When you read this page, you will see topics related to business. I organized this article into several issues. In the beginning, I presented what a business is and what its activities are. Then, the following section discusses starting a business and how entrepreneurs play a role in business activities. The following topics are business organization and its types, organizational objectives, business environment, and business growth.
At the end, you will find sub-topics related to the four main business functions, including marketing, human resources, operations and finance.
What is business?
Business refers to organizations or activities dealing in producing goods or providing services. Businesses play a vital role in our life. They exist to fulfill our needs and wants, and demands can come from individuals, companies, organizations, or governments. They may be profit-oriented, or they may not.
