Argiope lobata is a species of spider with a range that extends across Africa, and into southern Asia and even parts of Europe. They are not dangerous to humans.
These spiders can be identified by their silvery abdomens that are ridged speckled with black. The males are quite small in size, measuring only 6mm. The females on the other hand, can reach up to 25mm and are more noticeably colored.
Argiope lobata, like all members of its genus, builds zig-zag patterned webs. They also build thicker white lines, called stabilimentum, into their webs. These lines help to camouflage the spider from prey, but also make the webs noticeable by larger animals (so that they don't get destroyed).
When it comes time to breed, the male spiders will build webs next to the females. After mating, the female will place her egg sac on the web, and this sac can contain as many as 1,400 eggs. Interestingly, the eggs hatch during the autumn months, but to stay warm the tiny spiderlings remain in the sac through winter, emerging when it is warm again in spring. IUCN Status : Not Listed Location :Africa, Europe, Asia Size : Body length up to 6mm (males), 25mm (females)
Classification : Phylum : Arthropoda -- Class : Arachnida -- Order : Araneae Family : Araneidae -- Genus : Argiope -- Species : A. lobata
The Sacred Crocodile is an amazingly fascinating animal, because until very recently modern science was unaware that it was a unique species at all. Though there were some theories (based on skull shape) that date back to the early 19th century, the general thought was that all large Crocodiles in the Nile region belonged to the same species.
Well, as of 2011, we now know that there are actually two different creatures. Also surprising? They aren't closely related at all! In fact, the man who originally DNA sequenced a skin sample from a Sacred Crocodile kept running the test over and over because he thought something was wrong!
Nile Crocodiles and Sacred Crocodiles look very alike, but have different genetics, slightly different scute patterns, and very different behaviors. In fact, Ancient Egyptians knew all about the different temperaments of the Crocodiles that they lived among, and recognized that there were two different species thousands of years ago. The Sacred Crocodiles were more docile and tame, and were kept close to temples where they were considered, you guessed it, sacred. Additional evidence has even shown that Sacred Crocodiles were the ones mummified, not Nile Crocodiles at all!
The modern "discovery" of this second species could mean problematic things for the Nile Crocodiles. Their range may actually be smaller than estimated, and the Crocodiles skin trade will need to be carefully monitored and reevaluated. The exact population count of the Sacred Crocodile is unknown, but it is believed to be rather rare. IUCN Status : Not Listed Location :Africa Size : Length up to 16ft (5m)
Classification : Phylum : Chordata -- Class : Reptilia -- Order : Crocodylia Family : Crocodylidae -- Genus : Crocodylus -- Species : C. suchus
Masih berhubungan dengan sebuah peluang usaha dibidang kuliner, kali ini saya akan mengulas sedikit mengenai bisnis kuliner namun dengan servis delivery order (pesan antar). Okay langsung saja, beberapa hari yang lalu ketika saya dna rekan sedang dalam perjalanan di salah satu jalan ringroad utara di Yogyakarta. Saat itu disamping kami ada sebuah mobil pick up tertutup yang dibelakangnya ada gambar menu makanan warna warni khas sebuah produk kuliner. Saya pikir ini mobil apa? eh ternyata itu adalah sebuah mobil yang sedang mengantar pesanan makanan ke beberapa tempat sepertinya jika melihat tulisan yang ada di mobil tersebut bahwa mereka menerima pesan antar jenis makanan yang tentunya mereka jual.
Mungkin sedikit gambaran model bisnis diatas sebenarnya merupakan model bisnis yang sudah ada sebelumnya. Perusahaan besar seperti Pizza Hut, KFC dan sejenisnya melayani servis seperti ini juga. Nah jika kita ingin memanfaatkan peluang usaha dibidang kuliner tentu saja kita bisa mengambil ide delivery servis tersebut, karena itu merupakan nilai tambah. Sebagai contoh yg sudah memanfaatkan peluang bisnis delivery order ini adalah sebuah perusahaan makanan namun jenis seafood yang mereka sudah melayani beberapa kota di Indonesia. Screenshoot bsia dilihat dibawah ini.
website diatas adalah website kraukk.com sebuah perusahaan yang bergerak dibidang kuliner seafood namun mereka menyediakan servis antar kepada konsumennya. Memang itu merupakan sebuah layanan tambahan yang berbeda menurut saya. Konsumen tinggal meemsan dan produk makanan sudah sampai dirumah dan konsuemn tidak harus keluar rumah.
Peluang bisnis yang menambahkan layanan khusus seperti pesan antar diatas memang membutuhkan cost/biaya tambahan lagi bagi pengusahanya, karena perlu biaya bbm, biaya kurir dan tentunya biaya terkait lainnya misal penyusutan kendaraan, namun semuanya memang harus diperhitungkan dengan matang karena itu merupakan layanan tambahan yang bisa membuat konsuemn tetap setia bahkan selalu bertambah. Dan tentunya jenis kuliner yang diantar juga harus anda pilih, sekiranya jenis yang tidak mudah tumpah atau bagaimana silahkan anda survey dan tentukan.
Jika anda mengambil ide usaha ini maka strategi marketing harus cukup bagus. Tetap sosial media, brosur, ikan baris di koran menjadi sebuah pilihan yang cukup bagus untuk melancarakan promosi anda ini. SIstem membership akan memudahkan anda memanage dan menjaga loyalitas konsumen. Promo tertentu yang bisa anda sajikan ke kosumen di waktu-waktu tertentu saya rasa bisa membuat peluang usaha jenis ini akan semakin diminati konsumen anda nantinya.
Silahkan rencanakan ide bisnis ini dengan cukup baik, analisa kebutuhan modal poduksi dan juga marketing. Dan tentunya layanan tambahan seperti delivery order menjadi sebuah layanan yang harus diperhitungakan karena saya rasa ini akan diminati konsumen anda nantinya. Terima Kasih
The James's Flamingo is a small South American species that lives high up in the plateaus of the Andean Mountains. They feed off of different algae and diatoms that are found in high elevation saline lakes. Like all Flamingos they are excellent filter feeders, and use their long necks and curved bills to dunk their faces in the water and snatch up tiny meals.
This species is the palest pink of all the Flamingos, and can also be told apart by their red eye patches, bright yellow bills, and orange legs. They are named for naturalist Henry Berkeley James, who went on expeditions to the Andes in order to collect species of natural flora and fauna in the late 19th century.
