Abstract

Indonesia is a beautiful archipelago, with its mountainous terrain making it a popular tourist destination. One such location is Lake Lut Tawar in Central Aceh Regency, ideal for camping. Companies must improve customer satisfaction and loyalty due to the intense competition in the Indonesian tourism industry, which attracts both domestic and international visitors. Customer loyalty is the dependent variable in this study, and customer satisfaction and revisit intention are the intervening variables. The independent variables examined in this study are experiential marketing and perceived price. The results show that experiential marketing has been shown to increase customer satisfaction; perceived price has been shown to increase customer satisfaction; experiential marketing has been shown to increase revisit intention; perceived price has been shown to increase revisit intention; experiential marketing has not been able to increase customer loyalty; perceived price has been shown to increase customer loyalty; customer satisfaction has been shown to increase customer loyalty; revisit intention has been shown to increase customer loyalty. In addition, customer satisfaction has a positive and significant effect on customer loyalty. This shows that when customer satisfaction increases, customer loyalty will increase; customer satisfaction cannot mediate the relationship between experiential marketing and customer loyalty. and finally, revisit intention partially mediates the relationship between perceived price and customer loyalty.

Abstract

This study examines how travel influencer attractiveness, trustworthiness, and content expertise influence behavioral intention to visit recommended post-disaster destinations through attitude toward a travel influencer. The research focuses on Central Aceh and Bener Meriah, Indonesia, and applies the Stimulus-Organism-Response framework. An online questionnaire yielded 155 eligible responses from Aceh residents who used TikTok, had viewed travel influencer content, and had previously visited either destination. Data were analyzed using partial least squares structural equation modeling in SmartPLS. Attractiveness and content expertise positively influenced attitude, whereas trustworthiness did not have a significant effect. Attitude and attractiveness positively influenced behavioral intention, while the direct effects of trustworthiness and content expertise were not significant. Attitude partially mediated the attractiveness-intention relationship and fully mediated the content expertise-intention relationship; the trustworthiness-mediated relationship was not significant. The model explained 74.0% of the variance in attitude and 78.3% in behavioral intention. Content expertise was the strongest predictor of attitude. The findings support selecting influencers for their content competence and appealing presentation, while emphasizing favorable audience attitudes in post-disaster tourism communication.

Abstract

This study examines the role of brand awareness in mediating the effects of taste, brand trust, perceived quality, and brand love on tourist purchasing decisions for Gayo Arabica Coffee in Central Aceh Regency. All variables were measured using a Likert scale. Primary data were collected through questionnaires administered to 210 tourists who had purchased or consumed Gayo Arabica Coffee while visiting tourist destinations in Central Aceh Regency. The data were analyzed using path analysis with WarpPLS version 7.0. The results show that taste, perceived quality, and brand love significantly affect brand awareness, whereas brand trust does not. Brand awareness, brand trust, and brand love significantly affect tourist purchasing decisions, whereas taste and perceived quality do not have significant direct effects. Path analysis further shows that brand awareness mediates the effects of taste, perceived quality, and brand love on tourist purchasing decisions, but does not mediate the effect of brand trust. These findings position brand awareness as an important intervening mechanism in tourists’ purchasing decisions for Gayo Arabica Coffee.
