The Covid-19 pandemic provides wisdom and opportunities for students to be creative entrepreneurs. This was captured and carried out by one of the 2019 UMM IP students named Khofifatus Sakdiyah. This woman from Argosuko Wangkal Lor, Poncokusumo, Malang Regency, has a business selling Tiens Jiang Zhi Tea herbs. This product helps destroy fat/cholesterol. Long-term use can lose weight and helps stabilize blood pressure, overcome rheumatism, gout, high blood pressure, heart and brain disease, strengthen the liver and immune system, and facial treatments. This business has been running for about four months and is marketed through the Lazada marketplace. Fifi manages to get a minimum turnover of 4 million every month, which shows this business has up-and-coming prospects.

As he is familiarly called, Fifi admits that he has a high business spirit and motivation. This is getting stronger during Covid-19 because people's interest in shopping online continues to increase and awareness of health and facial and body care for the community also continues to increase. In addition, according to Fifi, doing business is very important for investment in future work and can help the family's economy through the income earned. Equally important, this effort will later be integrated into the Independent Learning Campus (MBKM) activities, the Entrepreneurial Activity.
It is undeniable doing business in this competitive era is not easy. However, Fifi admits that many people do the same business. Therefore, it is necessary to be smart to read opportunities and make smart and effective business strategies. "Alhamdulillah, this business went smoothly thanks to perseverance, hard work, and enthusiasm to keep learning. The key lies in the ability to manage the business by ensuring the benefits of the products we have, continuous promotion, and most importantly, patience," concluded Fifi.
