<![CDATA[This study investigates the relationship between Instagram marketing efforts and willingness to pay a premium price as mediated by trust and brand image in order to validate the theory with practical application, particularly in the restaurant industry. To test the proposed hypothesis, this study employs a quantitative approach with a causal research design. Data was gathered through a survey of 100 respondents via an online questionnaire, which was distributed to social media users in Indonesia who had visited a restaurant that was actively marketing on social media. In addition, a structural equation model was developed to analyze these research data.
