Abstract

As the trend of home renovations increases during the Covid-19 pandemic, a global demand for wood products has declined significantly, mainly due to rising prices. This situation poses a major challenge for wood processing companies, such as PT. Tanahmas Kencana Abadi, which are maintaining its competitive advantage in the middle of increasingly fierce competition and declining consumer purchasing power. Therefore, evaluating customer satisfaction and loyalty is crucial. This study analyzes the factors that influence customer satisfaction and loyalty, focusing on product quality and price. The study population consisted of 50 B2B plywood companies, both domestic and international, selected using a saturated sampling technique. The data collected were analyzed through Smart-PLS, using a Structural Equation Modeling approach focusing on path coefficients and t-tests. The study findings reveal that the environmentally friendly aspect is the most influential factor in the correlation between product quality and customer satisfaction. In addition, customer satisfaction affects customer loyalty and moderates the correlation between product quality and loyalty. In contrast, price does not significantly affect customer satisfaction or loyalty. Based on these findings, companies are advised to improve the certification and marketing communications related to environmentally friendly products to strengthen and enhance their competitive advantage.

Abstract

Over the past decade, RCTI's live television viewership has tended to decline although it experienced an increase, particularly during the Covid-19 pandemic. This decline in traditional media viewership is particularly pronounced in entertainment programs and news broadcasting. Programs that were once exclusively accessible through traditional media can now be accessed on various digital platforms. This study aims to analyze whether consumer preferences, especially those of Generation Z, who are highly connected to technology, have shifted from watching RCTI television to using digital platforms. Based on conjoint analysis, the results show that 96 respondents from Generation Z in Jabodetabek still prefer to watch entertainment, sports, and news programs broadcast during fixed hours. This finding suggests that RCTI should focus on maintaining consistent broadcast schedules and continue innovating in content production to remain competitive in the increasingly crowded broadcasting industry.

Abstract

Leadership approaches in public sector organizations face distinct challenges in promoting work‒life balance and performance while maintaining employee engagement. Authentic leadership has emerged as a promising framework for addressing these challenges; however, limited research has examined its effectiveness within Indonesian government institutions. This study examines the influence of authentic leadership on work‒life balance and employee performance, with employee engagement as a mediating variable at the Department of Communication and Information Technology (Diskominfo) in Banjarbaru city, Indonesia. Using a quantitative approach with a causal design, this study surveyed 64 employees through a saturation sampling method. The data were analyzed via structural equation modeling-partial least squares (SEM‒PLS) to evaluate both direct and indirect relationships among the variables. Authentic leadership positively influenced work‒life balance (β=0.618, t=5.934, p<0.001) and employee performance (β=0.683, t=9.439, p<0.001). Employee engagement mediated the relationships between authentic leadership and work-life balance (β=0.656, t=6.112, p<0.001) and between authentic leadership and employee performance (β=0.632, t=4.682, p<0.001). The indirect effects of employee engagement (0.454 for work‒life balance; 0.471 for performance) were stronger than the direct effects (0.147 for work‒life balance; 0.229 for performance), confirming the partial mediating role of employee engagement. Authentic leadership significantly enhances work‒life balance and employee performance in public sector organizations, primarily by strengthening employee engagement. Government institutions should prioritize the development of authentic leadership capabilities and the implementation of policies that support employee engagement to optimize both organizational performance and employee well-being.

Abstract

The rapid advancement of digital transformation has led to innovations in the financial sector, one of which is the paylater service. This service has significantly influenced financial behavior, particularly among millennials in Indonesia. Paylater allows consumers to make purchases immediately and defer payments with flexible terms, making it increasingly popular due to its accessibility. The growing adoption of this service reflects a consumerist trend that may contribute to increased debt, especially in urban areas. This study aims to examine the influence of financial literacy, digital literacy, self-control, lifestyle, and financial behavior on consumer behavior in using paylater services among millennials in Bogor City. A quantitative approach was employed, involving a sample of 280 respondents from diverse age groups, occupations, and educational backgrounds. Data were collected through questionnaires and analyzed using the SEM-PLS technique with SmartPLS. The findings indicate that financial literacy, lifestyle, self-control, and financial behavior have a significant positive impact on consumer behavior, whereas digital literacy does not show a significant influence. This study provides important implications for paylater service providers, the government, and society to enhance financial literacy and self-control, promote responsible lifestyle and financial behaviors, and encourage the wise use of paylater services.

