The government has implemented various programs to reduce poverty, but the number of poor people in rural areas tends to increase. The purpose of this study is to analyze the entrepreneur process in terms of: 1) motivation of sociology perspective, 2) allocation of resources, and 3) institutional role. The sampling method used was multistage cluster sampling. The sample size of poor household heads in rural areas was 133 people. Some important results of the study are as follows. First, the respondents’ perception on motivation in terms of sociological perspective has an average value that is in good enough category. Motivation results have the highest average value compared with social motivation and economic motivation. Second, the respondents’ perception on the entrepreneurial process in terms of allocation of resources is in good enough category. However, indicators of resource allocation and agglomeration strategies are in the bad category. Third, the average value of respondents' perception of entrepreneurial processes in terms of institutional roles is in fairly good category. The average value for the role of exploitation facilitation opportunities is in the less favorable category.
