Keyword: Business Income. Business Training. Capital. E-Commerce INTRODUCTION MSMEs, or micro, small, and medium-sized businesses, play a significant part in the Indonesian The majority of small and medium-sized enterprises are microbusinesses. Because they may bridge the income gap between business actors, fight poverty, and employ workers, microbusinesses can be considered the foundation of the economy . When a crisis strikes, microbusinesses are able to preserve the resilience of the national economy while also having a positive impact on the local economy. A recession was experienced in Indonesia's economy as a result of the 1997Ae98 global financial crisis. At that time, many businesses experienced losses and had to lay off their employees. This causes the unemployment rate to increase Under such conditions, only the MSME sector, especially microbusinesses, can still survive. Microbusinesses can survive the storm of crisis because they produce goods and services with low demand elasticity and do not use capital from banks. This phenomenon explains that microbusinesses are productive businesses to develop because they can support micro and macroeconomic growth in Indonesia and influence other sectors that can develop . MSMEs have several potential strengths that are a mainstay that will form the basis of development in the future, namely: When providing employment opportunities, the role of small industries in absorbing labor should be taken into account, estimating or absorbing up to 50% of the available workforce. Sources of new entrepreneurship: the existence of small and medium businesses has been proven to support the growth and development of new entrepreneurship. Having a unique market segment and implementing simple and flexible management to adapt to market changes . Utilizing the surrounding natural resources, small industries mostly utilize waste or results from large industries or other industries. Has the potential to develop. The numerous development initiatives demonstrated the potential for small industries to grow and expand into related industries. Two aspects make up weaknesses, which frequently turn into barriers and issues for DOI: https://doi. org/10. 57152/malcom. MALCOM-03. : 247-252 microbusinesses: Internal considerations, which are typical issues for microbusinesses, include the human resource capacity limitations . The limitations on product marketing are brought on by microentrepreneurs' inability to access marketing services, particularly market networks and information. Customers frequently lack confidence in the caliber of microbusiness items. Due to the fact that the majority of microbusinesses use only modest quantities of their own capital, business capital limits exist. For the creators and managers of MSMEs, external variables can be a concern. For example, the solutions provided are not on target, and there is no monitoring or overlapping programs . Microbusinesses are the business scale that has the largest number when compared to other business There were 64. 6 million microbusiness units, or 98. 68%, in 2019. With this high number, microbusinesses have a contribution to make in terms of employment. In 2019, microbusinesses were able to 8 million, or 89. 04%, of the total workforce. This means microbusinesses play a big role in the Indonesian economy. The great potential possessed by microenterprises is able to drive economic activities and become a source of income for the majority of society. MSMEs, especially microbusinesses, play an important role in the Indonesian economy . One province that relies heavily on MSMEs to support its economy is West Java Province. 90% of West Java's economy comes from MSMEs. Meanwhile, when compared with Banten Province. MSMEs only have a contribution of 50% to Banten's economy. The significant contribution that MSMEs made to the creation of the economy through the MSME sector and creative industries is further evidence of their contribution to the economy. In 2019. MSMEs contributed 80% to GDP. Today's business competitiveness is increasingly developing due to the influence of increasingly advanced technology. Technological developments in the field of information and communication have changed the behavior of the business world. In the millennial era, society cannot be separated by the internet. The use of the internet has changed concepts and business models, especially in producing, promoting, and distributing products . The existence of the internet can help people receive the products they need more easily and quickly. Factors that influence MSME income, namely: Capital: Every business requires capital, which is used for business operations with the aim of obtaining maximum profits. Market conditions are related to market conditions, type of market, group of buyers in that market, place of trading, frequency of buyers, and tastes of buyers in that market. The ability of the trader, namely whether or not a trader is able to influence buyers to buy their merchandise and get the expected income. The condition of business organizations is that the bigger the business, the higher the frequency of sales, so the profits will be greater. Other factors, such as advertising, quality, branding, product packaging, and service, can affect seller income . In Indonesia, there will be 203 million internet users by 2021. Every year, there are more people in Indonesia using the internet. This is demonstrated by a rise of 27 million, or 11%, from 2020. 