Abstract

This study investigates the influence of social media marketing, including advertisements, influencer endorsements, and user-generated content, on consumer preferences and purchasing behavior for cold drinks in Nepal. Using a descriptive research design with purposive sampling (N=384), the study collected data through structured questionnaires targeting active social media users aged 18-35. Descriptive analysis revealed that social media advertisements had the highest perceived impact (Mean=38.98), followed by influencer marketing (Mean=27.09). However, correlation and regression analyses painted a different picture: while a weak but significant link existed between influencers and user-generated content (r=.134, p<.01), none of the social media variables significantly predicted actual consumer preferences (p>.05, R²=.005). The findings suggest a notable disconnect between perceived and real influence, implying that factors like price, taste, and convenience may outweigh digital marketing effects in Nepal’s cold drink market. The study challenges the assumed dominance of social media in shaping consumer behavior, particularly in emerging markets, and calls for more nuanced, locally tailored marketing strategies. Future research should incorporate behavioral tracking, cross-platform comparisons, and longitudinal designs to better understand the gap between online engagement and actual purchasing decisions. These insights are critical for marketers aiming to optimize digital campaigns in price-sensitive, culturally distinct markets like Nepal.

Abstract

This study examines the influence of brand image, content marketing, influencer marketing, and customer reviews on impulsive buying behavior in the context of New Balance footwear in Indonesia. The research aims to understand the interplay of these factors and their impact on spontaneous purchasing decisions. Data were collected from respondents through surveys, focusing on demographic attributes, consumer preferences, and purchasing behavior. The analysis utilized a structured model to evaluate the relationships between variables and their influence on impulsive buying. The findings reveal that while relevant to consumer perceptions, brand image and content marketing do not significantly drive impulsive purchases. Conversely, influencer marketing demonstrates a substantial positive impact, emphasizing its role in creating emotional connections and triggering spontaneous buying. Customer reviews, however, show limited moderating influence on the relationships between the studied variables and impulsive buying behavior. The study concludes that emotionally driven strategies, such as leveraging credible influencers and situational promotions, are more effective in fostering impulsive purchases than traditional approaches. It highlights the need for creative and dynamic marketing tactics to align with evolving consumer behavior. This research contributes to understanding consumer behavior in the digital marketing landscape. It offers actionable insights for businesses to optimize strategies and enhance customer engagement, ensuring sustainable success in competitive markets.

Abstract

This study analyzes the influence of financial ratios and cash flows on financial distress conditions in retail companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) during the 2020–2024 period. The independent variables tested included Current Ratio (CR), Debt to Equity Ratio (DER), Return on Assets (ROA), and Cash Flow from Operations (CF), with Financial Distress (FD) measured using the Altman Z-Score. The method used is multiple linear regression. The research uses a quantitative approach with secondary data from the financial statements of retail companies listed on the IDX during 2020–2024. The sample was selected by purposive sampling based on the criterion of declining profits for two consecutive years. Financial distress is measured with the Altman Z-Score. Data analysis uses multiple linear regression to test the influence of independent variables on financial distress. Multicollinearity, normality, and heteroscedasticity tests were performed to ensure the validity of the model. The results showed that CR, DER and CF had no significant effect on FD, only ROA had an effect on FD. These findings confirm the importance of managing financial ratios, especially on asset ratios, to reduce the risk of financial distress, which is a reference for managers and investors in financial decision-making.

Abstract

This study examines the influence of liquidity, leverage, and profitability on financial distress at PT. Jamu Nyonya Meneer, a traditional herbal medicine company in Indonesia. Using a quantitative descriptive research approach, the study analyzes secondary data from the company's financial statements through multiple regression analysis, hypothesis testing, and correlation analysis. The research focuses on three key financial ratios: Current Ratio for liquidity measurement, Debt to Equity Ratio (DER) for leverage assessment, and Return on Assets (ROA) for profitability evaluation. The findings reveal that liquidity, leverage, and profitability have significant positive effects on financial distress, with the regression equation Y = 23.491 + 0.457X₁ + 0.482X₂ + 0.372X₃. The F-test results (Sig. = 0.02 < 0.05) confirm that all independent variables jointly influence financial distress, while individual t-test results show significant partial effects for Liquidity (Sig. = 0.000), Leverage (Sig. = 0.001), and Profitability (Sig. = 0.000). The coefficient of determination (R²) indicates that 61.5% of financial distress variation is explained by these three variables, while 38.5% is influenced by other factors. Contrary to conventional expectations, higher liquidity and profitability increase financial distress risk, suggesting complex operational dynamics in the herbal medicine industry. The study contributes to financial distress prediction literature and provides practical insights for herbal medicine companies' financial management strategies.
