Abstract

Abstract. The shift of business into the digital era demands the banking industry to innovate in serving customers. One of the innovations by PT. Bank Rakyat Indonesia is the e-channel service named Brilink, which is spread across all regions. Local entrepreneurs are appointed as Brilink agents with the aim of providing banking services to individuals who are not yet served by banks, both unbanked and unbankable as stipulated in Article 16 of POJK No. 19/POJK.03/2014. Public distrust towards Brilink agents is attributed to the quality of service provided by these agents, which does not align with BRI's service standards, particularly in utilizing the Brilink application. Therefore, this research aims to examine the influence of the service quality, customer satisfaction, and trust variables on customer loyalty at Brilink agents in North Sumatra, Indonesia. This study employs a quantitative approach with a sample size of 400 respondent customers of Brilink agents. The research offers insights into the role of Brilink agents in marketing products, thus facilitating their understanding and utilization by customers. Furthermore, it holds social benefits in enhancing financial literacy and inclusion among the population in North Sumatra, ultimately contributing to welfare improvement and economic growth. Keywords: service quality, customer satisfaction, trust, customer loyalty.

Abstract

The rapid growth of tower assets among Indonesia's three main tower providers shows the increasingly tight competition within the telecommunications business. Therefore, this research analyzed the mediating effect of customer satisfaction on customer loyalty with customer relationship management (CRM) and company reputation as predictors using data from customer satisfaction research conducted with Mitratel clients. The data collected comprised 155 current and former customers of the Mitratel Tower company, collected from survey responses. The data was qualitatively evaluated and analyzed statistically using data processing techniques applied in the SEM-PLS analysis procedure. The result showed that CRM and company reputation directly impact customer satisfaction and loyalty. However, the impact of CRM on loyalty cannot be influenced directly due to the complexity of factors affecting customer loyalty. While customer satisfaction is important in building loyalty, other factors such as price, service quality, brand reputation, and psychological factors also play a significant role. This research provides in-depth insight into how factors such as customer satisfaction, CRM, and company reputation interact to influence customer loyalty. It is also an important basis for Mitratel Companies to design more effective policies and strategies to improve business performance and maintain market share. Keywords—CRM; Company Reputation; Customer Satisfaction; Customer Loyalty

Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic has caused a decline in various aspects of the economy, including the fashion sector. Many fashion retailers have closed, so sales have fallen. However, many retailers can also adapt and change using new communication channels. This change presents new challenges for fashion companies and retailers to integrate channels into omnichannel services. This study aims to analyze the factors influencing customer behavior in omnichannel services through their intention to accept and use new technology in shopping. This study adopts the UTAUT2 model by adding two new variables: personal innovation and perceived security. This model was tested on 353 samples from Uniqlo customers residing in Indonesia. This research method uses a Quantitative PLS-SEM approach. This study tested the outer model, inner model, and hypothesis t-test with a bootstrap procedure using SmartPLS software. The results showed that the performance expectation factor did not affect the omnichannel purchase intention variable because the t-statistic value is less than 1.65. Meanwhile, other factors such as effort expectation, social influences, habits, hedonic motivation, perceived security, and personal innovativeness affect omnichannel purchase intentions because the t-statistic value is more than 1.65. The most positive and significant factor is personal innovativeness. Based on the results of this study, it is revealed that digitalization creates challenges for companies in maintaining digital businesses. Through various omnichannel service channels, this research can identify the factors influencing consumers' purchase intention

Abstract

Since 2008, the Japanese whiskey business has grown steadily. Overall, the whiskey market (at factory price) is expected to reach $2.95 billion in 2019, accounting for 8.6 percent of the entire alcoholic beverage industry. The rise in popularity of Japanese whiskey is associated with the country's growing international reputation. Founded 1985 as an independent bottler, Master of Malt was the first company to service clients who ordered single malt whiskey through the mail-order system. Master of Malt's omnichannel approach encompasses all channels available to the company. Known as their 'omnichannel,' this refers to the organization's capability to provide speed and precision from any place at any time. As their brand has grown over the years, they have used various marketing strategies, including a website redesign and rebuild that involved the creation of all relevant content and designing and constructing landing pages for their website. Following a clustering technique, we discovered that the data is being divided into four distinct groups and that these clusters may serve as a recommender system based on the occurrence of terms in each of the categories. Our summarizing component combined phrases related to the exact subtopics and provided users with a concise summary and sentimental information about the group of phrases.