James's Flamingos have a favorite breeding location -- Laguna Colorada in Bolivia. They gather there in the thousands, and perform giant group displays prior to finding a mate. Once mates are selected, the two birds will stay together until one dies. They produce only one egg each season, laying it on a volcano-shaped nest built out of mud. Chicks are born with fluffy grey feathers, but will gradually lighten and turn more pink over time. It can take up to six years to reach sexual maturity. IUCN Status : Near Threatened Location :South America Size : Length up to 3ft (.9m)
Classification : Phylum : Chordata -- Class : Aves -- Order : Phoenicopteriformes Family : Phoenicopteridae -- Genus : Phoenicoparrus-- Species : P. jamesi
Happy 3 years of animals everybody! Wow, it's weird to think it's been that long already!
Today we'll be learning all about the rare and beautiful Snow Leopard, an endangered species of cat that lives in the snowy mountains of Asia. These striking creatures have thick furry coats, stocky bodies, wide paws, and small ears. All of those traits help them to survive in cold, rocky climates. Another great adaptation? Their tails! They have tails that help them to balance while moving about, and they can nearly double the overall body length.
Snow Leopards are solitary, and the only times they are seen with others of their own species are during mating, or when a mother is rearing her cubs. She will usually only have one or two cubs at a time, and they are helpless at birth. They first leave the den around 2-4 months, but will live with mom for up to two years!
During their time with mom, young Snow Leopard learn to hunt. These cats can take down prey three times their size (like Ibex and Deer) but they also eat rodents, rabbits, and other small creatures as well.
Sadly, these cats are declining in number. Poaching is one of the threats, as they are killed for their skins and for their body parts which are used in traditional medicines. They are also losing their habitat, and it is estimated that there are only about 6,000 left in the wild. Luckily they can be bred in captivity, and there are an additional 600-700 in zoos worldwide. There are also several agencies working to promote the conservation of the species.
IUCN Status : Endangered Location :Asia Size : BodyLength up to 50in (1.3m), Weight up to 120lbs

Today is the birthday of famed painter and naturalist John James Audubon, a man who is especially notable for his work The Birds of America, which was made between 1827 and 1838.. That massive work, which contains around 450 plates of North American birds, actually has images of six birds that are now extinct.
The Eskimo Curlew is one of those six... maybe. It is a bird that is officially listed as Critically Endangered, but the last official live sighting was in 1962. There have been reports of varying reliability since then, but the exact status is still up for some debate.
Eskimo Curlews were once a species with an incredibly large population-- they were one of the most common shorebirds in the Arctic. They bred in the far northern reaches of Canada and Alaska, but made astounding long migrations all the way to Argentina.
Unfortunately those migrations were the reason for their population decline. Hunters started to target the birds during these movements, and the wild ranges that they relied on for food during their journeys were destroyed for farmland. Around 2 million birds were killed every year at the end of the 19th century.
The species is protected in most of it's range, but it may be too late now. IUCN Status : Critically Endangered Location :North and South America (migrates) Size : Length up to 12in (30cm)
Classification : Phylum : Chordata -- Class : Aves -- Order : Charadriiformes Family : Scolopacidae -- Genus : Numenius -- Species : N. borealis
Would you be shocked to hear that today's bird is a relative of the Crows and Ravens? This bright, colorful creature belongs to the very same family as those often-darker birds, an example of how brilliant things can be in other parts of the world!
As you may have guessed from the name, the Sri Lanka Blue Magpie is found only on the island of Sri Lanka. They live in the hilly rainforests, grouping up into small flocks of 6-8 birds. These birds are primarily carnivorous, and feed on small reptiles, amphibians, and insects.
Sadly, these gorgeous blue and chestnut birds are considered to be Vulnerable. Habitat loss due to logging and agriculture is the biggest threat. Air pollution has also damaged the rainforests that these birds call home. Luckily, they are protected by the Sri Lankan government, and live in a handful of protected parks. IUCN Status : Vulnerable Location :Sri Lanka Size : Length up to 18in (45cm)
Classification : Phylum : Chordata -- Class : Aves -- Order : Passeriformes Family : Corvidae -- Genus : Urocissa -- Species : U. ornata
The Barasingha is a medium-large Deer that is found in the swamps, marshlands, and grasslands of southern Asia. In fact, they are sometimes referred to as "Swamp Deer."
On average, the Barasingha live in groups of around 10-20 deer, though during the breeding season these herds can become much larger. At that time the males will fight fiercely for the right to breed with large harems of females. Their large antlers that have as many as 20 tongs are instrumental in these fights.
Sadly, these Deer are now considered Vulnerable, and are no long found at in in large portions of their historical range. It is estimated that 3,000-4,000 remain in the wild. Poaching is a big factor in the decline, as is habitat loss. Not only do these eat the tall grasses that are being destroyed, but they also rely on those grasses to hide their young.
Interestingly, though these Deer are rare in their natural habitat, they are bred for stock hunting in some parts of the United States. Permits to hunt them on these private reserves can cost as much as $6,000. While this sounds really morbid, portions of those high fees in Texas are actually going to fund conservation back in India. In fact, the exotic hunting industry is one of the largest financial supporters of Barasingha Conservation on the planet! IUCN Status : Vulnerable Location :South Asia Size : Height up to 53in (1.3m), Weight up to 600lbs (272kg)

Rasanya tidak mungkin dalam jangka waktu kurang lebih 5 bulan US$1 Juta (1 juta dollar / setara -+ 9 milliar rupiah) dapat diraih oleh pemuda berusia 21 tahun yang saat itu dengan modal yang sangat minim mampu memanfaatkan peluang usaha yang ada di sekitar dia. Mau tahu kisah sukses nya? mari coba kita ceritakan sedikit disini.
Memanfaatkan sebuah peluang bisnis memang tidak harus dengan modal yang besar. Modal yang minim dan seadanya namun dibalut dengan kreatifitas dan jiwa pantang menyerah bisa membuat bisnis usaha yang dirintis mampu meraup untung yang fantastis, tidak terkecuali dengan seorang pemuda yang berasal dari kota kecil Cricklade yang jaraknya tidak terlalu jauh dari London Inggris mampu menggali ide bisnis dan memanfaatkan kesempatan dengan kreatifitasnya dan mampu sukses meraih apa yang dia inginkan.
Pemuda ini bernama Alex Tew, didasari keadaan ekonomi yang memang seadanya dan dituntut untuk segera memenuhi kebutuhan hidup dia tidak terkecuali ia harus mendaftar di sebuah college yang waktunya hanya 1 bulan lagi dan dia sudah bener-beenr bokek. Nah untuk keluar dari permasalahan ini dia mulai berpikir "bagaimana mendapatkan US$1 juta".
