Business

Business definition: when an activity is a “business” (“trying”)

A person/activity is considered a business when it meets four criteria:

  • Bears risk: the person carries business/capital risk.
  • Provides inputs: bears some or all of the required inputs/resources.
  • Produces output: produces goods and/or services for sale (or for personal consumption).
  • Conducts marketing: performs marketing activities for (all or part of) the produced goods/services.

Contrast with laborers/workers

  • Laborers/workers do not bear business capital risk and typically receive wages/salaries.
  • Therefore, they are not categorized as “trying” (business owners/operators).

Recording the business: unit of analysis = “establishment”

Once an activity qualifies as a business, determine whether it should be recorded as one establishment or multiple establishments.

Approaches to identify an establishment

Establishment can be identified using three approaches:

  • Business owner approach
  • Business location approach
  • Financial reports approach

Key decision questions (operationalized)

  • How many businesses exist in this place/building?
  • If multiple businesses exist:
    • Are they owned by the same person or different owners?
    • Do they operate only in this location or also in other places?
    • Are finances managed together or separately?

Concrete examples (counting businesses/establishments)

  1. Two stalls in the same building, different owners

    • Example: Soto stall (Mrs. Surti) + Chicken noodle stall (Mr. Andi) in one building
    • Result: counted as 2 businesses (different owners), even if location is the same.

  2. Same owner, different locations

    • Example: Mrs. Wiji runs a salon at her house and also at Tunjungan Plaza
    • Result: counted as 2 activities/businesses (different establishments by location).

  3. Mobile business with centralized bookkeeping

    • Example: Mr. Ahmad’s mobile coffee sales in various strategic locations
    • Employees move the cart, but all financial reports are managed together
    • Result: counted as 1 business (centralized owner/finance management despite multiple selling spots).

  4. Production and sales at different places

    • Example: Mr. Deden makes tempeh at home, sells it at the market
    • Result: counted as 2 businesses (production location ≠ sales location).

  5. Different operations under a hotel, managed separately

    • Example: Abali Hotel’s restaurant (Nusaara) managed separately by Mr. Budi
    • Result: counted as 2 efforts (separate management/organization).

  6. Same building + shared bookkeeping

    • Example: Same owner runs an IndaMart business selling ready-to-eat food/drinks (and other activities)
    • One building + one bookkeeping, not separated
    • Result: counted as 1 business.

Micro-business exception (practical rule)

For micro businesses where separating financial reports is difficult:

  • If the same owner runs business activities in the same location, they are counted as one business.

Additional operational guidance: counting by similarity of activities

Some activity types tend to be handled as one business when applicable:

  • Morning vs evening sales in the same building with non-separated reports (e.g., uduk rice morning + coffee evening) → 1 business.

  • For the following, the main activity is determined by the nature of the business or business permit:

    • Car/motorbike repair
    • Photocopy services
    • Salons/hair styling & cutting
    • Beauty clinics
    • Minimarkets/supermarkets/department stores
    • Karaoke facilities management

Frameworks / playbooks referenced

  • 4-part business qualification checklist (risk + inputs + output for sale/consumption + marketing)
  • Establishment determination method using:
    • Owner approach
    • Location approach
    • Financial reports approach

Metrics / KPIs

  • No quantitative business metrics or KPIs (e.g., revenue, CAC, LTV, churn, growth targets) are mentioned in this segment.

  • Only example names are mentioned (e.g., Mrs. Surti, Mr. Andi, Mrs. Wiji, Mr. Ahmad, Mr. Deden, Mr. Budi, Mr. Sani), but no presenters are identified.
