Abstract

This study explores strategies to improve product purchase decisions on TikTok Shop through the use of brand ambassadors and advertising. With the rise of social commerce, TikTok Shop has become a vital platform for digital marketing, highlighting the need for effective promotion. The research examines how brand ambassadors and advertising influence consumer behavior. A quantitative method was used, involving a purposive sample of 100 TikTok Shop users. Data were analyzed using SmartPLS 4.0, a PLS-SEM tool suitable for evaluating complex models and small samples. The measurement model assessed reliability and validity, while the structural model tested hypotheses. Results show that brand ambassadors significantly enhance consumer trust and perceived value, while advertising increases engagement and conversions. Both factors directly impact purchase intention and decisions, with intention acting as a mediator. The study concludes that combining brand ambassadors with targeted ads boosts product visibility and consumer confidence. These findings offer practical insights for businesses optimizing their TikTok Shop strategies

Abstract

This study aims to examine the role of Fear of Missing Out (FOMO) in moderating the influence of viral marketing and brand image on consumer purchase decisions of Kazamarts Indonesia's fashion products. A total of 100 respondents were selected using purposive sampling, targeting individuals who have engaged with Kazamarts' online marketing and have made or considered making a purchase. Data were collected using a Likert scale questionnaire ranging from 1 (strongly disagree) to 5 (strongly agree). The analysis was conducted using Partial Least Squares (PLS) to test the proposed structural model. The findings reveal that both viral marketing and brand image significantly influence FOMO and consumer purchase decisions. Furthermore, FOMO was found to moderate the relationship between viral marketing and purchase decisions, strengthening the effect, while its moderating role on brand image was less significant. These results highlight the importance of emotional triggers like FOMO in digital marketing strategies for fashion brands targeting online consumers.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the effect of brand image and product quality on consumer purchase intention toward Griya Batik Semarangan, with brand trust as a mediating variable. The research is motivated by the growing competition in the traditional fashion industry, especially among local batik producers, which requires a deeper understanding of consumer behavior and decision-making factors. A quantitative approach was employed, using a survey method by distributing questionnaires to 100 respondents who are consumers of Griya Batik Semarangan. The data were analyzed using Partial Least Squares (PLS) with the assistance of SmartPLS 4 software. The findings reveal that both brand image and product quality have a positive and significant influence on purchase intention, as well as on brand trust. However, brand trust does not have a significant effect on purchase intention and fails to mediate the relationship between brand image or product quality and purchase intention. These results suggest that while brand image and product quality are important in building consumer trust, brand trust is not the dominant factor driving purchase intention in the case of Griya Batik Semarangan. The study contributes to the literature on consumer behavior in local cultural products and provides practical implications for traditional fashion businesses in enhancing their market strategies.
