Abstract

The primary focus of this study is to analyze how brand gestalt affects the brand equity of Bali as a destination for tourism. Previous research has not delved deeply into this area, leaving a gap in both practical and theoretical understanding. Therefore, this study seeks to address this gap by establishing a stronger link between various aspects of brand gestalt and brand equity. Data from 305 individuals who had visited Bali, Indonesia, was collected to validate the dimensions of the brand gestalt scale. Using a Structural Equation Model (SEM) analysis with the smartPLS statistical program, the proposed model was tested. The results indicated that not all dimensions of brand gestalt (story, sensescape, servicescape, and stakeholder) have a positive and significant impact on components of brand equity such as perceived quality, brand awareness, brand image, brand associations, and brand loyalty. While servicescape does show significant influences on all component of brand equity, the story dimension only has a significant impact on brand associations and brand loyalty, in contrast to stakeholder dimension, which does not significantly affect these components.

Abstract

  More research is needed, particularly examining the connection between service quality and patient happiness in the setting of faith-based hospitals. This study seeks to fill this empirical void by investigating the correlation between service quality, patient satisfaction, and the intention to recommend a faith-based private hospital. An empirical study was carried out from October to November 2022, with a sample of 200 participants who underwent medical treatment at religiously affiliated facilities in Manado, North Sulawesi, Indonesia. The quantitative data were examined using structural equation modelling (SEM) using SmartPLS version 3.2. The results suggest that the quality of healthcare services has a favourable impact on consumer satisfaction. The intention to promote healthcare services is strongly influenced by patient satisfaction. Moreover, patient satisfaction completely mediates the association between healthcare service quality and recommendation intention. Furthermore, the study highlights reliability as the primary determinant in forecasting the quality of healthcare services. The findings enhance comprehension of the dynamics within faith-based hospital settings, guiding strategic initiatives to enhance healthcare delivery and patient outcomes.

Using a quantitative descriptive and exploratory approach, this research investigates various factors shaping parents' interest in choosing a school. The population examined were parents of students attending private Christian schools, resulting in a purposive sample of 235 respondents. The sampling technique targets parents actively involved in the school community and has varying levels of involvement and perspectives on the school selection process. Data was collected through an online survey conducted between June and September 2023. Next, Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) using SmartPLS was used for data analysis. This study identified eight factors influencing parental decision-making: teacher ability, school location, religious values, school facilities, school image, perceived costs, school environment, and school safety. The implications of these findings highlight the school's strategy to increase its attractiveness, thereby increasing school enrollment rates.

Abstract

This research examines the influence of brand gestalt variables, especially the four dimensions, story, sensescape, servicescape, stakeholders, on word-of-mouth marketing and the revisit intention. This research has eight hypotheses with a sample size of 175 obtained from the distribution of questionnaires carried out in October and November 2023.

Abstract

Although the interplay of social media marketing (SMM) on brand image and purchase intention has been studied extensively, insights into the link between these variables in the context of the local product remain scarce, specifically from generation Z’s customer point of view. Therefore, this study aims to fill this theoretical gap by investigating the role of SMM on brand image and purchase intention of local products in the perception of generation Z. A survey-based data was collected using purposive sampling from 184 respondents of generation Z. The data were then analyzed using SmartPLS statistical software. The result reveals that SMM positively and significantly influences the brand image and Gen Z’s intention to purchase the local product. Meanwhile, brand image was a positive predictor of purchase intention. Additionally, brand image mediates the relationship between SMM and purchase intention, such that SMM influences brand image, leading to purchase intention.

Abstract

Although the impact of work-life balance and job satisfaction on employee performance has been extensively studied, there still lacks a comprehensive understanding of the interplay among these variables among millennials and generation Z (gen Z) employees. This present inquiry, therefore, aims to systematically analyze how work-life balance and job satisfaction affect millennials’ and gen Z’s performance. Following a systematic literature review approach, relevant studies published in 2018-2022 were derived from two main academic databases (Google scholar and Research gate). Thirty-five peer-reviewed articles were then carefully selected and analyzed. The result shows that (1) work-life balance and job satisfaction positively affect millennial’s and gen Z’s performance; (2) gen Z are more idealists in thriving for work and growth (3) millennials and gen Z put a value on the supportive work environment, supportive supervisor, and career opportunity for job satisfaction (4) millennial and gen Z put a value on flexibility of work hours, annual leave and work from home for work-life balance.

Abstract

This study aims to construct and validate a theoretical framework that explains the impact of social media on café branding and customer loyalty, with brand gestalt serving as a mediating variable. The study employed a quantitative descriptive and correlational research design, collecting data through questionnaires from a sample of 200 Gen Z café customers in Manado City. Participants were recruited using a combination of snowball and convenience sampling techniques. Data analysis was performed using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) to explore relationships within the dataset. The results show that SMM significantly impacts the story, servicescape, sensescape, stakeholder, and brand loyalty. Additionally, story, sensescape, and servicescape all significantly influence brand loyalty. Furthermore, Results indicate that the story dimension of brand gestalt mediates the relationship between SMM and brand loyalty. The emphasis on social media marketing may not fully capture the influence of other marketing channels, and the sample size or geographic scope might limit the generalizability of the results. Future research could explore emotional engagement, brand equity, or other digital marketing strategies like influencer and content marketing while expanding to different industries or regions for broader insights. The study contributes to the theoretical understanding of brand gestalt by highlighting how specific dimensions—story, sensescape, and servicescape—positively impact customer loyalty. It extends existing theories by demonstrating that these dimensions, along with social media marketing, play crucial roles in shaping brand perceptions and loyalty.
