<![CDATA[The development of digital technology and the increasing use of social media have changed marketing strategies and consumer behavior, especially among Generation Z. TikTok is used as a strategic marketing medium based on persuasive short videos. Kahf products apply a storytelling marketing content strategy and celebrity endorsements on TikTok to build emotional closeness and increase consumer trust, so that purchasing decisions are increasingly influenced by the power of marketing narratives and the credibility of public figures. This study aims to analyze the influence of storytelling marketing content and celebrity endorsements on TikTok on Generation Z's purchasing decisions for Kahf products in Medan. The influence of these two independent variables is analyzed partially and simultaneously on purchasing decisions as the dependent variable. The research design used is quantitative research with an associative approach. The population in this study is Generation Z in Medan who have purchased Kahf products, with a sample size of 96 respondents selected using non-probability sampling with purposive sampling technique.
