This study aims to examine the influence of product quality, service quality, and price on purchase decision interest in Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) in Surakarta. A quantitative approach was used in this research, employing purposive sampling to collect data from 200 respondents who met certain criteria: MSME customers in Surakarta aged 17-40 years who had made purchases more than twice. Primary data were collected through questionnaires based on a Likert scale and analyzed using Smart PLS version 3.0 software to perform Partial Least Square (PLS) testing. The results showed that product quality, service quality, and price significantly influence consumers' purchase decision interest. Product quality has the greatest influence on purchase decision interest, followed by service quality and price. These findings indicate that improving product and service quality, as well as setting competitive prices, can enhance consumer purchase interest in MSMEs in Surakarta. This study provides practical implications for MSMEs to focus on enhancing product and service quality and establishing effective pricing strategies to attract consumer purchase interest and decisions.

This study examines the influence of social media marketing activities, specifically entertainment and eWOM (electronic word-of-mouth), on brand loyalty, with brand awareness as a mediating factor. The main objective of this study is to explore how entertainment and eWOM influence brand loyalty through brand awareness in the context of fashion product marketing on TikTok social media. This study used a quantitative method with purposive sampling, involving 120 respondents who were surveyed through questionnaires. Results show that entertainment and eWOM significantly increase brand awareness, which in turn has a positive impact on brand loyalty. In addition, brand awareness fully mediates the relationship between entertainment and eWOM regarding brand loyalty. Entertainment on TikTok can create an emotional attachment with consumers, while eWOM serves as organic marketing that influences consumer decisions. Therefore, to increase brand loyalty, brands should create entertaining content and encourage consumers to share their positive experiences through eWOM. In conclusion, brand awareness plays an important role in building brand loyalty, and engaging content marketing and strong social interaction can increase brand awareness and consumer loyalty on social media platforms such as TikTok.

An entrepreneurial network is one of the most prominent strategic resources for business. Even though micro, small, and medium-sized enterprises (MSMEs) face several challenges arising from their liability of smallness, they can leverage the advantages of having strong network ties. This study aims to examine how social capital derived from entrepreneurial networks (both formal and informal) can encourage collaborative marketing innovation and speed-to-market to enhance marketing performance. A total of 161 MSME owners from various industries participated in a field survey that was conducted using self-administered questionnaires. Data is analyzed using Structural Equation Modelling with AMOS software. The Resource Advantage Theory of Competition (RAToC) emphasizes the dynamic nature of competition in provoking disequilibrium through collaboration with other organizations. The result shows that collaboration helps companies in integrating resources in the marketing innovation process such as obtaining input for product development and supporting product promotion. The study also indicates that collaborative marketing innovation has become the most salient variable that accelerates time-to-market and enhances MSME performance.

This research examines the influence of celebrity endorsers and perceived quality on the purchase intention of local beauty products, with brand loyalty as a mediator and negative publicity as a moderator. Using a quantitative approach with the Structural Equation Modeling-Partial Least Square (SEM-PLS) method, data from 180 respondents were analyzed. Convenience sampling, while practical, may limit generalizability due to potential bias. Future studies should consider more diverse sampling techniques. Findings indicate that celebrity endorsers significantly impact purchase intention and brand loyalty, with brand loyalty further enhancing purchase intention. Perceived quality indirectly influences purchase intention through brand loyalty. However, negative publicity does not significantly moderate the relationship between celebrity endorsers and purchase intention. This unexpected result suggests further exploration of the nature of negative publicity and potential moderating factors like product type or celebrity image. This study highlights brand loyalty’s critical role in purchasing behavior and offers insights for marketers on leveraging celebrity endorsers effectively. The findings contribute to marketing literature by reinforcing the strategic importance of brand loyalty and endorsement strategies. Future research should explore additional theoretical perspectives to strengthen understanding in consumer behavior and marketing.

This study investigates the impact of brand genuineness on brand fondness, brand discernment, and brand reliability among Uniqlo patrons. The research examines how brand genuineness influences these factors and whether brand discernment and reliability mediate this relationship. Additionally, it considers potential moderating variables such as demographics and purchase frequency. Utilizing a descriptive quantitative approach, data were collected through an online questionnaire from 224 respondents and analyzed using PLS-SEM. This method was chosen to provide a robust statistical examination of consumer perceptions and interactions with the brand. The findings reveal that brand genuineness significantly influences brand discernment, reliability, and fondness. Moreover, brand reliability demonstrates a stronger mediation effect on brand fondness compared to brand discernment. These results highlight the critical role of authenticity in consumer-brand relationships. This study contributes to marketing literature by reinforcing the importance of brand genuineness in building consumer trust and loyalty. It also offers practical insights for brand strategists aiming to enhance authenticity and foster deeper emotional connections with consumers. The findings underscore that brand genuineness is essential in cultivating consumer allegiance and confidence in the Uniqlo brand.