74% of Indonesians used the internet in that same year. West Java Province had 35 million internet users in 2020, the highest figure in all of Indonesia. With 27 million inhabitants. Central Java comes in second, while East Java, with 26 million, comes in third. This will be directly proportional to the rise in online-related economic activities given the high number of internet users in West Java. The large population of internet users may entice consumers and corporate players to do transactions online. Electronic commerce, or e-commerce, is the term used to describe businesses that use online media. Producers, sellers, buyers, couriers or intermediates, and Internet Service Providers (ISP) are all involved in the process of e-commerce . Business people are currently using e-commerce more and more frequently to make transactions for buying and selling simpler. Ecommerce is currently protected under Law Number 7 of 2014 regarding trade. In addition. Government Regulation Number 80 of 2019 supports Law Number 7 of 2014 and governs trade using electronic systems. Traders will employ electronic processes where they do transactions using electronic technologies. Thus, business actors can use e-commerce without doubt because there is already a legal umbrella. In 2021, around 14 million MSMEs will use digital platforms. When compared to the number of MSMEs as a whole, only around 23% of MSMEs use e-commerce to sell their products. The government targets that by 2024, as many as 30 million MSMEs will use digital platforms. Business actors can immediately transform into the digital realm to achieve this target . Business actors who use e-commerce are still focused on big cities. West Java is the province that has the largest number of business actors using e-commerce nationally. The growth in the value of e-commerce transactions in West Java is also the largest nationally. According to a BPS survey, the main challenge facing business actors who use e-commerce is the level of market demand for goods and services. The second obstacle experienced is capital problems. Capital is a problem that hinders business development. The lack of skilled workers is the third problem for e-commerce business actors. Business actors do not yet have skilled workers to control and develop their e-commerce . Many MSMEs, especially micro businesses, still have difficulty accessing financing. In general, microbusinesses use personal capital that comes from savings and do not have access to capital from banks. According to Bank Indonesia, 70% of MSMEs do not have bank credit, and only 1% have loans from fintech and other non-bank financial institutions. Many microbusiness actors have creative and innovative ideas for their businesses but cannot realize them due to limited capital. Constraints related to capital financing make it difficult for microbusinesses to obtain financial support and hinder microbusiness actors from expanding their businesses. The Ministry of Communication and Information noted The Role of E-Commerce Use. Capital. (Mustafa et al, 2. ISSN(P): 2797-2313 | ISSN(E): 2775-8575 that 11% of MSMEs that have entered the world of e-commerce face capital constraints. This is a problem that has not been resolved until now, so it can hinder microbusiness actors from developing their businesses . Social media, e-commerce, and websites are examples of digital technology that MSMEs frequently One strategy to facilitate the sales process, particularly for MSMEs, is to implement e-commerce. Ecommerce has advantages for business owners in terms of boosting productivity, cutting inventory costs, boosting sales, improving customer relations, breaking into new markets, and eventually generating profits. Ecommerce can help performance gains in two different ways: first, by expanding the client base for purchase. and second, by lowering costs . y saving on gasoline, storage, transportation, or personal expense. Training can be seen as a company that is run to enhance a person's performance on the job at a job that is relevant to the work for which they are responsible . Aspects of skills and abilities become a benchmark for employees when participating in training. Training is an integrated step towards improving actual work that is based on developing skills, knowledge, and abilities. Training is defined as steps that are arranged in a planned and systematic manner to develop or improve a person's skills, knowledge, and attitudes in accordance with the needs of the organization. The purpose of training can be used in the hope that someone will become competent and be able to do much higher-quality work so as to produce better output . Business actors also face difficulties with skilled workers. The lack of skilled workers who are able to operate technology can hinder the running of a business. Apart from that, skilled labor is also needed in a business to be able to provide new ideas and innovations in order to increase competitiveness. Therefore, business training is crucial for business owners and their staff if they want to maximize the usage of ecommerce and sales outcomes. E-commerce is frequently utilized in company as a tool for marketing strategies, particularly while doing sales operations. E-commerce business players face challenges due to a lack of skilled workers and business capital . The fact that these challenges exist may hinder sales efforts. Since sales activities will be the main source of income for business actors, they are the primary objective. When sales take place, there will be a flow of products out of business actors, and customers will pay money. Numerous earlier investigations provide support for this findings. The findings indicate that e-commerce significantly affects how much MSMEs in the semiconductor business in Bireuen Regency earn . According to additional study, business capital increases MSME revenue. Furthermore, prior studies indicate a favorable and considerable impact on MSME revenue from the business training programs offered by the Kupang City MATERIALS AND METHOD This research started with problem identification, then researcher conducted a literature reviw to find and explore relevant and update journal to support the research.

