reward? Revenue from sales and recognition!

Unconventional businesses? ๐Ÿค”

  • Not all entities that operate like businesses are traditionally seen as businesses.
  • Charities, religious organizations, clubs โ€“ they all operate with business principles.
    • Example: A church may need financial resources for renovations or a charity might sell merchandise to fund its causes.
