Small Business 101

MOJO asked:

“Small businesses” is a term that is economically generally associated with the extent and scale of business. The tax authorities categorized the “small business” as its sales volume of finances in a definite period of time, in most cases: one year. Another aspect of specifying a business as “small” one is their field of activity: one barber shop, or just “pizza” the room, or a single support in a market is “small businesses”. When one of those becomes “… a string of” it ‘s another story.  behavioral sciences, especially sociology, “of respect, small business” as a small organization. From the standpoint of sociology a business is a type of social organization. The discipline of sociology classifies organizations for their internal human relations and interaction. No matter how many people are involved, what ‘s account is the quality of the correlations between them. If everyone knows everyone, face to face for each name, and instrumental communication is informal and social communication, then it ‘ “HS; small organization”.  such informal relationships can work when we’re talking 2 to 100 employees, managers and subordinates together. Probably when it ‘organization we’ people of SA 100, ll is the formal division of labor, the definitions of the duties and regulations documented. On one hand – the 4 personal store: the lack of formality is extreme and there is no place for documentation and definitions, each is doing and if the boss, store owner, keeps the distance – he ‘ll lose the great advantage of instrumental relations with its three potential hot sellers. Between 4 and 100 personal the most common are small businesses The 30-40 personal. Even if the business owner tries to establish formal regulations he wouldn ‘t succeed. In a small organization as a people will behave as informal habits that dominate daily activities. There is no way that a new employee to sit down and read a book documented the address. What will probably happen is those he ‘ll be told what to do oral for a foreman greater integration and end imitating others in his workplace closure. If I ‘ll read written instructions insists he wouldn’ t find it because it doesn ‘t exist in such small and if he – he wouldn’ t be updated. This is the great failure of small organizations but its great advantage makes them much more flexible and adaptable to changes in real market time. The sociologist Max Weber demanded that the desirable ideal theoretical model of the organization more efficient is the “bureaucratic” model. Weber argued that this type of model is the only social organization that exceed human faults and weaknesses. Your organization will go a lot longer than individuals who are working for her. People will have to adapt to the needs and demands of organization and not the opposite. He wanted to meet the old clichà © saying the “The graveyards are packed with people who thought they were irreplaceable.” Just for argument, I ‘ll point only two of the critical Weber’ s model: One – The bureaucratic organizations suffer from stagnation. When a “business” big, wants to react to changes in its environment seriously got to be someone whose job is to detect such changes and to convene a meeting of the forum is nominated right up front to take care of such cases and according to heavy regulations to make decisions that will be achieved by those that are designated for the task. Such a procedure is taking too long while the small company is reacting immediately and move forward leaving behind big businesses. Two –  The biggest enemy of the bureaucratic organization is the informal into the formal organization. Much money, time and energy are lost trying to overcome the influence of the informal organization. In small companies, which are informal by nature, no such problem.  as a metaphor we can compare large and small businesses a steam ship and a sailing-boat. In the largest liner of steam, even if team members know each other personally, a routine work under strict regulations made by the officers formally aligned and the other lower ranked staff put into operation. If the weather turns and threatens the safety of the ship, no one will react without a strict command issued by the master. In the small team numbered a sailboat 40 foot no rows or work strictly defined. Everyone is doing all that is necessary when you need to be done. There captain but in case of sudden danger you can go to every sailor that he ‘ll do what’ s necessary without waiting to be told what to do. In small teams, who are working in a stressed environment, a small boat on the big blue sea or a small business in the jungle of wild markets, the team members know that if they wouldn ‘t work shoulder to carry them shoulders will be hanging from his neck collar. The committee is working amicably to each other for the benefit of the organization. The online print shop of AA is a classic example of a small business. It is organized by the following departments: 3) production (3) (2) the customer service sales management and administration (accounting and marketing 3) (3) of the graphic artists study (5) operators of the printers (and aid the development of Internet business and sending the final (7) (2) (2) to tighten these 30 workers in 100 square meters including machine shop and furniture. The print shop is running online and offline. Online, via the Internet, offer advertising and printed materials that promote such classics as: Business cards, magnets, flyers, stamps, books of accounts, envelopes , letterheads, invitations, stickers, signs, and so on. Offline, when the guest arrives and asks her request personally face to face. This is when the products are “heavy” as: books, catalogs, folders, small paper packaging materials are made, and such.  the small number of employees, operating under the charge right direction, create the consolidation, unification, integration, and forge the “spirit” of the team, according to interpersonal relationship that creates an identification, involvement and empathy with business goals. The lack of distance between managers, supervisors and other employees not damage discipline and high standards of moral and work ethic. The discussions, taking place from time to time in open forums, allowing all workers constructive criticism or suggestions for improvement. Workers can speak freely in periodic interviews and all channels of communication, including internal e-mailing, unlimited open. The relations of proximity allows flexible placement workers at various stations under various loads. The results of 30 workers are synergistic in nature and much more than just adding.              Â
