Indonesia is the big country with large, both in this culture, tribe, race, religion, food, and also handicrafts. But, nowadays, not many people in Indonesia who wants to appreciate what handicrafts or even these products are handmade made in the country which actually had a high quality and its emotional appeal rather than import quality. In addition, to buy the product handicrafts, someone would you bother usually go to the place where the handicrafts are made, and that it will take some time and large expense too. This is a problem that Kreasik want to overcome. Startup that previously engaged in e-commerce fashion with the name Shoperative saw that there hasn't been a niche marketplace which is especially dedicated to the Indonesia distinctive handicrafts.

The transaction process Kreasik itself is quite simple. You can directly to register with Facebook, Twitter account, or Google Plus. But after that, you must complete data to be able to transaction. For purchasing the products, you just order products, and there will be waiting for notification bills payment in the form e-mail. After that you only have to pay by bank transfer to the account Kreasik, and then wait if your reservation.

To become a seller or merchant, the user must to fill in data bank account number to accept the results sales transaction. Kreasik that facilitate transaction as an account with them or escrow will immediately send money to the seller after work received by buyer. To start selling its own products, the owner enough to upload their products in Kreasik. But, in order to keep the quality products sold, the seller must ensure that the original and would not violate all rights reserved, and to have a clear picture, But If not, the team Kreasik will refuse to display the product.

Kreasik get the commission four percent from each sale, But, in addition, Kreasik does not have other sources of revenue and does not yet have investors so that they have to pay for their education itself on startup.

Does our handicraft is much appreciated in the global market?

Since it’s launching in March last year, startup has more than 1,000 products from about 200 sellers, Kreasik currently has a total 1,000 member. But, the number of transaction they now is still has not satisfied. Rhendie Adelanovandy from Kreasik argues that this may due to "interest market still prefers manufactured products abroad".

Ironically, the market that is more promising for products made by Indonesian typical instead are outside Indonesia, whether it's community strangers, or Indonesian people who live outside the country. And to prove it, according to the story Rhendie, Indonesian university in Australia's sometimes buying various special handicrafts and later brought to Australia and sold again.

See, it is not surprising if the date 16 December and Kreasik opens the program Kreasik Goes to Australia. Through this program, Kreasik invites the Australian for promoting and on selling it handicraft products Indonesia there. Vendors who are interested in participating only register their products in accordance with the instruction that has been given, then Kreasik will (again) select whether the products that are registered appropriate for sale in Australia.

Registration process slow movement because even though there are several unique goods that entered, there are many items which are not "typical Indonesia" and "KW" or fake, so Kreasik have rejected it.

Cuisine Indonesia!

The plan Kreasik not only limited to craft products know that the Indonesian. That are out of "miss" with Indonesian food, they also sell Indonesian food there. It was different with craft products hands, Kreasik could not be exporting food to other countries. So they are working together with Indonesian Student Association (PPIA) at the University Of New South Wales (UNSW) - that for this time is often sold special handicrafts Indonesia - to participate to sell Indonesian food there.

Through this program, in addition of course can increase the number transaction, Kreasik hoped that the society Indonesia can be more "considered" and appreciate the products typically made in Indonesia , and also improves interest foreign products typically made in Indonesia.

In Indonesia, rival Kreasik who is also engaged in this field is Craftline. In addition, the site shop online Tokobagus and other such as Berniaga also sometimes selling products made with hands and unique Indonesia at the site of them.
