Abstract

Social media has become an increasingly important platform for shaping consumer behavior toward brands. Subsequently, social media is widely utilized and favored in most nations. This study examines the role of social media advertisement in shaping consumer behavior toward McDonald's. A mixed-methods approach was used, consisting of a survey of social media users and an analysis of McDonald's social media presence. The study found a mixed customer response to social media advertising. While a significant portion of respondents expressed initial interest in exploring products or services further after encountering them on social media, the research also identified a segment of customers who were less likely to be swayed by such marketing. The study also highlighted the influence of social media advertising on consumer behavior, particularly purchase decisions (beta = 0.340). However, the effectiveness of these ads likely depends on individual consumer interests and motivations. McDonald's should consider this when tailoring their social media advertising strategies.

Abstract

Starbucks' brand loyalty is influenced by several aspects, including pricing, products offered, product quality and taste. The purpose of this research is to determine how Starbucks develops brand loyalty among its customers in Malaysia, India, and Indonesia. This survey will also be able to determine whether Asian customers will continue to be devoted Starbucks customers. The survey involved 136 people who are loyal Starbucks consumers from Malaysia, India, and Indonesia. The data for this study was collected through online sources and questionnaires. The results of this study reveal that customer contentment, the quality of products and services, and the pricing of food and drinks greatly influence customer behavior and their inclination to remain loyal to the Starbucks brand. Among all the independent factors under consideration, customer satisfaction stands out as the most predominant, surpassing the other two variables. It is suggested for Starbucks to prioritize customer satisfaction by consistently exceeding performance and delivering exceptional, diverse beverage options with valuable pricing to meet and exceed customer expectations.

Abstract

The monetary climate has evolved due to the rapid advancement of digital payment systems, and Touch ‘n Go is one of the contactless smart card systems that is commonly used to conduct transactions, especially among younger generations. Touch ‘n Go is the foundation of the digital revolution within Malaysia’s mobility ecosystem, creating an enjoyable shopping experience for millions of Malaysians. Thus, this study investigates the factors influencing Millennials and Generation Z's intention to use e-wallets. The research focuses on four key variables: perceived security, perceived usefulness, consumer’s attitude, and social influence. Data was collected through a survey of 150 Millennials and Generation Z respondents and the impact of these factors on the intention to use e-wallets was analysed using quantitative methods. The findings show that perceived usefulness and consumer attitude significantly drive Touch ’n Go eWallet adoption, emphasizing functionality and user experience. However, perceived security and social influence had no significant impact on usage intention. The study offers insights for digital wallet providers and legislators looking to boost the adoption rate of digital payment systems in Malaysia.

Abstract

This study explores key influencing factors affecting marketing sales performance for the travel and tourism industry. Research has shown that the travel and tourism industries have become one of the important sectors. Due to uncertainties in today's highly competitive global economy, these industries have struggled to survive and sustain growth during the pandemic. Hence, it is justifiable to make further research on how to develop these industries. It is interesting to investigate factors that can enhance marketing sales performance for these industries. The literature review shows that sloganization, dynamic pricing and personal selling are three important key influencing factors. A conceptual model was proposed. Conclusion and limitations of this study are discussed in this study.

Abstract

McDonald’s Corporation, established in 1940, is an American multinational fast-food chain. Over the years, McDonald’s has successfully expanded their business operation worldwide. The customer plays a vital role in the success of a business. The strategies and abilities to retain a customer will determine the survival of a business. Hence, this study aims to investigate the strategies employed by McDonald's to foster long-term customer relationships by examining various factors, including food quality, service quality, atmosphere, price, brand, and customer relationships. To explore, primary and secondary data collection was conducted through several sources, and a digital questionnaire was produced to collect data and information from 150 respondents. The results found that only atmosphere and brand had a significant positive impact on customer relationships. The study found that atmosphere has the strongest influence, followed by brand. This suggests that while food quality, service quality, and price are important, creating a pleasant atmosphere and fostering a strong brand are even more critical for McDonald's to build lasting customer relationships.