Setelah berpikir dan mengolah otak bagaimana cara keluar dari permasalahan yang membelengu tersebut akirnya di amenemukan ide yaitu dengan menjual 1 juta space iklan mini berukuran 10x10 pixel dengan cukup membayar US$1 saja untuk pengiklan. Iklan tersebut berupa ogo dan link yang mengarah ke website pengiklan. Dan dia memulai dengan membeli sebuah hosting murah dengan sisa uang yang dia miliki dan segera membuat website untuk penempatan iklan tersebut. Diawal mula tentu saja dia menghubungi kerabat teman dekat dan juga kolega dan meminta mereka memasang iklan di website baru tersebut. Dengan hasil penjualan space iklan yang dia hasilkan pertama tersebut dia pakai untuk modal jumpa pers dengan mengundang wartawan lokal dikota tersebut. Dan tidak lupa dengan cerdiknya (tentu saja kita harus kreatif dalam menangkap berbagai peluang usaha) si Alex Tew ini menulis artikel berjudul "Mahasiswa Bokek Menemukan Cara Unik untuk Mendapatkan Uang Kuliah" dan tidak lupa membagikan ke waratwan-wartawan yang dia undang tersebut untuk dimuat di harian lokal mereka.
Singkat cerita berita mengenai tulisan Alex Tew ini mulai tersebar kemana-mana dan mulai dimuat media lainnya juga di Inggris, tentu saja ini menjadi medi apublikasi gratis bagi alex dan jelas ini sebuah hal yang luar biasa dan sangat membantu pemuda ini dalam menjalankan peluang bisnis barunya tersebut. Semakin lama dari mulut ke mulut, forum online, para blogger mulai mencari informasi dan ingin tahu mengenai Alex Tew ini, dan semakin lama semakin poluer serta banyak pengiklan yang ingin ikut populer dengan beriklan di website Alex Tew yang ia jual dengan harga per pixel tadi.
Tidak lama sejak ia menjalankan ide usaha ini yaitu sekitar 2 minggu pemuda 21 tahun ini sudah mendapatkan uang sebanyak US$40 ribu, dan ini cukup untuk membiayai kuliah dia selama 3 tahun kedepan. Dan tidak lama kemudian banyak media yang berasa dari kurang lebih sekitar 35 negara lainnya turut serta mengulas mengenai Alex Tew ini, dengan hal ini maka semakin banyak pula para pengiklan yang ingin beriklan di website Alex, nah dalam kurun waktu kurang lebih 5 bulan web iklan tersebut sudah mencapai target US$1 juta. Luar biasa. Dibawah ini saya lampirkan tampilan website Alex Tew(milliondollarhomepage.com) yang isinya logo dan link para pengiklan.
Dari cerita diatas, apa sih yang bisa kita ambil hikmahnya? saya rasa sangat banyak peluang usaha bisnis yang ada di sekitar kita baik itu kecil maupun besar. Jika kita bisa memanfaatkannya dengan baik tidak tertutup kemungkinan insyaAllah kita bisa mencapai apa yang menjadi target bisnis kita. Cerita Alex Tew pemuda 21 tahun dalam waktu 5 bulan mendapatkan hasil yang cukup banyak tentu saja tidak semudah membalikan telapak tangan namun semua berawal dari ide kecil dan dibangun dengan modal yang kecil pula. Kreatifitas dan kerja keras saya rasa menjadi salah satu dari sekian banyak hal yang dibutuhkan bagi kita yang ingin merintis sebuah bisnis usaha. Semoga tulisan ini bisa menjadi inspirasi. Salam sukses
Guillemots, Puffins, Murrelets, and Auks all belong to the same family-- Alcidae. They are like the Northern Hemisphere's answer to Penguins (black & white, live in cold waters, dive for fish)... only they can actually fly!
Black Guillemots are one of a several Alcid species that live near the waters of the North Atlantic and Arctic Oceans. They breed on the coasts, congregating in colonies that can number more than 20,000 birds. One interesting tidbit is that these birds look different depending on how far north they live. The higher the latitude, the more white they have on them. Some of these normally black birds can be entirely white in their winter feathers, with the exception of black wings.
These birds are wonderful swimmers, and can fly decently to boot. Walking? Well... it's a little funny looking. It's no wonder that these birds get all of their food from the water-- they are able to dive down several dozen feet, using their wings to paddle. A Black Guillemot can hold its breath for about two and a half minutes, and they feed on fish, crustaceans, and mollusks. After catching a fish, the Guillemot actually carries it back crosswise in its beak.
Black Guillemots are currently listed at Least Concern, but that may someday change. Because they feed only near the surface of the water they are susceptible to the pollutants that congregate there. Oils, pesticides, and Mercury have all been found in the birds and their eggs. IUCN Status : Least Concern Location :Atlantic Size : Body length around 14in (36cm)
Classification : Phylum : Chordata -- Class : Aves -- Order : Charadriiformes Family : Alcidae -- Genus : Cepphus -- Species : C. grylle
Happy Earth Day everybody! Because today we are supposed to focus on conservation, I wanted to talk about one of the rarest animals on the planet-- one that might actually be extinct already. Let the New Zealand Greater Short-tailed Bat be a cautionary tale, and let's also hope they aren't completely gone from the Earth.
There are only three extant Bat species in New Zealand, the the Greater Short-tailed Bat is the largest of the group (though they are still only about 9cm long). They, and their sister-species the Lesser Short-tailed Bat, are the only two members of their family. They may have split off from other Bat Families more than 40 million years ago. Once upon a time you could find these bats abundantly on the North and South Islands, but human arrival in New Zealand was the trigger for their decline.
The New Zealand Greater Short-tailed Bats are interesting creatures because they spend quite a bit of time on the ground. They can fly, of course, but are slow and never go very high. You can probably see where this is going, right? With humans came terrestrial mammalian predators like cats and rats. The ground-dwelling bats never had to deal with creatures like those, and they were hunted to elimination on the main islands.
The Bats carried on on a few surrounding islands... until the 1960s when Rats made it over there by accident as well. There hasn't been a confirmed sighting of these rare creatures since 1967, though there have been a number of unofficial reports. If they are still out there, the population would be very, very small. Rat eradication and surveys are needed to support the conservation of the species. IUCN Status : CriticallyEndangered Location :New Zealand Size : Body length around 9cm
Classification : Phylum : Chordata -- Class : Mammalia -- Order : Chiroptera Family : Mystacinidae -- Genus : Mystacina -- Species : M. robusta
The Spiny Turtle, also known as the Sunburst Turtle, is a land-dwelling Turtle named for the pointed spikes that extend outward from the rim of their carapace. These spines are much more pronounced in juveniles, and as adults they are most noticeable on the rear of the shell.
Spiny Turtles live in the hilly rainforests of Southeast Asia. They live relatively close to bodies of water, and feed mainly on plants and fruits. Interestingly, we know next to nothing about their wild breeding habits. In captivity it appears that breeding is triggered by the rainy season, and that the females will lay only two or three eggs per clutch. But we don't know the exact nuances of their reproductive process when left in a wild habitat.
