<![CDATA[This study aims to analyze the marketing feasibility and application of the marketing mix (4P: product, price, place, and promotion) in the operation of Toserba 35 Hidayah, a local retail enterprise in Lima Puluh Kota, West Sumatra. Using a qualitative descriptive approach, data were collected through in-depth interviews, direct observation, and document review to assess the firm’s competitive position and market strategy. The findings indicate that the business demonstrates strong marketing feasibility supported by product diversity, strategic location, competitive pricing, and customer-oriented service. However, the promotional strategy remains traditional, relying primarily on word-of-mouth, indicating the need for digital marketing adoption to expand market reach.

Theoretically, this research reinforces the role of the marketing mix as a determinant of micro-enterprise performance and highlights the importance of adaptive marketing innovation in the Indonesian retail sector.]]>
