Abstract

The prevalence of online shopping also gave rise to irrational shopping behavior like impulse buying, which makes up a large share of e-retailer revenue. This study’s objective was to analyze the factors that affect impulse buying (i.e., website quality, sales promotion, and fashion consciousness) within the context of apparel/fashion product purchase. Besides, this study also sought to examine the role of sales promotion in moderating the relationship between website quality and impulse buying. An online survey with a final sample size of 211 respondents was carried out using Google Forms and analyzed with Confirmatory Factor Analysis and multiple regression analysis (using R Statistical Software) to analyze four hypotheses. The result indicated that website quality did not affect impulse buying, while sales promotion and fashion consciousness was found to affect impulse buying positively. However, the role of website quality was still critical, since it still played a role as a hygiene factor. Once website quality interacted with sales promotion, it could positively affect impulse buying. Keywords: fashion consciousness, impulse buying, sales promotion, website quality

Abstract

This research investigated how subjective norm and motives from Uses and Gratifications Theory (UGT) affected continuance participation intention. In addition, this research examined the role of gender as a moderating variable in the relationship. A moderated regression analysis was conducted on a sample of 246 respondents selected by purposive sampling technique. The result indicates that subjective norm, all uses, and gratifications motives in the model (information seeking, self-discovery, maintaining interpersonal connectivity, social enhancement, and entertainment value) affect continuance participation intention of female students. For male students, information seeking does not significantly affect continuance participation intention. Subjective norm affects male students more strongly than female students. Then, information seeking affects female students more than male students. This research adds more insights into the literature on continuance participation intention, particularly on the role of gender.

Abstract

The use of post-purchase online consumer review in hotel attributes study was still scarce in the literature. Arguably, post purchase online review data would gain more accurate attributes thatconsumers actually consider in their purchase decision. This study aims to extract attributes from two samples of five-star hotel reviews (Jakarta and Singapore) with text mining methodology. In addition,this study also aims to describe positioning of five-star hotels in Jakarta and Singapore based on the extracted attributes using Correspondence Analysis. This study finds that reviewers of five star hotels in both cities mentioned similar attributes such as service, staff, club, location, pool and food. Attributes derived from text mining seem to be viable input to build fairly accurate positioning map of hotels. This study has demonstrated the viability of online review as a source of data for hotel attribute and positioning studies.

Abstract

Position and brand image are important and crucial in marketing strategy. Brand position and image form strong associations with targeted consumers used to differentiate a brand from its competitors. Companies must understand good marketing strategies to improve their brand position in society based on consumer perspective. During the Covid-19 pandemic, especially in 2021, there was a unique phenomenon, whereby the demand for Bear Brand Milk was greater than the market leader, namely Ultra milk, while Ultra milk was even cheaper than the Bear Brand milk. This phenomenon is discussed on social media, especially Twitter regarding opinions from consumers in purchasing the products. This study aims to determine whether online text reviews can provide an overview of the position and brand image of Bear Brand Milk using LIWC (Linguistic Inquiry and Word Count) sentiment analysis and PCA (Principal Component Analysis). Based on our analysis, we can conclude that LIWC can provide an overview regarding the brand image and brand positioning of Bear Brand milk and Ultra milk. Brand image is obtained from variables that describe psychological variables when using or imagining the brands. Brand Position through PCA analysis describes the difference in gain between the dominant variables in the two brands.

Abstract

Manuscript type: Empirical paper Research Aims: This paper aims to identify the topics of social media posts (on Twitter) from local skincare brands in Indonesia. Design/methodology/approach: This descriptive study applied text analysis methods, specifically frequency analysis and topic modeling with the Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) method. Data were collected from the top four skincare brands with over 10,000 followers using Twitter Academic API interfaced through the Twarc package in Python. The dataset contained 1290 tweets from Wardah, 17,491 tweets from Avoskin, 1,968 tweets from Somethinc, and 590 tweets from Whitelab. The data analysis used quanteda and topicmodels packages from R software. Research findings: The findings revealed that the brands’ tweets can be categorised into 8-10 topics, which can be distilled further into three significant functions proposed by Saxton and Waters (2014): information, promotion and mobilisation, and community building and dialogue. Theoretical Contribution/Originality: This study adds to the body of knowledge regarding social media marketing by adding insights into how local Indonesian brands carry out their social media marketing efforts. Practitioner/Policy Implication: The findings implied that marketing managers should emphasise providing timely and relevant information as a base that can be used to build dialogic communication efforts with their audience. Research limitation/Implications: This study only looked at four brands in the local skincare product category. In addition, this study applied automated topic modeling with LDA, which needed an a priori number of topics, which might affect the topic labelling. Furthermore, this study’s scope was limited to categorising the brand posts without examining the effects of brand post types on engagement metrics. Future studies can examine more samples by observing other product categories, applying thematic analysis to code each tweet, and comparing the results to topic modeling results. Lastly, future studies can examine the relationship between brand post types/categories and engagement metrics such as likes, comments, and retweets.
