Abstract

This research investigates the influence of social capital on the entrepreneurial success of Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) by examining the roles of bonding, bridging, and linking social capital. A mixed-methods approach was employed, including a quantitative survey of 300 MSME owners and qualitative interviews with 20 selected respondents. Descriptive statistics revealed high levels of bonding social capital, significant variability in bridging social capital, and diverse experiences with linking social capital among participants. Regression analyses confirmed the positive impact of bonding, bridging, and linking social capital on different aspects of entrepreneurial success, while structural equation modeling demonstrated their synergistic effects. Thematic analysis of interviews provided deeper insights into how entrepreneurs leverage social capital at various stages of business development. The findings highlight the importance of strategic management of social networks in enhancing MSMEs' ability to innovate, adapt, and achieve sustained growth.

Abstract

This study looks into how business capital, entrepreneurial orientation, digital marketing, and the financial performance of Micro, Small, and Medium-Sized Enterprises (MSMEs) in Indonesia interact. The study analyzes data from a diverse sample of 400 MSMEs using Structural Equation Modeling with Partial Least Squares (SEM-PLS) 3 and a quantitative research design. Descriptive statistics shed light on the essential factors and demographic profile, and the measurement model assessment verifies the constructs' validity and reliability. Significantly positive correlations between digital marketing, entrepreneurial orientation, business capital, and financial success are established by the structural model study. The mediating roles of business capital and entrepreneurial orientation are revealed through indirect impacts. R-square values and model fit indices attest to the suggested model's resilience. The results add to our understanding of the variables that influence MSME success in the Indonesian business environment and provide useful information for future research projects, practitioners, and policymakers.
