INTRODUCTION
Building a business is similar to a house-building project. Sometimes simple, sometimes complicated. If someone wants to open a hotel business without planning and immediately building the business, the risk is enormous. As a business person, he must know, who are the targeted guests? Architectural design that can attract the targeted market segment, the steps are taken in finding the right people to manage the hotel, the actions that should be taken if the capital is not sufficient, considering if the profits are small, the actions that should be taken if they lose the competition, mastering the technique persuading others to want to invest in the business being built, as well as measures to increase the likelihood of earning large profits (Lessing & Brege, 2015).
the key to success in starting a business is the ability to express creative and innovative bright ideas. Not only that, the idea must have a high economic value as outlined in a mature and realistic business plan.
In early 2020, an outbreak of a disease caused by the coronavirus or Covid-19 emerged. This greatly affected the economic sector, including micro, small and medium enterprises (MSMEs). Since then, the government has imposed a policy of staying at home known as PSBB (Large-Scale Social Restrictions) to break the chain of virus transmission, but many businesses are increasingly sluggish and have even closed their outlets and temporarily laid off their employees. As a business owner, you are forced to think of new ideas to keep your business going or maybe start a new business (Shafi, Liu, & Ren, 2020).
The existence of the Covid-19 pandemic that has hit not only Indonesia but also the world inevitably forces the world's people to live a "new" lifestyle that is different from the previous lifestyle known as the new normal. This makes business people have to adapt to the new normal. Including those who are pioneering or want to start their own business. The type of business chosen must be adapted to the new normal lifestyle. However, in this new normal era, this does not mean that the opportunity for doing business is closed, on the contrary, there are types of businesses that have the potential to increase the coffers of profitable income for the business actor (Zwanka & Buff, 2021).
There are four types of businesses based on who the buyers are and what they offer. In terms of who the buyer is, there are two kinds of businesses, namely a) businesses whose final buyers are individuals or groups of individuals who buy something for their own use. Such businesses are referred to as business-to-consumer ( B2C /"bi-to-si." b) businesses whose final buyers are companies that buy something to be part of their business activity or part of their final product/service. Such business is referred to as business to business (Macaulay, 1963).
However, to determine what type of business to run, especially in this new normal period, an "idea or idea" is needed which is certainly not just an idea, but an idea that has commercial value and the idea is written in a business plan or business plan. Many people have brilliant ideas, great ideas, and have high commercial value but that idea is still just an idea even just a passing dream because the great idea was never written down or communicated to other parties or implemented.
This paper tries to explore how to plan a business, in the hope that it can be used as knowledge or to prepare the initial steps on how to explore, grow or capture business ideas or ideas and at the same time pour them into a business/business plan to find new business ideas that are suitable to run in this new normal. The reality on the ground shows that many great business ideas and original ideas are born from young people. Of course, if this opportunity or ability is packaged properly and can be designed in such a way that it can be packaged as a viable business plan and can be implemented into a real business, of course, it will provide many benefits for young people themselves and at the same time contribute to society and society. environment.

Based on the formulation of the problem, the purpose of this research is to find a new business idea that is suitable to run in this new normal period, especially in Pematangsiantar City.

Business Planning to Find New Business Idea
With uncertain business conditions like today, in the new normal period, a mature business plan is needed to get the expected return.
In simple terms, planning can be said as a "planning activity" and a plan can be formulated as "a set of goals/expected results plus actions that must be taken to achieve them". (Bafadhal, 2018) Based on the understanding of business planning according to Hisrich and Peters (1995), Safrida and Yusrita (2019) mean that a business plan is a written document prepared by an entrepreneur that describes all the relevant elements, both internal and external, regarding the company to start during a business. It contains an integrated plan regarding marketing, capital, manufacturing, and human resources (Safrida, n.d.).
Business/business plans are plans about what to do in a business going forward, including resource allocation, attention to key factors, and processing existing problems and opportunities (Supriyanto, 2009).
Judging from some of the opinions above, the definition of business planning can vary, but in general, it can be underlined that there are five main characteristics in business planning, namely 1) the existence of decision making from existing alternatives; 2) future orientation; 3) allocation of resources; 4) the existence of goals to be achieved; 5) there is a detailed process description in the form of activities, programs, activities, policies or procedures. So it can be concluded that business planning is a form of thought activity by business people for personal and collective decision making from various alternatives to achieve predetermined future goals through a methodical, systematic, and relevant process.
A business plan is a very specific plan. Its preparation should take into account the needs and wants of each business. Sometimes many people think that business planning is only for a new business or a proposal to seek a loan from a bank or how to bring in new investors in the business. Not as simple as the above, business planning is also important for an ongoing business. Business requires planning for optimistic growth and developments with a scale of priorities. Business/Business Planning itself is a result of thought, where the content of the plan must be able to support the achievement of company/business goals.

However, only about 13% or only about 8.3 million of the 64.2 million SMEs nationally. utilize digital technology, especially e-commerce (electronic commerce) platforms (Nurhidayati, Sugiyah, Syahyuni, & Wianti, 2021).
