This study seeks to investigate the impact of social media marketing and the integration of financial technology (FinTech) on company performance, with competitive advantage serving as a mediating variable within the small and medium-sized companies (SMEs) of the Lombok pearl sector. The study methodology employs a quantitative approach utilizing Structural Equation Modeling-Partial Least Squares (SEM-PLS) analysis. The research sample comprises 120 players in the Lombok pearl industry SMEs utilizing social media marketing and finance technology, selected via the census technique through the SME association.