The non-probability sampling technique utilized in this study is the purposive sampling method. Non-probability sampling is a strategy that does not provide every component or person in the population an equal chance to be chosen as a Due of the size of the population and the researcher's time constraints, this technique is employed.

The majority of the culinary enterprises, or 8, have an average monthly turnover of less than IDR 4,000,000. Two home improvement companies have a combined average monthly revenue of less than IDR 4,000,000, and the other two have a monthly revenue range between IDR 4,000,000 and IDR 8,000,000. Additionally, the average monthly revenue of business actors in the service sector is between IDR 16,000,000 and IDR 25,000,000, with a maximum of 2 businesses. In contrast, the average monthly turnover for enterprises in the beauty industry ranges from less than IDR 4,000,000 to IDR 16,000,000. 16 enterprises, or the majority, are in the fashion and accessory industry and have capital between IDR 2,000,000 and IDR 4,000,000.

Apart from that, the e-commerce platform that is least used is Bukalapak, with only 5 business actors. The other e-commerce sites in question are Website. Go Food. Grab Food. Shopee Food, and Zalora. The majority of microbusiness actors use e-commerce for the reasons that it makes it easier to reach potential consumers and to make buying and selling transactions easier.

However, the number is not as large as digital marketing training. The e-commerce usage variable yields a t-count and t-table of 2. 6 and 1. 7, respectively. This demonstrates that the probability is 0. 010 < 0. 05 and the t-count value is 2. 6 > t-table 1. The variable usage of e-commerce has a positive and considerable impact on microbusiness income, as may be inferred from the conclusion that H0 is rejected and Ha is accepted.

The R2 coefficient is equal to 0. 5 and is changed to be equal to 0. Because multiple regression is being employed in this study, the modified R2 value is being used. Therefore, it can be inferred that the utilization of e-commerce (X. , money (X. , and business training (X. affect 52% of microbusiness income (Y). While other factors that were not looked at in this study had an impact on the remaining 48%.

This is evident from the t-test findings on the e-commerce usage variable, where the probability value of 0. 010 is lower than the alpha value of 0. 05 and the t-count of 2. 64 is higher than the t-table. Because of the shifting of sales from offline to online, e-commerce can help businesses generate more revenue. Online sales can facilitate product marketing and broaden consumer reach.

The capital variable's statistical t-test findings show that the t-count is 4. 4, which is higher than the t-table, and the probability value of 0. which is lower than the alpha value of 0. The amount of capital employed will determine how much money the business makes. The findings of this study are consistent with earlier studies that discovered business capital had a positive and significant impact on MSMEs' income. In addition, additional studies have discovered a positive relationship between capital and MSMEs' income in Bantul Regency.

Business actors are expected to participate in business training in order to advance both the caliber of their human resources and their entrepreneurial abilities. The government is supposed to regularly deliver business training and to keep an eye on participants. The type of training that might be offered includes courses on business digitization, company marketing, financial matters, etc. It is intended that this research would serve as a resource for authors of future studies to write more effective studies. Future researchers can broaden the study to include micro, small, and medium-sized enterprises in addition to REFERENCES
