Tulisan Etika Bisnis 4

Peluang Bisnis untuk Mahasiswa yang Kreatif dan Inovativ

Peluang bisnis untuk mahasiswa di luar sana sebenarnya cukup banyak dan terbuka luas. Ditambah lagi dengan kenyataan begitu banyak lulusan perguruan tinggi yang menganggur, membuat mahasiswa harus membuka mata dan menyadari agar tidak terlalu bergantung pada lamaran kerja setelah lulus nanti.

Salah satunya adalah dengan memulai bisnis sejak mereka duduk di bangku kuliah. Peluang bisnis untuk mahasiswa bisa ditemukan di mana-mana. Tidak perlu bisnis besar dengan modal jutaan rupiah, cukup bisnis kecil-kecilan dengan modal semampunya. Sehingga setelah lulus, mahasiswa tersebut dapat melanjutkan bisnis yang sudah dirintisnya dengan lebih profesional.

Tentunya, peluang bisnis untuk mahasiswa ini membutuhkan kreativitas dan inovasi tinggi dalam pelaksanaannya. Perlu ide-ide segar dan keberanian mengambil resiko dalam perjalanannya. Anda sebagai mahasiswa yang masih muda tentu memiliki ide-ide orisinil dan energi yang penuh untuk berkompetensi. Ajaklah beberapa rekan mahsiswa anda sebagai partner untuk melakukan bisnis.

Berikut adalah contoh-contoh peluang bisnis untuk mahasiswa yang bisa anda lakukan sebagai langkah awal pencapaian bisnis besar nantinya.

1. Event organizer

Bagi anda mahasiswa yang aktif di organisasi kemahasiswaan, tentunya sering menjadi panitia dalam acara-acara yang diadakan oleh kampus.

Bekerja sama dengan perusahaan lain, mencari sponsorship, merangkai susunan acara dengan rapi, promosi, publikasi, dan lain sebagainya.

Gunakan pengalaman anda dalam mengadakan acara di kampus ini sebagai peluang bisnis bagi mahasiswa di dunia event organizer.

Ajak pula teman-teman anda untuk bekerja sama. Buatlah tim kerja, lalu selanjutnya anda dan rekan-rekan bisa mulai menawarkan proposal ke prusahaan-perusahaan untuk mengadakan acara seperti konser musik, pentas seni dan budaya, pertandungan olahraga, dan lain-lain.

Peluang bisnis ini masih terbuka luas mengingat event organizer yang ditangani mahasiswa belum banyak jumlahnya.

2. Desain unik produk pakai.

Peluang bisnis untuk mahasiswa, dari mahasiswa, dan oleh mahasiswa. Anda yang memiliki kreativitas dalam hal desain, dapat menggunakan potensi ini untuk berbisnis.

Biasanya fakultas, jurusan, UKM, ataupun himpunan mahasiswa membutuhkan sesuatu seperti baju, kaos, pin, jaket, ataupun tas sebagai identitas mereka.

Gunakan kebutuhan mereka sebagai peluang bisnis dan tawarkan desain-desain unik anda pada mereka.

Biasanya, mereka lebih tertarik dengan produk unik dari sesama teman-teman mahasiswa. Karena desainnya lebih unik dengan harga yang lebih murah.

3. Bisnis Online

Peluang bisnis untuk mahasiswa yang mudah dan murah. Anda hanya perlu komputer atau laptop serta koneksi internet.

Banyak peluang bisnis yang ditawarkan di dunia maya. Apalagi jika anda memiliki aktivitas blogging yang tinggi, dapat anda manfaatkan blog anda untuk meraih keuntungan seperti berjualan.

Searching, pelajari dengan teliti, dan pilih-pilih peluang bisnis yang ada di internet.

4. Handmade Production

Biasanya, peluang bisnis untuk mahasiswa di bidang ini disukai oleh mahasiswa wanita. Mereka suka dan kreatif jika dihadapkan pada peluang bisnis ini.

Contohnya seperti membuat kalung, gelang, anting-anting, kunciran rambut, atau asesoris lainnya dari bahan manik-manik.

Bagi mahasiswi, ke kampus tidak hanya untuk belajar namun juga harus berpenampilan modis. Karena itulah peluang bisnis untuk mahasiswa di bidang ini akan sangat menguntungkan.

Carilah bahan-bahan asesoris yang murah meriah seperti manik-manik, bahan daur ulang, mute-mute, dan sebagainya. Desain dan buatlah dengan kreasi yang unik, pakai ke kampus untuk contoh, lalu tawarkan pada teman-teman anda.

Tulisan di atas tentunya hanya sedikit dari sekian banyak peluang bisnis untuk mahasiswa lainnya. Gali kreativitas, lihat peluang bisnis yang bisa anda lakukan, dan buatlah inovasi-inovasi baru dari ide-ide cemerlang anda.

Sehingga setelah lulus dari bangku kuliah, anda tidak perlu khawatir jika tidak mendapat panggilan interview dari perusahaan manapun.

Dengan bisnis yang sudah anda bangun, bukan tidak mungkin giliran anda yang memanggil mahasiswa lulusan perguruan tinggi untuk di interview di perusahaan anda.
