This study in a structured qualitative using interviews, in depth interviews, and observation of entrepreneurs. The results of the study show that the use of digital marketing by business actors is carried out in different ways, namely Whatsapp and Facebook are used by Generation X for promotional purposes and for Generation Y using Tiktok, Shopee and Instagram by utilizing the live sale feature. The obstacles faced by each of these groups are different, but in general they are the same, namely towards their human resources.
