So, what are the things you have to do is, first of all, you have to form a group, 8 to 10 members, and the group leader needs to submit the members' names to the particular lecturer because we need a record of the group members. So, only 8 to 10 members within the same group. This means, if let's say, you are a Group A student, so only from Group A. You don't choose from other groups. Okay. Within the same group. And the rest is, uh, you have to follow all of this. I think there's nothing you can follow, and make sure your assignment follows this thing: cover page, and the first page, you have to insert your rubric. Rubric here. This is the rubric. You have to include this rubric. Okay. First page, I mean, the first cover page. The follow page. Okay. Second page is, uh, rubric. Then only checklist. Checklist is this one. This is the checklist.

Okay. So, that's it about business plan. So, this topic will be covered in chapter, uh, chapter five. Then you will understand better about this one. Okay.

Okay. What about chap, assignment two? Assignment two is related to their assignment one. So, whatever business plan you have prepared, you have to do in online business. Okay. There are two ways of doing this business. Okay. First is, you prepare the business plan. You can take that product and you can sell it online. That is your online business. This is a real business. This is a real business. You have to sell online. If, let's say, your business plan, you do something, but you don't want to sell that product. You want to sell other product compared to your first assignment. Maybe first assignment, you want to sell, uh, t-shirt. But when it comes to the second assignment, which is online business, uh, you don't want to sell t-shirt, you want to sell a pencil box. Go ahead. No problem. You can do a different business for both assignments. But the second assignment, which is online business, you have to do the real business. You have to come up with the online business, which is, this assignment is more to the visual assignment. You don't need to write a lot, you know. It's just a picture, okay. It's just a, uh, images, okay. So, 30 marks. So, this one is the, the objective of the assignment is the overarching goal of this assignment is to provide students with a rough grasp of the vital role played by online business. Now, everything is online business. That's why, you know, I want you to do the online business. Simple online business, not the extraordinary. Okay.

By the conclusion of this assignment, our students will be exposed to the knowledge and skills necessary to effectively establish and manage online enterprises through diverse channels, with a particular emphasis on leveraging social media. So, my focus is, you have to run a social media-based online business. You can use TikTok, you can use Facebook, you can use Instagram, you can use Carousel, you, whatever social media you can use. Okay. WhatsApp is not a purely social media. WhatsApp is more to the messenger. Messenger, you can use WhatsApp Business, but you have to use social media also. So, by doing this assignment, okay, you are able to apply digital marketing tools. Okay. And also, you can develop the online business, and also you have to record the sales in the MDC. Okay. Later, I will explain. Okay.

There are two tasks in this assignment. First task is, you have to select one product. The assignment mandate, mandate one sheet, right? Compulsory students to undertake the practical execution of their business idea, transforming them into fully functional online businesses. It's a real business. In this endeavor, students must focus on marketing and selling the selected product or item through social media platforms. In order to furnish the students with the essential guidance and establish a well-designed framework to aid them in successfully executing this task, the following set of guidelines has been thoughtfully provided. So, I have a guideline, actually. You have to follow all of that. Okay.

First of all, students are required to sell any product through social media. So, you can choose any social media: Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, or any relevant. Okay. Let's say, uh, you are from Indonesia. Maybe you want to use the Indonesian-based social media. Go ahead. No problem. Okay. And in the Facebook, if let's say, you use Facebook, you must come up with a Facebook business page, Facebook Marketplace, and so on. If you are using TikTok, you must have a TikTok business page. If you're using Insta, Insta, uh, you have to have an Insta account, business account. I want to see that. Okay. So, follow all of this instruction. Okay. And WhatsApp Business is another way of engaging with the customer. So, WhatsApp is just an additional tool to run your business. You cannot run only using WhatsApp Business. You must have one social media account, and WhatsApp is to communicate. Okay. And students need to promote and generate product sales. You must generate sales through online. You have to sell products. Okay. Okay.

Uh, second is, second task is for your assignment, you have to develop your simple website to inform about your product. Okay. Students are tasked, uh, second task. If you don't do it, you will lose marks. Website, very simple website. No worries. Your lecturers will explain to you how to develop a website for your assignment. Okay. And for the website, maybe you can use Canva, Google Sites, Wix, Vibly, and so on, to develop your website. So, basically, for the second assignment, only two tasks. The last task is MDC. I will explain to you. Okay.

Another task is, after you develop your business and you start to sell your product, you have to go and register in the MDC portal, so-called LMS e-commerce. Okay. So, what you have to do is, okay, this one you can read. Okay. For information, uh, I have uploaded the guideline for you. This is the guideline. Use the guideline for the students. It has been uploaded in your UA online learning. Please refer to this. Okay.

So, once you register like this. Okay. So, you go and register. Use your IC like this. So, your IC identification number. If you happen to be an international student, you can use the passport number. Okay. If you cannot bypass by using the passport number, uh, maybe, uh, you can email to the, MD, uh, support team. Okay. No worries. I will bring the MD to explain about this. Maybe third week or fourth week, I will bring them. Okay. Through online. Okay.

So, when you log in, okay, I'm using my one of my student accounts, okay, for the demo version, my old student, okay. When you go to e-commerce, there are two things. Okay. First is "Track Your Business." You go here. What you do? You click your profile. Okay. And you create your business profile. Edit and you update everything and submit. Okay. Uh, this one, you see, business profile, it has been updated. So, you can update. And second is "Personal Profile." You update all of that. Okay. Then, what do you do after you do this? Okay.

So, what you have to do in this quarter, I want every student in the class to create an account. It's not one assignment, one account. If let's say, you have 10 members, you have to create 10 accounts according to your IC. And when you do sales, you have to divide the sales according to your agreement and update here your sales. For example, report your sales here. Okay. Report your sales. For example, this is old sales. You have to report. So, your offline sale, you can sell offline also. No problem. Online. But whatever it is, you have to promote your product online. Maybe your friend wants to buy offline. Maybe nearby to you, they look at your post in Facebook, they want to buy face-to-face. No problem. That is offline sale. If online sales, online, uh, which how you sell it? Uh, social media. Okay. When you sell it, 310, and amount, 20 ringgit, and description, what you sell. And this is expenses. Uh, for this product, what is the expenses? Uh, maybe you put, uh, goods, you buy the product, maybe, uh, 15 ringgit. Okay. Uh, stock. Okay. And amount is 15 ringgit. Okay. Submit and submit two times. Submit there. Submit here. Submit here. It means you are selling 20 ringgit. Your raw product value is 15 ringgit. So, you get the five ringgit sales, like this. I submit and I submit. Ah, you see, it will indicate. So, I want, if let's say, your group sells 100 ringgit sales. So, if let's say, you are a 10 student, you have to divide according to your agreement. Okay. So, uh, now my sales for the, uh, October is 20 ringgit. Monthly performance is 20, and yearly sales, okay, 20 ringgit because, uh, this is an old student. Okay. So, I can get the record from you. It is very, very important. Uh, this is the usage of the MDC. Don't worry, I will bring the MDC, uh, PIC, person in charge, to explain about this one. Okay.

Apart from this, what you can do is, okay, in E USA portal, we have, okay, we have, okay, we have "My Learning." This "My Learning" is actually, is a learning portal.
