Abstract

This study aims to analyze the influence of mobile marketing on consumer purchase intent in emerging markets through a meta-analysis approach. As mobile technology penetrates and the use of the internet on mobile devices, mobile-based marketing strategies are becoming increasingly important, especially in developing countries. The study synthesizes 10 empirical research results published between 2022 and 2025 that meet inclusion criteria, such as topic relevance, completeness of statistical data, and focus on emerging market contexts. The analysis was conducted using a random effects model, which showed that mobile marketing had a significant positive influence on consumer purchase intent (Hedges' g = 1.029; p 0.001), with a moderate effect size. The moderator's analysis showed that factors such as ad personalization, interactivity, and digital literacy levels were variables that strengthened the relationship. The results of this study provide evidence that contextually designed mobile marketing strategies can increase marketing effectiveness in emerging markets, as well as be an important contribution to the digital marketing literature in the digital economy era.

Abstract

This study aims to examine the role of employee engagement in increasing employee retention of Millennials and Gen Z in modern organizations. The research background is based on the high challenges in retaining a young workforce that is dynamic and easily switchable. The research method uses a quantitative approach with a survey of 30 respondents of Millennial and Gen Z employees from various industry sectors. Data were analyzed using multiple linear regression to test the influence of the employee engagement dimension—including emotional engagement, cognitive commitment, and social attachment—on employee retention intention. The results showed that all dimensions of employee engagement had a positive and significant influence on employee retention, with emotional engagement as the most dominant factor (β = 0.68; p < 0.01). The practical implications of this study emphasize the importance of developing holistic engagement programs, such as personalization training and interactive internal communication platforms, to increase employee loyalty of Millennials and Gen Z. The theoretical contributions of the research include an in-depth understanding of engagement mechanisms in the demographic context of the younger generation and Human Resources policy recommendations to strengthen retention strategies in the digital age.

Abstract

This study examines consumer responses to sustainable product labels (eco-labels) and their influence on purchasing decisions in Indonesia. Using a quantitative research design, data were collected from 150 respondents through a structured questionnaire with a 1–5 Likert scale. The data were analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling–Partial Least Squares (SEM-PLS 3) to evaluate both the measurement and structural models. Results indicate that eco-label perception has a significant positive effect on consumer trust and purchasing decisions. Furthermore, consumer trust plays a mediating role, strengthening the relationship between eco-label perception and purchase behavior. Environmental awareness also emerged as a strong determinant of purchasing decisions, showing that consumers who are more environmentally conscious are more responsive to eco-labels. The model demonstrated substantial explanatory power (R² = 0.62) for purchasing decisions, confirming the importance of eco-labels, trust, and awareness in shaping sustainable consumer behavior in Indonesia. These findings provide practical implications for businesses and policymakers in promoting eco-labeled products and fostering sustainable consumption.

Abstract

Personal finance skills are one of the important competencies that young people need to have in facing future economic challenges, given the increasingly complex global financial dynamics and the need to be able to manage resources effectively in order to survive and thrive amid economic uncertainty. However, the level of financial literacy among vocational high school (SMK) students is still relatively low, as reflected in the results of the National Survey on Financial Literacy and Inclusion by OJK (2019) which shows that only 38.03% of Indonesians have adequate financial literacy, including among students. Of the 30 samples used by using the method of sharing, discussion, and case studies on each student, many were still found to be unable to manage their finances. This financial training has succeeded in providing a basic understanding of good financial management to students of SMK Negeri 1 Kisaran. Through the material presented, students can apply the knowledge gained in their daily lives, from managing expenses, saving, to planning for the future.Keywords: financial literacy; financial skills; training vocational high school students Abstrak: Keterampilan keuangan pribadi merupakan salah satu kompetensi penting yang perlu dimiliki oleh generasi muda dalam menghadapi tantangan ekonomi di masa depan, mengingat semakin kompleksnya dinamika keuangan global dan kebutuhan untuk dapat mengelola sumberdaya secara efektif agar dapat bertahan dan berkembangan di tengah ketidakpastian ekonomi.
