CHAPTER I
INTRODUCTION
1.1 Background to the Topic
As a subject in 7th semester in English Department of Indonesia University of Computer, job training should be accomplished by the students by working on the company or creating the entrepreneurship business. Then, the writer decides to take the entrepreneurship business and makes a company which runs on English poster printing as the object. While doing this job training, the writer gets many experiences working in the Si Dupan Poster company. We make some variations about English Poster lessons. It is because poster is one of an alternative media which even can be used as the source for people to get more or new knowledge and very easy to put it anywhere. It’s stated by Gulo in his book “Pendidikan
Religiositas”:
Sumber belajar adalah segala sesuatu yang dapat menghasilkan pengalaman
belajar ….., yang berupa pengalaman atau peristiwa, atau benda alam dan
buatan. Media belajar adalah segala sesuatu yang dapat membantu proses pembelajaran tersebut. (Gulo, 2009: 64)

interesting; family trees poster tell us the name of part of our family (father, mother, uncle, etc.); and human body parts poster tell us about the name of parts of our body
Si Dupan Poster makes this product (poster) to be more interesting. As Forlee’s statement in Australian Residential Property Development, he said that:
The benefits of poster advertising are that it is full color and you have control over coverage and choice of location. Posters are generally good medium for awareness campaigns and you have a captive market when they are used on bus shelters, for example. (Forlee, 2005: 81)
Therefore, in order to make customer be more interest in using it, Si Dupan Poster designs the lessons in a good way and prints into colorful poster. These methods are also based on the user’s request.
In running a company, it must be found advantages and disadvantages. The advantages and disadvantages in selling English Lesson poster will be analyzed by using SWOT (Strength, Weakness, Opportunity, & Threat) analysis method. Based on the explanation, the writer decides to raise the topic “The Selling English Lesson Poster for Student” as the title for this job training report.

SWOT adalah singkatan dari lingkungan internal Strengths dan Weakness serta lingkungan ekstrenal Opportunities dan Threats yang dihadapi dunia bisnis. Analisis Swot membandingkan antara faktor eksternal Peluang (Opportunity), dan Ancaman (Threat) dengan faktor internal Kekuatan (Strengths) dan Kelemahan (Weakness). (Rangkuti, 1997: 19)

THE BUSINESS OF SI DUPAN POSTER

Bandung. It located at Jl. Tubagus Ismail Bawah no. 40, Bandung, West Java. The company produces the educational poster about English lesson for the beginner.
This company is established by six students of English Department of UNIKOM. The reason we run this poster business is based on the fact that there are many students still need a help in learning English. Students today usually use a common book as one of the tool for learning and it makes them feel lazy to learn. So, the company provides an interesting and simple poster with put some specific English lessons into it as an alternative media in learning English easily.

CHAPTER III
THE DESCRIPTION OF THE TOPIC
In the world of study today, people, especially students are often getting obstacles in study. The most common reason is the laziness in reading a book. It can be said that they feel lazy because one of the media they use is a common book which is only filled by text from beginning until the end. It will be very boring if they have to read that common book to find the knowledge they need. Not only will take much time, the efficiencies of that method also can’t make the students easily understand about the lesson which they read instantly, perhaps. So, the writer and friends decide to make the English Lesson posters as the alternative media for learning English in an attractive way.
There are several kinds of posters promoted by the writer: human body part, tenses, family tree, and question tag. Therefore, with those posters, the students will memorize the lesson in easier way. It is because of the simple form of the poster that can be placed anywhere so the users can often find the poster.
This English Lesson poster business is not too different with other business done by other businessmen. In the other words, not only has advantages, this business also has disadvantages. The advantages and disadvantages will be analyzed using the method called as SWOT (Strength, Weakness, Opportunity & Threat). Rangkuti said in his book entitled “Analisis SWOT: Teknik Membedah
10
SWOT adalah singkatan dari lingkungan internal Strengths dan Weakness serta lingkungan ekstrenal Opportunities dan Threats yang dihadapi dunia bisnis. Analisis Swot membandingkan antara faktor eksternal Peluang (Opportunity), dan Ancaman (Threat) dengan faktor internal Kekuatan (Strengths) dan Kelemahan (Weakness). (Rangkuti, 1997: 19)
Strength is the power owned by the product itself which has a value for the company itself or even for the consumers. In this English Lesson poster business, the Strength of the poster is from the appearances and the usage. The color and design for creating poster can also be determined according to consumer’s taste whose order personally. So, the final form
of the poster can also be able to give the strength for this company. It can be seen on this one of consumer’s statement about the Tense Poster of Si
Dupan Poster Company. The datum below is taken from the questioner made by the writer:
11
The datum above is obtained from a student who bought the poster with Tense as the lesson. The students today are also often getting problems when they use the tenses in English conversation. However, now the user or students can learn the tenses easier. It can be seen from the datum from a consumer below:
The datum also show the Strength of the poster where the user said that the poster is interesting and really helps her to study. Thereby, it’s clear that the Strength of the poster is on the interesting appearance and the simple lessons on it and also very useful for the students to learn.
2. Weakness
The Weakness is a commonly thing which usually appears in a business. Sometimes, the weakness also can ruin a company if we don’t know how to handle it. The weaknesses in this business are about the cost and distribution. Therefore, we need to find the way to get back the capital and avoid of losing the profit (bankrupt).
According to data which is found in “Laporan Perkembangan Usaha
SI DUPAN Poster” of company, the fund used in this business is Rp.
100.000/each person. So, we get Rp. 600.000 as a total of the capital. With the capital, we must find the best print shop that can offer the cheapest
12
cost, either the cost of the papers or the cost of printing because the company also needs money to run other works as mentioned below:
With the operating expenses, the company must decide an appropriate cost for each poster. It must be done to get back the capital of business that used and to get the profit also. Thereby, we have a deal that each poster Breaking the agreement to have a meeting done by the consumer is one of examples found during the distribution process. To handle that problem,
Beban Usaha:
Biaya Transportasi Rp. 10.000
Pembelian contoh poster Rp. 2.500
Percetakan contoh poster Rp. 7.500
Print dan fotocopy dokumen Rp. 10.000
13
sometimes we need to make an agreement again so we can hand over the posters to them.
3. Opportunity
This English Lesson poster business also has a well enough opportunities in business world. Today, English is one of important subject of students in the school. English is also already being the one of international language often used by all people in daily conversation.
The datum below is the respond of one of student who bought a Question tag poster taken by interview with the writer:
From the datum above, it seems that the Question tag poster can help the student, especially in having conversation. It’s because the question tag itself not only can be used to make an emphasis in a sentence while it also can make the sentence / conversation become more interesting.
From the selling of the English Lesson poster, the company also earns a good enough profit. It’s showed in the “Laporan Perkembangan Usaha SI DUPAN Poster” of company that we are not only getting back the
14
Therefore, the writer believes that this English Lesson poster business has a quite convincingly successful opportunity, especially, if this poster is distributed to the students who are still beginner in learning English like in elementary school. Thereby, those beginners can follow the English development without having to wait the next class until they can get the English lesson as their subject.