Sadly, the Spiny Turtles are listed as endangered. They have been hunted extensively for their meat, and currently their populations are very small and are typically isolated from one another. Very little is being done to conserve the species. Unfortunately, they are also very difficult to breed in captivity. IUCN Status : Endangered Location :Southeast Asia Size : Body length around 10in (24cm)
Classification : Phylum : Chordata -- Class : Sauropsida -- Order : Testudines Family : Geoemydidae -- Genus : Heosemys -- Species : H. spinosa
The Kinder Goat is actually a very new breed that has only existed for a few decades. It was created in 1985 when two Nubian Goat does were left without a mate on their farm in Washington State. The farm owners allowed their Pygmy Goat Buck to do the breeding instead, and not long after the first Kinder Goats were born.
This breed is dual purpose-- they can be raised for their milk or their meat, and are ideal for very small farms. They produce large amounts of milk with a high (7%) butterfat percentage, and tend to be more muscular than the dairy-specific Nubian goats. Size-wise, they are right between their two ancestors. They can reach 150lbs, and stand about 2.5ft tall.
Kinder Goats come in many different colors, and have the luxury of being able to breed year-round. They are also known for their multiple births-- triplets and quadruplets are actually very common to the breed. Status : Status Location :United States Size : Shoulder height up to 28in (71cm), Weight up to 150lbs (68kg)
Classification : Phylum : Chordata -- Class : Mammalia -- Order : Artiodactyla Family : Bovidae -- Genus : Capra -- Species : C. aegagrus -- Subspecies : C. a. hircus
The word "Hwamei" derives from the Chinese "hua-mei," which translates to "Painted Eyebrow." Looking at this bird, you can tell that that is a very accurate name! These birds have reddish-brown feathers covering their bodies... except around their eyes. There, they have a white ring that circles that eye and then extends backwards as a line.
The Chinese Hwamei live in many different countries, not just China. They are also found in Laos and Vietnam, and have been introduced to Japan, Taiwan, and even far-away Hawaii. They live in open woodlands and scrublands.
You may stumble across one of these birds as they forage on the ground for fruits and insects. (Though keep in mind that they can be difficult to spot!) They tend to live in small groups or pairs.
At present, the Chinese Hwamei has a very large range and is common throughout it. They are listed as Least Concern for now, but it appears that the population is declining (albeit very slowly). IUCN Status : Least Concern Location :East Asia, Hawaii Size : Body length up to 10in (25cm)
Classification : Phylum : Chordata -- Class : Aves -- Order : Passeriformes Family : Timaliidae -- Genus : Garrulax -- Species : G. canorus
The Koa Bug is the largest species of true bug that is endemic to the Hawaiian Islands. They can be found on all of the main islands of the chain, living in Koa trees and `a`ali`i bushes.
Like all true bugs, Koa Bugs have no chewing mouth parts. Instead, they have a little tube-like mouth part that they use to get inside the seeds of their host plants. Once inside, they suck out the insides.
Kos Bugs are also members of the "Jeweled Bug" family, Scutelleridae. Because of this they sport an enlarged, sheild-shaped thorax. However, the Koa Bugs are different from many of their cousins because they do not have the ability to secrete a stinky, defensive chemical. They are sometimes called "Stinkless Stink Bugs".
Unfortunately, the Koa Bug populations are being hurt by some introduced species. Non-native Stink Bugs made their way to the islands and started to cause damage. To get rid of those invasive bugs, a Stinkbug-eating Fly was brought in... only it can't tell the difference between the native and non-native bugs. Though you can still find Koa Bugs on most of the larger islands, the population is declining. IUCN Status : Not Listed Location :Hawaii Size : Body length up to 15mm
Classification : Phylum : Arthropoda -- Class : Insecta -- Order : Hemiptera Family : Scutelleridae -- Genus : Coleotichus -- Species : C. blackburniae
Jika anda sedang mencari beberapa ide usaha mengenai bisnis kuliner, saya rasa untuk yang satu ini bisa menjadi inspirasi peluang usaha khususnya untuk strategi marketing bisnis dibidang kuliner. Paket Serbu (Serba Lima Ribu) saat ini sudah menjadi salah satu tips dan daya tarik bagi beberapa pengusaha kuliner khususnya warung makan yang ingin menggaet banyak pelanggan dari berbagai kalangan. Mau tahu lebih lanjut soal ini? Saya akan mengulas sedikit tentang peluang bisnis ini.
Banyak sudah usaha makanan khususnya warung makan yang ada disekitar kita namun hanya sedikit yang memiliki kreatifitas khususnya strategi marketing untuk menggaet pelanggan dan "memaksa" secara tidak langsung pelanggan tersebut untuk tetap dan selalu berkunjung ke warung mereka. Ada beberapa faktor yang menyebabkan pelanggan enggan untuk hadir kembali ke warung makan diantaranya yaitu faktor utama karena menu makanan yang kurang cocok bagi mereka mungkin kurang lezat atau gimana, dan juga tidak ada nilai lebih dalam arti sesuatu yang khas yang bisa ditawarkan warung tersebut.
Namun ketika beberapa hari yang lalu ketika saya bepergian ke salah satu daerah di Yogyakarta bersama teman kalo tidak salah daerah umbulharjo, disana saya melihat ada sekelompok remaja lumayan banyak sekitar 10-15 orang yang datang berbondong-bondong ke sebuag warung makan, padahal disamping warung tersebut juga ada beberapa warung lainnya, tapi kenapa warung itu yang mereka tuju. Usut punya usut ternyata diwarung tersebut ada menu khusus yaitu paket SERBU atau bisa disebut paket serba lima ribu. Tentu saja ini sebuah tagline yang menarik bagi siapa saja yang ingin makan di sebuah warung makan, dan juga ini memang sebuah ide yang cukup unik dan bagus bagi pengusaha kuliner yang ingin menjalankan peluang usaha jenis ini. Menarik memang, karena warung tersebut beda dengan warung lainnya. Dengan uang lima ribu rupiah anda bisa mendapatkan nasi sayur plus lauk lele dan juga es teh manis begh.. lumayan menarik buat kalangan mahasiswa dan juga maysarakat umum menurut saya.
Di tahun 2013 ini tentu saja kita butuh kreatifitas yang lebih dong dalam memanfaatkan setiap peluang bisnis yang ada disekitar kita. Tidak terkecuali ide bisnis usaha dibidang kuliner khususnya warung makan. Nah, dari cerita saya tersebut paket serba lima ribu menurut saya menjadi salah satu menu andalan bagi warung tersebut untuk menggaet konsumen dan pelanggan mereka untuk balik lagi tentunya, cukup kreatif.
