Abstract

This paper aims to investigate the factors that influence the brand image of a destination. This research examines the impact of destination brand awareness, brand quality, and e-WOM on destination brand image. The sample data used in this study were 112 respondents from 7 provinces in Indonesia. Multiple linear regression was used to test the significance of the effect of the independent variable on the dependent variable. The results of the IBM SPSS 25 test show that the destination and the quality of the destination brand can affect the destination's brand image; on the other hand, e-WOM cannot. Tour service providers can predict tourist behaviour through this paper. As for academics, this paper can be used for further research by integrating branding strategies as predictors of the destination image. Empirically this research helps improve understanding of how to communicate a brand in a destination.

Abstract

This study explores the adoption and integration of digital platforms, such as e-commerce, social media, and financial technology, in MSME operations. It aims to identify managerial practices in the digital transformation process, examine MSME actors’ perceptions of the impact on business efficiency, market performance, and customer engagement, and determine the factors influencing digital platform effectiveness. Using a qualitative case study approach, the research focused on five MSMEs from various sectors, including culinary, retail, manufacturing, creative industries, and fashion. Data was collected through semi-structured interviews and analyzed with the N-Vivo 12 application. Findings indicate that digital platforms improve access to data from suppliers and customers, but challenges like delays and technical issues persist. The integration of digital systems with business partners offers significant benefits, although synchronization issues remain a barrier. Real-time data exchange enhances operational efficiency, yet technical challenges and varying technological skills among partners need attention. Information security, with encryption and two-factor authentication, is also a priority. The study suggests improvements in training and infrastructure to support MSMEs in adopting digital technologies, contributing to the understanding of digital platforms' impact on MSME growth and operations.

Abstract

Rendahnya literasi keuangan dan minimnya pemahaman mengenai investasi legal pada kalangan remaja menjadi tantangan yang dapat memicu perilaku konsumtif, ketergantungan pada pinjaman digital, serta meningkatnya risiko menjadi korban investasi ilegal. Kondisi tersebut juga ditemukan pada remaja dan pemuda di Desa Karang Tengah, sehingga diperlukan upaya edukasi yang tidak hanya meningkatkan pengetahuan, tetapi juga membentuk pola pikir berkembang (growth mindset) dalam pengelolaan keuangan. Kegiatan pengabdian kepada masyarakat ini bertujuan meningkatkan literasi keuangan melalui edukasi pasar modal berbasis Growth Mindset-Based Financial Education. Metode pelaksanaan meliputi analisis kebutuhan, penyusunan materi, seminar interaktif, diskusi, studi kasus, serta evaluasi partisipatif dengan sasaran remaja dan pemuda Desa Karang Tengah. Hasil kegiatan menunjukkan adanya peningkatan pemahaman peserta mengenai pentingnya perencanaan keuangan, karakteristik instrumen investasi yang legal, serta kemampuan membedakan investasi legal dan ilegal. Selain itu, peserta menunjukkan antusiasme yang tinggi dan mulai memahami bahwa kemampuan mengelola keuangan serta berinvestasi dapat dipelajari melalui proses belajar yang berkelanjutan. Kegiatan ini menunjukkan bahwa integrasi growth mindset dengan edukasi pasar modal berpotensi menjadi pendekatan yang efektif dalam membentuk perilaku finansial yang lebih bijaksana, sehingga layak dikembangkan melalui program pendampingan dan monitoring secara berkelanjutan.

Abstract

Used cooking oil is a household waste that can cause environmental pollution if improperly disposed of, but also has economic potential when processed into value-added products. This community service program aimed to improve community knowledge and skills in converting used cooking oil into aromatic candles. The program was conducted in Kadipiro, Manunggal, and Cidelaras Hamlets, Karangengah Village, Semarang Regency, targeting homemakers, members of the Family Welfare Movement (PKK), and other women's groups. The program applied the Participatory Training and Economic Empowerment (PTEE) approach, consisting of observation, socialization, demonstration, hands-on practice, and evaluation through practical observation and questionnaires. A total of 85 participants attended the program. The evaluation results showed that 92% of participants could independently produce aromatic candles after the training, indicating improved practical skills. The program successfully promoted the utilization of used cooking oil as a value-added product while supporting household waste reduction and community economic empowerment.

Abstract

Small and Medium Enterprises are key drivers of the national economy; however, many Small and Medium Enterprises in Samirono Village still operate without formal business documentation, such as a Business Identification Number (NIB). This lack of legal status limits their access to financing, halal certification, PIRT registration, and product promotion opportunities. Low digital literacy and the absence of technical guidance further exacerbate these challenges. To address this issue, the KKN KSEI UIN Salatiga team organized a mentoring program on March 22, 2025, at Samirono Village Hall, aiming to assist Small and Medium Enterprises in obtaining legal recognition and navigating the Online Single Submission (OSS) system. The program successfully facilitated the issuance of NIBs for four Small and Medium Enterprises through direct technical assistance. The results highlight that hands-on education and mentoring are effective in transforming Small and Medium Enterprises from the informal to the formal sector. Sustained collaboration between village authorities, universities, and relevant institutions is essential to ensure the long-term development and competitiveness of Small and Medium Enterprises.
