Internal and external conditions present opportunities for PT AA to expand its business.Purpose: The research objectives are (1) to analyze internal and external factors affecting the company and (2) to formulate strategies to develop the company. Design/methodology/approach: Data types included primary and secondary sources, with methods like Valuable, Rare, Inimitable, Organized (VRIO) for evaluating competitive advantages, PESTEL for understanding external factors, and Strength, Weakness, Opportunity, Threat (SWOT) for strategy formulation.Findings/results: The study revealed that most of PT AA's internal competencies and resources resulted in competitive parity, indicating a lack of significant advantages in its business operations.

Abstract

Background: The increase in waste in the beauty industry has prompted consumers to consider environmental issues when shopping, evidenced by the rise in individuals willing to pay more for green products. Meanwhile, manufacturers respond to this through green marketing strategies aligned with the Triple Bottom Line (3P) framework. Purpose: This study aims to analyze the characteristics of consumers who purchase Avoskin products and analyze the influence of green knowledge and green marketing mix on purchasing decisions on Avoskin products. Design/methodology/approach: This research was conducted in June 2023 through online questionnaires which were distributed through social media to 201 Avoskin beauty product users, this number of respondents has been in accordance with the 10-Times Rule theory. The data were processed using descriptive analysis and SEM PLS in the SmartPLS 3 application. Findings/results: The results showed that green knowledge, green products, green prices, green places, and green promotions have a positive effect on consumer purchasing decisions, but only green promotions have a significant impact. Most consumers recognize Avoskin through green promotions that have been carried out, such as introducing environmentally friendly concepts and green lifestyles. Conclusion: The study found that the green marketing mix positively influences purchasing decisions, with green promotions having the most significant impact among Avoskin consumers. However, while green knowledge also has a positive effect, it does not significantly moderate the relationship between green marketing and purchasing decisions. These findings suggest that targeted green marketing strategies, particularly those focused on promotions, are essential for enhancing consumer engagement and driving sustainable purchasing behavior in the beauty industry.Originality/value (State of the art): This study breaks new ground by pinpointing the pivotal role of green promotions in shaping consumer buying decisions in Indonesia's beauty sector, an area less explored in existing research. It provides fresh insights into the influence of green marketing elements on eco-conscious youth, offering a nuanced perspective that previous studies have overlooked. By emphasizing the strategic importance of promotions, this research significantly advances the discourse on effective green marketing strategies.

Abstract

Background: Salted fish have been preserved by salting and are very well known to the Indonesian people. Apart from being affordable, salted fish is also easy to obtain. Salted fish production is generally in coastal areas and distributed to distant places. Therefore, it is urgent to analyze the distribution process and the efficiency of that process.Purpose: This research aims to determine marketing channels and analyze the margin and marketing efficiency of salted fish produced in Parigi Hamlet, North Seram District, Maluku Regency.Design/methodology/approach: The primary research method used is the descriptive method, where sampling is carried out using exhausting sampling and snowball sampling. The data was analysed by using descriptive qualitative and descriptive quantitative.Findings/Results: The distribution of salted fish products produced in Parigi Hamlet consists of three channels, namely (1) processor – consumer, (2) processor – retailer – consumer, and (3) processor – collector – retailer – consumer. The marketing margin on channel-1 is Rp 0,- channel-2 is Rp 20,000,- and channel-3 is Rp 30,000.- Marketing channel-1 has an efficiency value of 0.07%, marketing channel-3 is 2.46%, and channel-2 is 2.52%.Conclusions: All three marketing chains are efficient, but the most efficient is channel 1 because there are no intermediary institutions, and the costs incurred are lower than others.Oiginality/value (State of the art): Even though marketing channel-1 is the most efficient, the number of products sold is small. Processors prefer marketing channel-3 because collectors usually buy in large quantities. Keywords: salted fish, marketing margin, efficiency.

Abstract

Background: Over the last five years, transactions and warehouse receipt utilization have shown a significant decline. In 2023, there was a recorded growth of -30% in warehouse receipt financing, while the growth in warehouse receipt issuance was -25.15%. This condition indicates that Indonesia's warehouse receipt system management is not optimal. Purpose: This study aimed to provide an overview of Indonesia's warehouse receipt system (WRS) by analyzing issues that hindered its development and formulating solutions to tackle those issues.Design/methodology/approach: This research employed a systematic literature review (SLR) approach. Scopus and Sinta indexed journals were used, from which we selected 33 of 378 previous studies. We divided the findings of this study into internal and external problems and solutions.Finding/Result: The findings of this study were divided into internal and external problems and solutions. Internal issues included farmers not meeting the minimum deposit requirements, lack of awareness of the WRS, limited access to WRS, and competitive costs. Meanwhile, external problems included a distant warehouse location from the production site, inadequate facilities, poor management quality, limited availability of warehouses that met standards, and government support. Internal solutions included establishing a cooperative body, increasing production output through smart farming, providing access to financial capital, education, and socialization of WRS, and government subsidies to reduce operational costs. Meanwhile, external solutions consisted of building a warehouse near the production site, repairing facilities, training for warehouse management, coordinating with financial institutions, and accelerating policies on developing WRS in Indonesia.Conclusion: The most frequently discussed problem was that farmers had to bear costs such as rental fees, transportation fees, processing fees, and insurance fees. To strengthen farmer groups, the government needed to provide farmers with bailout funds and capital assistance. Stakeholders could use the study's findings to formulate policy recommendations to aid in the development of WRS. We anticipated that WRS development would benefit Indonesia's economic development, particularly the agricultural sector.Originality/value (State of the art): Based on the researcher's observations, no WRS analysis has been found using the SLR approach. This method was chosen because it is considered appropriate for reviewing literature that has been conducted in the context of WRS. Keywords: literature review, agricultural economics, warehouse receipt system, problem, solution

Cultivating a proactive and inventive mindset through personalized mentoring and encouraging the pursuit of new opportunities are crucial. Furthermore, enhancing adaptability by facilitating exposure to larger business ecosystems through company visits enables SMEs to remain agile and informed. Finally, strengthening digital marketing skills and ensuring product quality are paramount for successful implementation of growth strategies. These findings underscore the importance of a targeted yet diverse approach to empower SMEs, aligning perfectly with the overarching goal of bolstering their performance and ensuring their sustained success.Originality/value (State of the art): While existing literature acknowledges the importance of various factors in SME success, this research provides a novel contribution by: Utilizing AHP: This robust methodology allows for a structured and quantifiable prioritization of factors influencing SME performance, moving beyond descriptive analyses. Expert-Informed Insights: By incorporating the expertise of five field specialists, the study ensures practical relevance and nuanced understanding of the SME landscape.