Disini saya ingin sampaikan bahwa kreatifitas di bidang usaha apapun itu perlu. Karena dengan kreatifitas khususnya sesuatu yang berbeda dengan kompeitor maka konsumen cenderung lebih ingin mencoba dan ingin tahu lebih dalam mengenai bisnis kita tersebut. Jadi saya rasa tidak ada salahnya jika anda memakai strategi paket serbu atau paket apapun itu tentu saja yang membuat hal berbeda dan menarik minat konsumen untuk menikmati produk anda. Sesuatu yang lumrah jika kita memberikan servis yang baik kepada konsumen apalagi dengan paket yang istimewa.
Mungkin sedikit saja artikel kali ini, intinya setiap peluang usaha yang ingin kita jalankan sebaiknya kita memikirkan strategi marketing yang unik dan menarik serta tidak memberatkan pelanggan. Semoga bisa menjadi inspirasi. Terima Kasih
It's been absolutely pouring all day, and all this water is making me think of Ducks. So lets learn about one today, shall we?
The Bufflehead is a Duck that is found in the lake, ponds, and oceans in and around North America. They migrate seasonally, spending winters further south and their summers breeding in more inland areas of Canada and Alaska. Sometimes they end up in far away places during these migrations-- birds have been found in Japan and in Western Europe!
(female)
Buffleheads feed on a variety of different aquatic plants and animals-- it all depends on their location. Ducks that live near lakes and ponds consume more insects, while ocean-dwelling ducks consume mollusks and crustaceans.
Buffleheads are relatively unique among Ducks in that they remain monogamous for several years. They nest in trees, utilizing old cavities that were often created by Northern Flickers or Pileated Woodpeckers. Around 10 Ducklings are born each season, and when they are only a day old they leap down on to ground from their nest-- a jump that can be several feet!
As with many Ducks, Buffleheads exhibit sexual dimorphism. Males are white with black backs. They also have very large white patches that wrap around the back of the head, which is otherwise iridescent green and purple. Females are grey-brown all over, with a small white cheek spot. IUCN Status : Least Concern Location :North Africa Size : Body length up to 16in (40cm)
Classification : Phylum : Chordata -- Class : Aves -- Order : Anseriformes Family : Anatidae -- Genus : Bucephala -- Species : B. albeola
The Wood Mouse is an incredibly common rodent in Europe. They have a range that extends across the continent, including the British Isles. The can even be found in northern Africa. It should come as no surprise that they are amazingly adaptable, and can be found in most habitats.
The most remarkable thing about the Wood Mouse is its breeding season. They are actually "in season" for 3/4 of the entire year! From February until October these mice are constantly reproducing. A female can produce seven litters of up to nine offspring each during that time. Young Mice born early in the season might start breeding themselves before it is even over!
It is a good thing that these rodents breed so quickly-- they have very short lifespans, typically no more than 2 years. They also have more predators than I can count. To keep from being some foxes snack, the Mice have tail skin that can rub off if grabbed. They also store their food (mainly seeds) and sleep in underground tunnel systems, which give them some shelter during the daytime. IUCN Status : Least Concern Location :Europe, North Africa Size : Body length up to 10cm
Classification : Phylum : Chordata -- Class : Mammalia -- Order : Rodentia Family : Muridae -- Genus : Apodemus -- Species : A. sylvaticus
Contrary to the name, Goitered Gazelles do not all have thyroid gland conditions. However, the males of the species do have throats that enlarge during breeding season, and their necks can resemble Goiter. They use those throat sacs to create loud courtship bellows.
You'll find these Gazelles in the Middle East and in parts of Central Asia, and there are four recognized subspecies. They live in dry plains and deserts, and are most active at dusk and dawn (the rest in the shade during the hot daytime). Luckily, they are able to get most of their water from the plants that they eat, so they do not have to worry too much about finding additional water in their dry habitat.
Goitered Gazelles are very fast, and can run as swiftly as 36mph. They are also unusual among Gazelles in that the females do not normally have horns (they do in other species). However, like many of their relatives, these antelope live in small groups that migrate seasonally. IUCN Status : Vulnerable Location :Middle East and Central Asia Size : Shoulder height up to 32in (80cm)
Classification : Phylum : Chordata -- Class : Mammalia -- Order : Artiodactyla Family : Bovidae -- Genus : Gazella -- Species : G. subgutturosa
The Flatback Sea Turtle is the only member of its genus, Natator, which means "swimmer." Combine that with the species name, depressus, which is derived from "flat," and you get a pretty accurate description of the creature! They are close to a meter in length, with very flat, smooth, grey carapaces.
Flatback Sea Turtles live only in the waters between New Guinea and the northern coast of Australia, where they hunt for squid, mollusks, and other invertebrates. However, they exclusively breed in Australia, nesting on beaches on the continent and on coastal islands.
Speaking of nesting, the Flatback Sea Turtles are distinct among their kind because they lay larger eggs than their cousins, though they also lay a much lower number. For example, the Green Sea Turtle can lay up to 200 eggs at a time. The Flatback lays only 50.
These Turtles are listed as vulnerable by local governments, but the IUCn lists them as data Deficient because the species is so difficult to accurately survey. As with other Sea Turtles, the Flatbacks are affected by habitat loss, climate change, and pollution. IUCN Status : Data Deficient Location :Australia, New Guinea Size : Carapace length up to 35in (.9m)
Classification : Phylum : Chordata -- Class : Reptilia -- Order : Testudines Family : Cheloniidae -- Genus : Natator -- Species : N. depressus
The Purple-throated Carib is a Hummingbird species that can be found on numerous islands in the Caribbean Sea. They are sound in both tropical and subtro pical lowland forests where they can find their two favorite flowers.
This species in quite interesting because the males and females have different beak types, and they each have a specific flower to feed from using that beak. Both planets are from the Heliconia genus, with the males consuming the nectar of H. caribaea, and the females going after H. bihai.
They two sexes look the same when it comes to coloration-- shiny green wing feathers, dark bodies, and bright purple throats-- but the males are larger and have shorter beaks that are shorter by about 1/3.
Though they are island birds with a relatively small range, the Purple-throated Caribs are common and not facing any major conservation threat at this time. They are listed as being of Least Concern. IUCN Status : Least Concern Location :Caribbean Islands Size : Body length up to 41in (1m)
Classification : Phylum : Chordata -- Class : Aves -- Order : Apodiformes Family : Trochilidae -- Genus : Eulampis -- Species : E. jugularis
Kali ini saya akan mencoba menulis mengenai peluang bisnis makanan khususnya untuk anak-anak sekolah dasar yang sebagai konsumennya. Bermula dari siang tadi 12 april 2013 ketika jam anak-anak SD pulang sekolah khususnya kelas 1, penulis melihat banyak anak-anak berkerumun di salah satu pedagang yang ada diepan sekolah mereka. Penasaran dengan kondisi seperti itu akhirnya sayapun mendekat dan ternyata seorang pedagang kue sedang asik meracik dan memasak kue dagangan dia sambil dikerumuni anak-anak SD yang sedang ngantri disekitarnya.
