Business generally refers to organizations that seek profits by providing goods or services in exchange for payment. However, businesses don't need to turn a profit to be considered a business. The pursuit of profit, in and of itself, makes an organization a business.

The term "business" also refers to the organized efforts and activities of individuals to produce and sell goods and services for profit. Businesses range in scale from a sole proprietorship to an international corporation. Several lines of theory are engaged with understanding business administration including organizational behavior, organization theory, and strategic management.
