This study analyzes the effect of religious brand community support (RBCS) in strengthening customer ethical perceptions (CEP) to establish trust and readiness for religious value co-creation. 212 Islamic clothing brand community members were the respondents in this study. They are involved in the purchasing interaction through online media, both consumer to consumer and consumer to the online shop owner. SEM was used to analyze and examine the empirical model. This study found that the role of RBCS in forming ethical perceptions regarding online shops can provide a sense of security, keep promises, and provide good service recovery. All of these impacts strengthen trust both with brands and online shop owners. Strengthening ethical perceptions and trust will increase consumer interest in the interaction of knowledge, experience, and religious belief that online shops can sell clothing products that are in accordance with religious law. The results of this study are beneficial for online shops that offer religious products, especially Islamic clothing, to manage a religio-centric market and strengthen a virtual community based on religious beliefs that are the same as the product value. This will strengthen the virtual halal ecosystem and provide a virtual da’wah space for religio-centric consumers who base all their activities on worship according to their religious values.

The internet’s ascent has transformed digital marketing, with social media platforms like Instagram becoming essential tools. The “Instagrammable” trend has gained traction in the food industry, using visual appeal to drive business success and expand markets. This research investigates the factors influencing Instagram’s popularity metrics in the food sector, focusing on South Sumatra. A survey of 250 Instagram users was conducted using accidental sampling. The study assessed various factors on a Likert scale from 1 (strongly disagree) to 7 (strongly agree). The findings revealed that brand cue positively impacts selling strategy and information search. Additionally, message appeal positively influences selling strategy and information search but negatively correlates with the popularity of social media messages, suggesting that specific appeals might hinder social media popularity. Conversely, selling strategy and information search positively affect the popularity of social media messages, highlighting the importance of engaging consumers and providing informative content for brand popularity on social platforms. While brand cues do not directly influence the popularity of social media messages, message appeal and brand cues are crucial in shaping consumer interactions on social media. These results offer practical insights into utilizing brand cues and message appeal to cultivate consumer relationships, differentiate brands, and influence purchasing behavior through social media. The study provides valuable guidance for businesses navigating the complex world of social media marketing, emphasizing the importance of tailored messaging and brand presence in driving consumer engagement and brand perception within the competitive food industry.

An entrepreneurial network is one of the most prominent strategic resources for business. Even though micro, small, and medium-sized enterprises (MSMEs) face several challenges arising from their liability of smallness, they can leverage the advantages of having strong network ties. This study aims to examine how social capital derived from entrepreneurial networks (both formal and informal) can encourage collaborative marketing innovation and speed-to-market to enhance marketing performance. A total of 161 MSME owners from various industries participated in a field survey that was conducted using self-administered questionnaires. Data is analyzed using Structural Equation Modelling with AMOS software. The Resource Advantage Theory of Competition (RAToC) emphasizes the dynamic nature of competition in provoking disequilibrium through collaboration with other organizations. The result shows that collaboration helps companies in integrating resources in the marketing innovation process such as obtaining input for product development and supporting product promotion. The study also indicates that collaborative marketing innovation has become the most salient variable that accelerates time-to-market and enhances MSME performance.

This study investigates the relationship between emotional and spiritual intelligence from an Islamic perspective, with creativity and proactive attitude as mediating variables. The research utilized a survey among students at several private Islamic universities in Medan City. These universities were selected due to their Islamic vision and the presence of central business incubators or entrepreneurship centers. Students who carried out entrepreneurial activities from semester 3 to semester 7, totaling 120 people, were selected as sample size sufficiently representative of the population using a simple random sampling method. Data analysis was performed using Structural Equation Modelling (SEM) from the statistical software package LISREL 8.80. The results showed that all the hypotheses tested in this study were supported, meaning that the Islamic perspective on emotional and spiritual intelligence was proven to encourage entrepreneurial intentions at Islamic universities in Medan City with creativity and proactive attitude as a serial mediator. Creativity and proactive attitudes mediate the relationship between emotional and spiritual intelligence towards entrepreneurial intention. Creativity and proactive attitudes reinforce the relationship between emotional and spiritual intelligence toward entrepreneurial intention. The better the creativity and proactive attitudes of the respondents, the stronger the relationship between emotional and spiritual intelligence towards entrepreneurial intention.

This study aims to investigate the role of green human resource management (GHRM) on innovative work behavior in helping organizations to implement environmentally friendly business practices. By using natural resource-based view and social exchange theory as theoretical lens, we consider the role of green HRM, perceived organizational support for the environment, green knowledge sharing, and green commitment as antecedents of innovative work behavior. The sample is 215 employees from the MSME’s manufacturing industrial sector in West Java province selected using purposive sampling, then the data was analyzed using structural equation models (SEM-PLS). The research results show that GHRM practices have a positive and significant influence on green commitment, green knowledge sharing, and innovative work behavior. Apart from that, the moderating role of green knowledge sharing is found to strengthen the relationship between green human resource management and green commitment. The mediating role of green commitment in the relationship between GHRM and employee innovative work behavior is also confirmed. This study also found that organizational support indirectly influences green commitment. The findings of this study provide contribution to the literature, especially in the field of organizational behavior by emphasizing the role of GHRM practice to stimulate innovative work behavior of employees. It also provides practical implications for organizations to adopt environmentally friendly business practices as an effort to improve their positive outcomes of the employees.