Saya tanya kepada penjual tersebut dagangan apa itu? dan dia menjawab "ini seperti kue leker yang biasanya itu lho mas" jawab dia. Tapi dalam pikiran saya ini kue kok disajikan dengan kertas yang dibuat kerucut jadi terkesan unik seperti kipas namun agak ditekuk dan akhirnya mengerucut dan mudah dipegang oleh tangan anak-anak. Dibawah ini ada sedikit video mengenai usaha kue leker model kerucut yang penulis ambil melalui kamera handphone.

Dari kejadian ini sebenarnya bisa kita tangkap mengenai inspirasi ide bisnis yang ada. Menurut saya makanan kue leker adalah makanan yang biasa saja, namun jika dikemas dengan penyajian yang unik dan menarik seperti halnya pedagang yang satu ini maka akan lebih menjual dari sisi marketing khsusunya jika dipasarkan ke anak-anak sekolah dasar. Bentuk yang tidak biasanya membuat kue ini diminato anak-anak mungkin karena penasaran kali ya?.

Ini jelas merupakan sebuah peluang bisnis yang menarik. Anda bisa saja mencoba membuat hal serupa atau bisa saja lebih kreatif dalam penyajiannya tentu saja akan bisa menarik minat konsumen anak-anak SD tersebut.
Yang perlu diingat juga jika kita ingin fokus menjalani peluang usaha kuliner khususnya makanan bagi anak-anak, kualitas makanan dan bahan baku khususnya yang berkaitan langsung dengan kesehatan menjadi hal yang paling utama yang harus dijaga. Sebisa mungkin anda menggunakan bahan-bahan yang sehat, legal, serta tidak berbahaya. Intinya bikin senatural/sealami mungkin dan dengan cara ini akan menambah nilai jual lagi misalnya di gerobak atau tempat dagangan anda nantinya bisa dituliskan besar-besar "Makanan sehat tanpa bahan pengawet dan pemanis buatan" misalnya seperti itu. Karena mengingat anak-anak SD ini juga dijemput oleh orang tua mereka tentunya orang tua akan menyarankan anaknya untuk beli jajanan yang sehat dan bergizi bukan?.
Jelas ide bisnis kuliner untuk anak-anak masih sangat terbuka lebar. Contohnya saja jual kue leker bentuk runcing kerucut ini nyatanya juga pada ngantri pembelinya. Unik dan menarik serta rasanya yang enak membuat anak-anak suka dengan model jajanan seperti ini. Jika anda serius ingin memanfaatkan peluang usaha ini saya rasa hal-hal yang saya sampaikan diatas tadi seperti menjaga kualitas bahan baku dan juga kreatifitas penyajian atau pengemasan harus benar-benar diperhatikan.
Seian kue leker tersebut, kuliner yang lainnya saya rasa bisa menjadi opsi juga dan silahkan berkreasi dan ingat bahwa dalam perencanaan strategi bisnisnya adalah market pasar anak-anak SD jadi sebisa mungkin sesuatu yang digemari oleh anak-anak harus menjadi perhatian yang lebih jika anda mengelola ide bisnis ini. Mungkin sedikit saja yang bisa saya sampaikan dan semoga bisa menjadi salah satu inspirasi buat kita semua yang sedang mencari ide-ide peluang usaha di tahun 2013 ini. Terima Kasih.
The members of the Viverrid family may look like cats, but they are only distantly related to Felines (belonging to the same Carnivore Superfamily as the Cats, Hyenas, and Mongooses). The Viverrids are the most primitive of the bunch, and resemble some of the earliest Carnivoran creatures.
Of the 33 Viverrid species, 14 are Genets. And of the 14 Genets, the Common Genet is... well... the most common. They have a range that extends across Africa, and they can even be found in parts of Spain, Portugal, and France.
Common Genets have pale yellowish fur with dark rows of spots, a long dark crest of fur down the spine, and a ringed tail. Like Felines, they have retractable claws that help with climbing. Unlike Felines, they have five toes on their back feet!
Also cat-like are the sounds that they make. The Genets mew, purr, and growl, but also produce various clicks and hiccup-type calls as well. Because they are solitary, most of these interactions are between a mother and her offspring, but they will also make sounds when threatened.
Common Genets are nocturnal carnivores. They feed exclusively on other animals, especially Wood Mice. A final cat-like trait? They too kill their prey via a swift bite to the neck. IUCN Status : Least Concern Location :Europe, Africa Size : Body length up to 41in (1m)
Classification : Phylum : Chordata -- Class : Mammalia -- Order : Carnivora Family : Viverridae -- Genus : Genetta -- Species : G. genetta
Di artikel kali ini saya ingin mencoba menuangkan sedikit pengalaman yang saya alami beberapa hari yang lalu yang masih di bulan april 2013 ini. Semoga bisa menjadi inspirasi peluang bisnis buat kita semua yang akan atau sedang memanfaatkan peluang usaha di bidang properti khususnya jual beli rumah, perumahan., ruko, gudang, dan properti lainnya.
Kenapa saya ambil kata "Rumah Yogyakarta" di salah satu kata yang terselip di judul diatas? Sebelum itu akan saya sampaikan bahwa bisnis properti di Jogja saat ini sangat berkembang pesat. Jual beli perumahan, ruko, rumah tinggal, tanah dan properti lainnya sudah menjadi salah satu primadona bagi orang yang mampu memanfaatkan ide bisnis jual beli aset properti tersebut. Dengan kondisi kota yang semakin maju, dan dikukung adanya pusat-pusat kegiatan termasuk kampus dan juga perkantoran maka Rumah Yogyakarta menjadi salah satu ide usaha yang bisa dikatakan akan mendapatkan keuntungan yang luar biasa. Dan salah satunya ada klien saya dari Belanda yang dengan cerdik dan ulet mampu memanfaatkan momen dan peluang usaha tersebut, dan yang lebih luar biasa dia membuka bisnis jual beli rumah ini di kota Yogyakarta.
Saya akan cerita sedikit mengenai pertemuan saya dengan klien saya tersebut. Menindaklanjuti dari kontak mereka melalui salah satu situs social networking LinKedin mereka menginginkan diskusi dengan saya untuk menggunakan jasa saya sebagai salah satu SEO Specialist yang mempunyai beberapa klien international. Tanpa panjang lebar akhirnya kami menjadwalkan meeting dan ketika tiba saatnya kami mendiskusikan tentang banyak hal yang berhubungan dengan bisnis mereka yaitu jual rumah di Yogyakarta dan mereka ternyata membuat website yang di website tersebut mereka menyajikan berbagai macam properti untuk diperjual belikan di kawasan Jogja dan sekitarnya.
