Abstract

ABSTRACT Green marketing is a further action strategy from sustainability to repair an increasingly damaged environment. Aside from being a human responsibility, green marketing trends are also used to gain a competitive advantage amid the increasingly fierce competition in the cosmetics industry. Herborist is one of the products that carry out green marketing. Although Herborist is a product that is well known by many people, its marketing has not been maximized so it can be said that it is still less competitive than other green products. On the other hand, consumers are increasingly aware that environmental damage cannot be ignored so green consumption is increasing. This concern for the environment is used by Herborist products to attract market attention. In addition to this phenomenon, a gap in the results of previous studies was found, namely the inconsistent relationship between Environmental Concern and Green Purchase Intention. This study aims to develop a conceptual model on how to manage Environmental Concern by using the Self-Congruence Theory approach so as to increase Green Purchase Intention in Herborist beauty products through Green Product Involvement and Self-Image Congruence. Data collection was obtained by 110 respondents using the questionnaire method with the criteria of having purchased Herborist products at least once and domiciled in Semarang. The data processed and analyzed using the Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) method, using the Analysis Moment of Structural (AMOS) software. The results of this study found that environmental concern has a positive and significant impact on green purchase intention through green product involvement and self-image congruence. Therefore, all hypotheses in this study were accepted. The managerial implications of this research are expected can be useful in developing the company's marketing strategy for Herborist products

Abstract

The past few decades have witnessed a dramatic rise in consumer interest for environmental protection, pushing companies to adopt more sustainable practices. This shift is reflected in the explosion of green marketing, particularly on social media platforms. Social media serves as an important communication channel for today's environmentally conscious and socially active consumers, making it a prime target for companies promoting eco-friendly products and initiatives. While prior research has explored green marketing in general, the specific influence of green marketing on social media and its impact on consumer purchase decisions remain relatively under-investigated. This systematic literature review, conducted using PRISMA guidelines, analyses relevant academic journals published between 2019 and 2024. It examines how companies leverage social media using green marketing, and how these efforts influence consumer’s purchase decision journey. This in-depth analysis provided a descriptive breakdown of the included articles, categorizing them by author, publication year, journal, citations, and other relevant information. This systematic review offers valuable insights into current trends within the realm of green social media marketing. It not only highlights established research directions but also pinpoints areas where further investigation is crucial. This comprehensive literature review outlines current trends on the topic, identifies gaps in existing research, and proposes directions for future studies.

Abstract

Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) in Indonesia play a crucial role in supporting the national economy, contributing significantly to employment and the gross domestic product. However, many MSMEs have yet to fully leverage digital marketing due to limited digital literacy, restricted access to technology, and uneven infrastructure, particularly in remote areas. With the increasing use of the internet and social media in Indonesia, digital marketing strategies present a promising opportunity for MSMEs to expand their market reach, enhance customer engagement, and strengthen competitiveness. Through a systematic literature review, this study evaluates the implementation of digital marketing by MSMEs, including the use of social media and e-commerce platforms to increase brand visibility and foster more personal interactions with consumers. The analysis reveals that digital marketing enables MSMEs to enhance customer loyalty and reach wider markets at relatively low costs. Nevertheless, limitations in technological capability and low digital literacy remain significant barriers. This study highlights the importance of government support in the form of digital literacy training and equitable technology access to enable MSMEs to optimize their digital marketing strategies. Such support is essential to accelerate MSME digital transformation and improve their business sustainability in the competitive digital marketplace.

Abstract

This study explores the interplay between Social Media Marketing (SMM) strategies and tourists’ intention to visit, mediated by local wisdom, within the framework of Community-Based Tourism (CBT) in Magelang, Indonesia. Employing a quantitative approach, this research gathers data from 100 respondents selected through purposive sampling, targeting active social media users interested in visiting Magelang. The findings reveal that SMM significantly enhances tourists' intention to visit both directly and indirectly via the perception of local wisdom. Local wisdom emerges as a pivotal mediator, fostering cultural authenticity and strengthening emotional bonds with the destination. This underscores its dual role as a cultural preservation tool and a strategic enhancer of destination appeal. The study provides novel insights into the integration of traditional cultural elements into contemporary digital marketing practices. By merging modern technological platforms with rich cultural narratives, this research advances the discourse on sustainable tourism marketing, particularly in underrepresented regions. Implications for policy makers, tourism marketers, and community stakeholders are discussed, highlighting the potential of CBT to foster economic growth, cultural sustainability, and community empowerment.

Abstract

This study aims to bridge previous inconsistent research regarding the role of social media marketing on business performance. The design in this study is applied with a quantitative approach. The theoretical model was tested on 200 samples of Coffeeshop businesses in Semarang City, Indonesia. Data analysis was carried out with AMOS software. The novelty of this study lies in the variables and indicators that are deduced from the resource advantage theory of competition. We combine simple mediation effect testing that produces destination competitiveness to be a good intermediary in the influence of social media marketing on business performance. The rejection of the two hypotheses leaves a gap for future studies to be able to be explored further.

Abstract

Building and maintaining effective relationships is crucial for business success. Therefore, this study reviews existing research and provides a comprehensive overview of relational capability (RC). Recognizing the importance of RC, this study conducts a systematic literature review (SLR) by analyzing 221 articles from the Scopus database (2013–2023) using the Publish or Perish software. After applying specific selection criteria, 83 articles focusing on RC were chosen for in-depth analysis. The findings reveal significant gaps in RC research, particularly in terms of theoretical approaches, methodologies, and contextual applications, which offer opportunities to enrich the existing body of knowledge. The study emphasizes that RC skills—such as communication, empathy, trust-building, conflict resolution, and collaboration—are essential for sales professionals to understand customer needs, build strong relationships, and achieve sales targets. This study contributes to the understanding of relational capability by integrating various theoretical frameworks and employing quantitative, qualitative, and mixed methods. It offers a comprehensive overview of organizational interactions and their implications for sustainable growth and competitive advantage.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the impact of social media content on the visit intention of domestic tourists to Gedongsongo Temple, with online reviews and social visibility acting as mediators. Based on Self-Congruence Theory, the research explores how the alignment between social media content and tourists' self-image can enhance personal engagement, ultimately driving visit intention. Using a quantitative approach with a survey, the study involves 113 respondents who have either visited or seen content about Gedongsongo Temple on social media, analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM-PLS). The findings indicate that appealing and authentic social media content increases online reviews that align with consumers' self-image, consequently boosting visit intention. Moreover, credible and informative online reviews about the destination also enhance social visibility and encourage more tourists to visit. Online reviews serve as a mediator that strengthens the relationship between social media content and visit intention. The social visibility gained through online reviews and interactions on social media amplifies the effect of social media content on tourists' intention to visit Gedongsongo Temple. These findings provide insights for destination managers to leverage authentic content and collaborations with influencers on social media to enhance destination appeal and attract tourists, supporting the sustainability of local tourism economies.