This research aims to investigate how business performance (BP) and innovation culture (IC) mediate the relationship between knowledge sharing (KS) and sustainable competitive advantage (SCA) of MSMEs operating in Yogyakarta, Indonesia. The survey method was employed to gather the necessary data for this research. The population and sample consisted of 50 MSMEs. The unit of analysis in this study is the MSMEs fashionpreneur Jogja Fashion Dunia Incubation Program, which is represented by the owner and manager, who also serves as the respondent. The analysis method employed in this research is Partial Least Squares (PLS) using SmatPLS 4 software. The investigation results demonstrate that knowledge sharing has a significant impact on both the innovation culture and long-term competitive advantage. Additionally, the study reveals that the innovation culture significantly influences business performance and lasting competitive advantage. However, it is worth noting that business performance does not have a noticeable effect on sustainable competitive advantage. Furthermore, the study indicates that the relationship between knowledge sharing and sustainable competitive advantage is mediated by the innovation culture. On the other hand, when business performance acts as a mediator, the effect of the innovation culture and knowledge sharing on competitive advantage is indiscernible. To create exceptional customer value, policymakers and MSME management must showcase a firm dedication to innovation and connect it to supply chain agility, also known as SCA. Ultimately, this will result in comprehensive and enduring business performance.

This paper investigates the phenomenon and factors that influence quiet quitting behavior that is happening in millennial and Z generation workers. Quiet quitting is employee behavior that chooses to work moderately according to the tasks that have been given. Several previous research results found that this behavior can be anticipated by increasing job satisfaction which is influenced by empowering leadership, organizational culture, and work overload. This research was designed with a survey method and using a quantitative approach. Data collection in this study used online questionnaires distributed to workers in the age range of millennial and Z generations. The data analysis technique used in this research is Structural Equation Modelling (SEM) with AMOS software. The number of samples in this study was 600 respondents. The respondents are dominated by workers on the islands of Java and Sumatra and the rest are from other regions in Indonesia. The findings of this research highlight the negative effect of job satisfaction towards quiet quitting behavior in millennial and Z workers. Another result of this study is that there is a positive effect of empowering leadership and organizational culture on job satisfaction, while work overload have a negative effect on job satisfaction. The research results are useful information for planning strategies to retain employees and provide their best performance at work. These findings are significant to measure the factors that influence job satisfaction of millennial and generation Z employees so that they do not quiet quitting or leaving the company.

This study reviews and summarizes empirical findings on the determinants of local brand purchase intentions over the past five years. It aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of the literature for future researchers by using a systematic literature review approach to identify key influencing factors. A total of 34 empirical research articles from 2018 to 2022 were reviewed. The dominant theory applied was brand management, found in nine articles (26%), followed by social identity theory in four articles (11.8%), consumer behavior in three articles (8.9%), and country of origin in two articles (5.9%). Most studies focused on emerging or developing countries. The review identified six main theories used to explain local brand purchase intentions: brand management, consumer behavior, consumer culture positioning, country of origin, social identity, and the theory of reasoned action. The findings highlight a strong correlation between these theories and the likelihood of purchasing local brands, though results varied. Further research is needed to understand the complex interplay of these factors fully.

Adopting energy-efficient home appliances is one of the critical strategies for supporting environmental protection through reducing energy consumption. This study aims to identify factors contributing to consumers’ intentions to adopt energy-efficient household appliances (EEHA) in Indonesia, particularly in Java, a representative area of energy consumption in the country. Adopting the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) as the main theoretical framework, the study expands the model to include media publicity (MP) variables as external factors. The survey method was applied to 200 respondents, and the collected data were analyzed using the Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) technique through Smart-PLS 4. The results revealed that consumer attitudes (CA), perceived behavioral control (PBC), and subjective norms (SN) significantly affected consumers’ intentions in adopting EEHA. Furthermore, the study found that MP significantly influences CA. Likewise, as we expected, MP significantly affected PBC and SN, marking the first time this relationship has been identified in the context of the adoption of EEHA. Based on these findings, we discuss some of the implications for policymakers, marketers, and environmental practitioners in promoting the adoption of EEHA to accelerate the transition to more sustainable energy consumption in households.

The textile industry has been a critical driver of global economic growth in recent decades. However, this growth is inextricably linked to its environmental impact. The textile industry causes significant environmental issues, including water pollution from dyes, high water usage, and greenhouse gas emissions. Understanding these specific environmental issues highlights the need to explore solutions, such as using eco-friendly clothing. This study aims to identify the factors that influence generation Z consumers’ preferences for eco-friendly clothing products in Indonesia by adopting the theoretical framework of the Information-Motivation-Behavioural Skills (IMB) model. The IMB model was chosen for its comprehensive approach to explaining how information and motivation, combined with behavioral skills, drive consumer actions, making it suitable for analyzing sustainable purchasing behavior. 201 generation Z respondents in Indonesia completed the survey using consecutive sampling. The data was then analyzed using structural equation modeling (SEM). The results showed a positive and significant influence between green self-concept and subjective norm on the purchase intention of environmentally friendly clothing. However, green clothing knowledge’s effect on purchase intention was not statistically significant. Further results found that green clothing self-efficacy can mediate the influence of green self-concept and subjective norm on green clothing purchase intention. However, green self-efficacy has not been proven to mediate the effect of environmental apparel knowledge on purchase intention.
