Abstract

The Originote is a local skincare brand that has rapidly expanded in the Indonesian market, especially among young consumers seeking affordable yet effective beauty products. The brand has successfully captured public attention through continuous product innovation, minimalist packaging, and effective branding strategies that leverage social media and influencer marketing. However, despite this rapid growth, The Originote faces significant challenges related to consumer trust, particularly due to emerging negative issues surrounding the accuracy of product ingredient claims. These controversies have raised questions about product transparency and may potentially affect customer loyalty in the long term. This study aims to analyze the influence of brand trust and product quality on consumer loyalty, with brand image serving as a mediating variable. The research focuses on consumer perceptions of The Originote, specifically those who shop at Amalia Beauty Store in Kendal. A quantitative research approach was used, with purposive sampling to select 97 respondents who are known users of The Originote products. Data were collected through a structured questionnaire and analyzed using Smart-PLS 4 software for Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM). The results indicate that brand trust has a positive and significant effect on consumer loyalty. However, surprisingly, brand trust does not significantly influence brand image, and neither brand image nor product quality has a direct significant impact on consumer loyalty. Furthermore, brand image does not mediate the relationship between brand trust, product quality, and consumer loyalty. These findings suggest that while trust remains a critical factor in fostering loyalty, other elements—possibly including emotional attachment, personal values, or customer experience—may also play a significant role. The study offers useful insights for marketers seeking to strengthen long-term relationships with consumers in a highly competitive skincare industry.

Abstract

Penelitian ini dilatarbelakangi oleh persaingan industri kecantikan yang semakin ketat menuntut perusahaan untuk meningkatkan kualitas produk dan strategi pemasaran agar mampu memengaruhi keputusan pembelian konsumen. Salah satu pendekatan yang relevan dalam konteks ini adalah melalui pemanfaatan media sosial dan penguatan kualitas produk, dengan minat beli sebagai variabel perantara. Studi ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis pengaruh kualitas produk dan social media marketing terhadap keputusan pembelian produk Skintific, dengan minat beli sebagai variabel intervening. Subjek penelitian adalah konsumen Jelita Cosmetics di Rembang yang telah membeli produk Skintific. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode kuantitatif dengan pendekatan asosiatif kausal. Teknik pengumpulan data dilakukan melalui penyebaran kuesioner kepada 96 responden yang dipilih menggunakan metode purposive sampling. Data dianalisis dengan metode Partial Least Square (PLS) menggunakan perangkat lunak SmartPLS 4. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa kualitas produk dan social media marketing berpengaruh positif dan signifikan terhadap minat beli dan keputusan pembelian. Selain itu, minat beli juga memiliki pengaruh positif dan signifikan terhadap keputusan pembelian. Minat beli terbukti memediasi secara signifikan pengaruh kualitas produk dan social media marketing terhadap keputusan pembelian. Temuan ini menegaskan bahwa persepsi positif terhadap kualitas produk dan strategi pemasaran melalui media sosial dapat meningkatkan minat beli, yang pada gilirannya mendorong keputusan pembelian. Keterbatasan penelitian ini terletak pada ruang lingkup geografis yang hanya mencakup wilayah Rembang dan jumlah sampel yang terbatas, sehingga generalisasi hasil masih terbatas. Penelitian mendatang disarankan untuk memperluas wilayah penelitian, menambah jumlah sampel, serta memasukkan variabel eksternal lain guna memperkaya model analisis.

Abstract

This study aims to evaluate the influence of Content Marketing, the Live Marketplace feature, and discounts on purchasing decisions for Skintific skincare products on the Shopee platform, with consumer trust as an intermediary variable. The background of this study is based on the increasing use of marketplaces in online shopping activities, as well as the increasing trend of self-care as part of the lifestyle of the younger generation, especially students. This development encourages business actors to implement effective digital marketing strategies, including through social media, engaging content, and interactive features available on marketplaces such as Shopee. This study uses a quantitative approach with a survey method. Respondents in this study were students at the University of the Indonesian Teachers Association (UPGRIS) Semarang who had purchased Skintific products through the Shopee platform. Data were collected using a closed-ended questionnaire and analyzed using path analysis techniques using statistical software. The results show that Content Marketing and the use of the Live Marketplace feature have a positive and significant influence on consumer trust. Consumer trust is proven to be an important factor that significantly influences purchasing decisions. Conversely, discounts do not have a direct effect on purchasing decisions, but have a significant indirect impact when mediated by consumer trust. These findings indicate that emotional aspects and perceived trust in the brand are more dominant in influencing purchasing behavior than discount factors alone. Overall, this study emphasizes the importance of implementing appropriate and integrated digital marketing strategies, especially through content marketing and utilizing the Live Marketplace feature, in building consumer trust and driving product purchasing decisions on e-commerce platforms.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the influence of product quality, price, and product innovation on purchasing decisions for Viva lipstick, with brand image as a mediating variable, among female university students in Semarang. The research employed a quantitative approach with a survey method, using purposive sampling of 100 female students who use Viva lipstick. Data were collected through a structured questionnaire and analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) to examine both direct and indirect relationships among the variables. The results reveal that product quality has a positive and significant effect on both purchasing decisions and brand image. This indicates that consumers’ perceptions of Viva lipstick’s quality—such as color durability, texture smoothness, and comfort in use—play an important role in shaping a positive brand image and encouraging purchasing decisions. In contrast, price and product innovation were found to have no significant effect on either purchasing decisions or brand image, suggesting that the current pricing strategy and product innovation efforts have not yet become the main attraction for consumers. Brand image was found to have a positive and significant effect on purchasing decisions and to mediate the influence of product quality on purchasing decisions. This mediation is partial, meaning that product quality influences purchasing decisions not only directly but also indirectly through the enhancement of brand image. The practical implications of this study emphasize the importance for Viva Cosmetics to continuously improve product quality, including formulation and packaging, while strengthening brand communication strategies to ensure consistent positive consumer perceptions. Furthermore, the company should reassess its pricing and product innovation strategies to remain competitive in the dynamic cosmetics market. By focusing on product quality and brand image, Viva is expected to increase consumer appeal and loyalty, particularly within the university student market segment.

