Abstract

Traditional healers in Solo and Wonosobo face increasing challenges in engaging young people, despite the widespread use of digital platforms by this demographic. This study explores the adoption of digital marketing strategies by traditional healers to enhance their outreach to youth. Employing a qualitative approach, semi-structured interviews were conducted with healers in both regions to examine their current practices and perceptions regarding digital engagement. The findings reveal that while a few healers, such as Ibu Ani, have effectively utilized platforms like TikTok and Instagram, most still rely heavily on word-of-mouth promotion. Limited use of digital media stems from a lack of technological skills and insufficient content tailored to youth preferences. The study is guided by Uses and Gratifications Theory to understand how young people seek and interact with online health content. The results suggest that to improve engagement, traditional healers should adopt more interactive and youth-oriented digital strategies, including collaboration with influencers and the use of culturally resonant content. These findings offer practical insights for revitalizing traditional medicine in the digital age.

Abstract

In the ever-evolving realm of digital marketing, this study delves into how micro-influencer credibility—conceptualized through the dimensions of expertise, trustworthiness, and attractiveness—shapes consumer purchase intent on social media platforms. Grounded in Source Credibility Theory, the research employs a quantitative design, gathering responses from 270 social media users via a structured online survey. Employing Structural Equation Modeling (SEM-PLS), the analysis uncovers that while trustworthiness and attractiveness significantly sway consumer behavior, expertise surprisingly falls short of exerting measurable impact. This departure from prior emphasis on knowledge-based persuasion suggests a shifting consumer landscape—where authenticity and visual appeal resonate more than authority. Even more striking is the discovery that variations in age, gender, and social media habits do not meaningfully moderate these relationships. This uniformity underscores a broad psychological consistency in how consumers evaluate influencers. Marketers and practitioners, therefore, are encouraged to recalibrate their strategies, prioritizing emotional resonance and personal branding over technical qualifications.

Abstract

This study aims to promote community engagement through government communication from RT heads. Some RT leaders seek to enhance community engagement, while others fail to carry out their duties. To provide critical-descriptive analysis, data was collected using qualitative methods such as observation, interviews, and documentation procedures. As a result, the government's communication strategy of combining face-to-face contact, exemplary communication by RT heads, and dialogic communication that positions RT inhabitants as RT partners was successful in boosting residents' support for PMI and Bazis fundraising targets. It was determined that the RT heads' communication and leadership were significant factors in developing community support and engagement.