Penulis berdiskusi tentang pemanfaatan SEO di dalam bisnis properti
Yang menarik adalah mereka bisa memanfaatkan peluang bisnis ini. Dimana kota Yogyakarta merupakan salah satu kota tempat tujuan bagi para pelajar yang ingin menuntut ilmu disana dan juga bagi para pebisnis atau orang yang ingin berinvestasi rumah serta ingin menghabiskan masa pensiun dengan memiliki rumah di kota gudeg ini. Klien ini saya rasa cukup pintar dalam memanfaatkan ide bisnis tersebut.
Perlu anda ketahui jika anda mencari properti di Jogja maka sudah sangat banyak developer mulai dari yang kecil menengah hingga besar sekelas Ciputra sudah mulai berinvestasi dibidang jual beli perumahan. Ini merupakan kesempatan buat siapa saja yang bisa menjadi marketing entah itu digital marketing ataupun offline marketing untuk mengambil keuntungan dari bisnis yang sudah dijalankan oleh para developer, tersebut nah termasuk klien saya ini yang dengan cerdas dan jeli memutuskan untuk menjadi digital marketing di bisnis jual beli rumah khususnya di Jogja.
Dari sedikit gambaran diatas bisa saya ambil sedikit kesimpulan bawha jika kita melihat kota Yogyakarta yang sedang tumbuh sudah menjadi incaran bagi para pebisnis properti maka saya rasa kota-kota lainnyapun juga mempunyai kesempatan yang sama khususnya dalam bisnis jual beli perumahan, ruko, gudang dan properti lainnya. Jika orang dari negeri kincir angin saja bisa membuka bisnis di Indonesia, kenapa kita yang orang negeri sendiri belum memulai berbisnis model ini? semoga dengan cerita diatas bisa menjadi inspirasi peluang usaha bisnis properti bagi rekan-rekan yang ingin mencoba namun tidak memiliki modal yang cukup tinggi. Kita bisa menjadi agen marketing entah itu offline atau online/digital marketing.
Bisnis properti saya rasa dimana saja akan terus tumbuh dan berkembang mengingat kebutuhan akan tempat tinggal khususnya rumah memang menjadi salah satu kebutuhan pokok banyak orang. Jika kondisi ini bisa kita manfaatkan dengan cukup bagus maka ini adalah sebuah peluang bisnis yang cukup maknyus untuk dicoba. Untuk tahap awal anda tidak perlu menjadi developernya, anda bisa kerjasama dengan para developer untuk memasarkan produk mereka seperti klien saya dari Belanda yang sudah saya ceritakan diatas. Mau mencoba? Semoga tulisan ini bisa menjadi inspirasi bagi anda yang sedang mencari ide bisnis usaha khususnya dibidang properti.
Ohya anda bisa melihat website klien saya yang fokus dalam jual beli rumah di Yogyakarta, mengingat dan mempertimbangkan Rumah di jual di Yogyakarta merupakan salah satu bisnis yang sedang booming dan terus berkembang. Websitenya adalah YogyakartaRumah.com.

So you'd probably think that a creature called the Black Slug would always be black, right? Well... not exactly These European Gastropods actually have white and brown color morphs as well, and tend to be darker the farther north they live.
Black Slugs are nocturnal omnivores, coming out at night to feed on fungi, plants, and carrion. They live in wet areas, and actually produce a slime to keep their skin extra moist. Not only does that moisture help them to breathe better, but the slime itself tastes very bad and helps to deter predators. The mucus also helps them to move easier across the ground.
Like many slug species, the Black Slug is hermaphroditic-- they do not require a partner to reproduce. However, sexual reproduction is the preferred method. After mating, the slugs lay their eggs in dark, moist areas, like under rotting logs or in compost heaps.
Though Black Slugs originated in Europe, they have made their way over to Canada and the United States, and are now considered to be pests. They are very useful in their natural ecosystems-- they consume decaying matter and break up debris-- but in non-native areas they can upset the ecosystem. Gardeners in their native lands are also not fond of the slugs, and poison traps are used to control them. It is not advisable to eat Black Slugs, due to those toxins. IUCN Status : Not Listed Location :Europe Size : Body length up to 6in (15cm)
Classification : Phylum : Mollusca -- Class : Gastropoda Family : Arionidae -- Genus : Arion -- Species : A. ater
Moray Eels can grow very large. In fact, the largest of them, the Slender Moray, can reach up to 13ft long!
The Bicolor False Moray? Yeah... not so big. Males only reach about 8in, and females are even smaller. The smaller size is actually why False Morays are "False." They belong to a different family whose members resemble the "True" Morays, but get no where near the size.
Bicolor False Morays are predominantly a greyish-brown, with white on the underside (hence "bicolor.") They live in the coral reefs near the Galapagos Islands, an no where else!
Because of their small range, the IUCN lists the species are Near Threatened. They live in only ten specific reef areas, and though there is no bottom commercial fishing to disturb them, it is unsure what will happen to the population as a result of climate change or El Nino events. IUCN Status : Near Threatened Location :Galapagos Islands Size : Body length up to 8in (20cm)
Classification : Phylum : Chordata -- Class : Actinopterygii -- Order : Anguilliformes Family : Chlopsidae -- Genus : Chlopsis -- Species : C. bicollaris
The Abyssinian Roller is a striking blue bird found throughout the open habitats of sub-Saharan Africa. They are large in body size, growing up to 1ft in length with an additional 5-6in of tail feather.
You can identify these birds by their vibrant blue head and wings, and the reddish-brown feathers on their back. Males and females do look alike, and juveniles are similar as well, only more dull in color.
Abyssinian Rollers, like all Rollers, get their name from the rolling flying motion that they make, especially when trying to attract a mate. They build very rough nests in tree cavities or on building ledges (they have adapted well to human settlement) and lay up to 6 eggs at a time. These birds don't just nest high up, they hunt from perches as well. The Rollers keep and eye out for insects, rodents, and other small creatures. One spotted, they swoop down on their prey.
As mentioned, the Abyssinian Rollers have adapted to human encroachment. They have made good use of building, telephone poles, and other man made structures in order to nest and hunt. Their adaptability, combined with their large range, puts them at Least Concern on the conservation scale. IUCN Status : Least Concern Location :Africa Size : Body length up to 12in (30cm)
Classification : Phylum : Chordata -- Class : Aves -- Order : Coraciiformes Family : Coraciidae -- Genus : Coracias -- Species : C. abyssinicus
The Seahorses that we see in aquariums are often very small fish, usually no more than a few inches long. The Big-belly Seahorse is a very different creature entirely!