Abstract

Masalah stunting masih menjadi tantangan utama dalam bidang kesehatan masyarakat di Indonesia, termasuk di Desa Sepakung. Kondisi ini umumnya disebabkan oleh kekurangan gizi jangka panjang yang berdampak pada pertumbuhan anak. Salah satu solusi preventif yang dapat diterapkan adalah pemanfaatan sumber daya lokal sebagai bahan pangan bergizi, seperti daun kelor dan buah-buahan yang kaya zat gizi. Sayangnya, pemahaman masyarakat tentang nilai gizi tanaman lokal serta keterampilan budidaya dan pengelolaan ekonomi keluarga masih terbatas. Untuk menjawab tantangan tersebut, tim pengabdian dari Universitas PGRI Semarang melaksanakan program bertema “Pencegahan Stunting melalui Pembudidayaan Tanaman Buah dan Daun Kelor di Desa Sepakung.” Program ini menggabungkan pendekatan edukatif dan partisipatif, meliputi pendampingan teknis budidaya tanaman gizi, penyuluhan gizi keluarga, serta pelatihan pengelolaan keuangan rumah tangga. Kegiatan dilaksanakan dalam tiga tahap utama: pendampingan budidaya, pelatihan ekonomi keluarga, dan evaluasi keberlanjutan. Hasil program menunjukkan peningkatan pengetahuan dan keterampilan masyarakat dalam pengelolaan pekarangan, peningkatan kesadaran gizi, serta munculnya potensi ekonomi dari hasil olahan. Program ini berpotensi menjadi model pemberdayaan masyarakat dalam pencegahan stunting secara holistik dan berkesinambungan.

Abstract

This study aims to examine the influence of brand image and brand trust on customer loyalty, with customer satisfaction as a mediating variable in the context of AQUA bottled water. The decline in customer loyalty has been driven by external factors such as boycott campaigns and concerns over the safety of gallon packaging. A quantitative approach was employed using explanatory research methods. Data were collected through questionnaires distributed to 96 AQUA consumers in Semarang. The analysis was conducted using Partial Least Square–Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM). The results reveal that brand image and brand trust positively affect both customer satisfaction and loyalty. Furthermore, customer satisfaction mediates the relationship between brand image and brand trust on customer loyalty. These findings highlight the importance of strengthening brand image and trust to maintain customer loyalty amid public health and social issues. From a practical side, this understanding is important for companies to formulate adaptive marketing strategies in the midst of complex social pressures. From a scientific side, this study fills the gap regarding consumer loyalty in the context of social pressure and ideological values.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the influence of promotion and product quality on purchasing decisions for Wardah lipstick products with brand image as an intervening variable. This study is motivated by the decline in Wardah lipstick sales in the last five years even though demand for cosmetic products, especially lipstick, continues to increase. The research method used is a qualitative approach with a survey method. The sample of this study was 100 respondents who are Wardah lipstick users in Semarang City, selected using a purposive sampling technique. The data analysis technique used Partial Least Square (PLS) with the help of SmartPls 4.0 software. The results of the study indicate that promotion has a significant negative effect on purchasing decisions, while product quality has a significant positive effect on purchasing decisions. Brand image is also proven to have a significant positive effect on purchasing decisions and is able to mediate the influence of promotion and product quality on purchasing decisions. These findings confirm that Wardah's promotional strategy needs to be evaluated, while improving product quality and strengthening brand image remain key in influencing consumer purchasing decisions.
