Abstract

In today's digital era, almost all activities can be carried out using the internet, making information access easier. This study aims to review and analyze existing problems to determine the extent of the influence of service quality, promotions, and product prices in the marketplace on consumers' purchasing decisions, with brand image acting as a mediating variable. The research subjects are students from eight study programs at the Faculty of Economics and Business, Makassar State University, from the 2021 and 2022 intakes, with a sample size of 348 respondents. Data analysis was conducted using the Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Model (PLS-SEM). Based on the problem formulation, the study results show that service quality, promotions, product prices, and brand image have a positive and significant influence on consumers' purchasing decisions. Additionally, brand image effectively mediates the relationship between these three variables and consumers' purchasing decisions.

Abstract

Indonesia is one of the largest seaweed-producing countries in the world; however, the limited availability of Porphyra species hinders local nori production. The innovation of developing nori based on moringa leaves (Moringa oleifera) presents a promising alternative, considering moringa's high nutritional content, including protein, fiber, vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants that contribute to immune system enhancement. This activity represents a novel innovation in the development of functional food products by utilizing fresh moringa leaves as the main ingredient. The process begins with drying the moringa leaves using a low-temperature dehydrator to preserve their nutritional value. Next, the dried leaves are ground into a fine powder using a high-speed blender. This powder is then mixed with tapioca flour, egg white, and a pinch of salt using a horizontal dough mixer until a homogeneous mixture is formed. The mixture is flattened using a manual stainless steel nori sheet press and then dried again in a low-temperature air-circulating oven to produce thin, dry moringa nori sheets. Through this process, a product that has never been developed before—moringa-based nori—is created, characterized by a crispy texture, natural savory taste, and high nutritional value. This activity not only introduces a new method of moringa leaf processing but also opens opportunities for innovation using simple tools that can be replicated by local communities.