This species, which is found in the shallow waters off of Australia and New Zealand, can grow to be 14in long! They are one of the largest Seahorse species on the planet.
Big-belly Seahorses get their common name from the large size of their abdomen. It protrudes on both males and females, though the males have an extra pouch for incubating the young. Yes, male Seahorses care for the babies! The female will lay her eggs in his pouch, and he will swim around with them until they hatch. He can carry hundreds of eggs at a time!
Big-belly Seahorses spend most of their time near seaweed, coiling their tails around the plants to stay in place. They feed by sucking in tiny crustaceans through their long snouts. They swallow their prey whole.
To keep from becoming prey themselves, the Big-belly Seahorses attempt to camouflage themselves in with the seaweed. They also have eyes that move independently from one another, so they can watch for danger. IUCN Status : Data Deficient Location :Australia, New Zealand Size : Body length up to 14in (35cm)

Mungkin anda juga setuju jika ada pernyataan yang menyatakan bahwa ide bisnis jualan pakaian itu seakan tidak ada henti-hentinya, perputaran bisnisnya terus berlanjut dan akan terus berkembang kedepan nantinya. Saya rasa hal itu ada benarnya juga bahwa pakaian adalah salah satu kebutuhan pokok manusia yang memang sangat dibutuhkan dari waktu ke waktu, oleh karena itu jika kita bisa memanfaatkan peluang usaha ini saya rasa merupakan ide yang cukup bagus.
Di artikel kali ini saya coba mengulas sedikit mengenai prospek peluang bisnis berjualan pakaian muslin tapi khusus untuk anak. Kenapa hanya untuk anak? ya ini hanya opsi saja selain anak-anak merupakan salah satu market yang besar untuk bisnis pakaian dan khususnya pakaian muslim tersebut. Lalu bagaimana kita melakukannya? bagaimana jika kita tidak memiliki modal yang cukup banyak untuj belanja atau kulakan? bagaimana mengatasi hal tersebut? dan tentu saja strategi marketing yang bagus itu seperti apa? marilah coba kita ulas sedikit mengenai beberapa hal itu.
Bagaimana kita mensiasati dan menjalankan ide usaha ini? karena sayang jika kita sudah serius ingin memanfaatkan peluang bisnis ini namun buntu ditengah jalan atau malah buntu dari awal tidak tahu atau masih bingung bagaimana memulainya. Langkah pertama adalah apakah anda ingin memproduksi sendiri semua pakaian muslim anak tersebut atau hanya mengambil dari produsen? itu harus ditentukan diawal. Jika anda memiliki SDM dan juga modal untuk kulakan kain dan peralatan konveksi tentu saja memproduksi sendiri merupakan salah satu pilihan yang cukup bagus tapi tentu saja modal yang dikeluarkan juga perlu ada modal awal untuk melengkapi kebutuhan alat dan juga sarana prasarana lainnya itu tadi. Jika itu belum memungkinkan maka anda bisa menghubungi grosir pakaian muslik khusus untuk anak dan langsung kulakan secara grosir disana, ini tentu saja meminimalisir modal, namun anda hanya bisa mengandalkan stock yang ada di produsen tersebut. Unuk mengatasi jumlah stock yang dikhawatirkan terbatas anda harus mencari banyak produsen atau lebih dari satu produsen.
Perlu diketahui juga bahwa kadang kita terkendala modal entah itu modal untuk opsi satu yaitu memproduksi sendiri busana muslim tersebut atau opsi kedua berbelanja kulakan dalam jumlah banyak atau grosir. Kedua opsi tersebut harus ada modal terlebih dahulu, lalu bagaimana jika modal kita mepet? bagaimana mengatasinya? Kita harus mencari siasat dan cara dong jika memang keinginan kuat untuk menjalankan peluang usaha ini memang besar. Anda bisa mencari investor untuk diajak kerjasama, mereka yang modali anda yang mengoperasikannya, buat perjanjian dan bagi hasil yang fair. Ingat sebaiknya investor adalah kerjasama murni jangan berbentuk perjanjian hutang piutang. Anda harus bisa meyakinkan ke pihak investor bahwa ini adalah bisnis yang cukup bagus dan prospek, dan semua resiko harus diketahui sejak wal pembiacaraan, jangan sampai ada yang ditutupi diawal. Jiak semua jelas diawal maka jika terjadi sesuatu yang tidak diinginkan maka investor juga sudah mengetahui sejak awal dan akan lebih enak nantinya.
Selain itu untuk memulai usaha ini anda bisa juga kerjasama dengan perusahaan konveksi itu sendiri, begitu ada order anda baru mengambil produk yang dipesan, dan tentunya order yang sudah mentransfer uang ke anda, jadi anda ke produsen sudah siap membawa uang untuk kulakan. Sebenarnya semua itu simple, bagaimana kita meyakinkan pihak produsen atau investor dan tentunya dengan marketing yang bagus maka usaha ini insyaAllah akan berjalan dengan cukup baik nantinya.
Bagaimana memasarkan peluang usaha jenis ini? apakah door to door? atau lewat media lainnya? Diartikel lainnya di blog ini sebenarnya sudah banyak dibahas bagaimana kita memasarkan produk dengan efektif. Anda bisa menggabungkan sistem pemasaran online dan juga offline. Banyak cara yang bisa ditempuh, aktif di social media dan juga di organisasi lainnya merupakan salah satu bagian dari strategi marketing yang bisa dilakukan. Kreatifitas dan keuletan harus terus dipupuk jika kita ingin serius menjalankan ide bisnis jualan pakaian muslim khusus anak ini. Apakah anda tertarik? silahkan cari referensi produsen dan riset harga pasaran sehingga anda bisa kulakan dan menjual produk ini dengan harga yang cukup kompetitif. Terima Kasih
There are a couple of species that go by the common name "Yellow Sac Spider," but the specific one that we will be talking about today is Cheirachanthium punctorium (what a mouthful!)
These spiders, which are found in Central Europe and Asia, grow to about 15mm in length. They get their name from their yellow coloration, and from their egg-laying behavior.
Females build large (compared to their bodies) egg sacs in the grass, and they defend these 4cm long pouches very aggressively. And their aggression should be taken somewhat seriously! Their bites can actually pierce human skin, and cause reactions similar to a wasp sting in most humans (though some people will of course react in worse way). IUCN Status : Not Listed Location :Europe, Asia Size : Body length up to 15mm
Classification : Phylum : Arthropoda -- Class : Arachnida -- Order : Araneae Family : Miturgidae -- Genus : Cheiracanthium -- Species : C. punctorium
