Abstract

From 2020 to 2021, many KFC outlets are going into liquidation, because the companyhas suffered losses to the point where they cannot pay their obligations. Apart from the impact of the pandemic, the increasing number of competitors in the fast-food sector is also the cause of the decline in KFC's business. To survive, KFC must have service performance that can increase customer satisfaction, so that customers continue to choose KFC as a place to fulfill their desires. KFC in Sungai Dua, Gelugor,  Penang is the subject of this investigation. In conclusion, this study aims to examine customer satisfaction, happiness towards ambiance of perceived price, food quality, service quality, and physical environment quality, also to examine related services designed to meet customer needs. The atmosphere of the facilities, quality of service, quality of food, are important efforts to meet all the needs and desires of consumers and meet consumer expectations so that their business can continue to run and survive among its competitors. For KFC companies, we can find out the problems they have by using a survey method through questionnaires distributed to KFC customers which contain their satisfaction with service performance at KFC and what are the shortcomings that need to be improved from the services provided.

Abstract

Starbucks, an established company in the worldwide coffee sector, makes huge investments in creative marketing techniques to attract and keep consumers. This study aimed to investigate the impact of marketing campaigns and brand awareness on consumer purchasing intentions in Malaysia and India, focusing on Starbucks as a case study. A quantitative research approach was employed, using an online survey distributed via Google Forms to 150 Starbucks consumers across both countries. The results revealed that marketing campaigns have a substantial impact on consumer purchase intentions, with a beta value of 0.889 (*p 0.001), explaining 84.4% of the variance. In contrast, brand awareness, while positively related, had a lesser impact (beta = 0.068, p 0.05). These findings suggest that Starbucks' success lies in its ability to create marketing content that resonates deeply with consumer values and lifestyles, driving stronger purchase intentions. The study underscores the importance of targeted, value-aligned marketing strategies that foster emotional engagement and highlights the need for brands to focus on meaningful consumer interactions to sustain and grow purchase intentions

Abstract

Entrepreneurship among university students plays a crucial role in fostering innovation and economic development; however, many aspiring young entrepreneurs face significant barriers that limit their inclination to start a business. This study aims to identify and analyze the primary factors that hinder entrepreneurial inclination among Malaysian undergraduates. Using a quantitative approach, data were collected from 100 students through purposive sampling and analyzed using descriptive and regression analysis. The results reveal that fear of failure is the only barrier that significantly influences entrepreneurial inclination (? = 0.30, p = 0.01), while aversion to stress and hard work (? = -0.02, p = 0.10), risk aversion (? = -0.20, p = 0.19), lack of social networking (? = -0.06, p = 0.11), and lack of resources (? = 0.16, p = 0.13) show no significant effects. These findings suggest that psychological factors, particularly the perception of failure, play a more decisive role than structural constraints. The study provides theoretical contributions to behavioral models of entrepreneurship and offers practical implications for universities and policymakers to design programs that strengthen psychological resilience and entrepreneurial readiness among students.
