Abstract

This study explores the relationship between social media marketing activities (SMMA), brand love, and purchase decisions in Indonesia’s transportation sector, focusing on PO Bejeu. Social media acts as an interactive medium fostering emotional bonds between brands and consumers, termed brand love. The research reveals that SMMA significantly enhances brand love, which directly impacts purchase decisions. Additionally, social ties mediate this relationship, as interactions on social media strengthen loyalty and influence purchasing behavior. A survey of 103 Facebook community members who actively discuss Bejeu products was conducted, with data analyzed using the SEM-PLS method, confirming the validity and reliability of all variables. Results indicate full mediation between SMMA and purchase decisions via brand love and partial mediation through social ties. These findings underscore the strategic role of SMMA in cultivating emotional connections to boost loyalty and purchases. The study suggests further research into brand love dynamics across diverse cultural and industrial settings to expand understanding.

Abstract

Despite the growing need for museums to attract and retain visitors, there's a gap in understanding what truly drives visitor recommendations. This research aimed to investigate the influence of educational, esthetic, tour guide performance, and authenticity on recommendation intention, mediated by visitor attitude, within the context of the Raja Ali Haji Museum in Batam. This study uses cognitive appraisal theory as the underpinning theory. Data were collected from 120 visitors using a cross-sectional research design. Data analysis was conducted using Smart-PLS 3.0, encompassing assessments of outer model measurements, including convergent validity, discriminant validity, and composite reliability. The hypothesis test results indicate that educational, tour guide performance, and authenticity indirectly influence recommendation intention through visitor attitude, while esthetic appeal directly influences recommendation intention. These findings highlight the critical role of visitor attitude as a mediator for several key museum attributes, underscoring the nuanced pathways to fostering visitor recommendations. This research contributes to marketing science by introducing authenticity as an exogenous variable to the existing conceptual model and by adding novel hypotheses regarding visitor attitude influenced by tour guide performance, and recommendation intention influenced by educational, esthetic, tour guide performance, and authenticity.

Abstract

The era of Globalization 5.0 drives technological innovation across various sectors, including financial services, with the emergence of Financial Technology (FinTech). Peer-to-peer lending (P2P Lending), one of the FinTech products, has become a popular alternative for financing in Indonesia. This study aims to analyze the growth of P2P Lending users, credit performance by region, and the causes of credit defaults. A quantitative descriptive method is employed with a population of 98 P2P Lending platforms registered with the Financial Services Authority (OJK) as of July 2024. Data are analyzed using growth ratio and Non-Performing Loan (NPL) ratio, with findings categorized across six archipelagic regions in Indonesia. The results indicate significant growth in the number of P2P Lending users, particularly in Java. However, this growth raises a high risk of credit defaults, mainly due to the use of loans for consumptive purposes. This study underscores the importance of public financial literacy in managing credit risks to optimize the sustainable benefits of P2P Lending.

Abstract

This study examines the relationship between financial success in the Indonesian banking sector, corporate social responsibility (CSR), and corporate characteristics (gender diversity, board size, and firm age). While extensive research has explored the direct impact of CSR on financial performance, fewer studies have examined the effects of corporate characteristics with financial performance, especially in Indonesia. Financial and corporate characteristic data were taken from 13 Indonesian bank’s annual and sustainability reports from 2019 to 2023. Using multiple regression analysis, this study discovered a positive correlation between gender diversity with ROE and firm age with ROA. In contrast, board size and CSR funds have no positive effect on both ROA and ROE.

Abstract

This study aims to examine the influence of perceived value comprising functional value, epistemic value, social value, economic value on behavioural intention with customer engagement and customer satisfaction serving as mediating variables in the context of Sanding Waterboom a tourist destination in Bandung Regency. Expectation Confirmation Theory (ECT) is employed as the underpinning theory within the scope of artificial tourism. The study involved 140 respondents who had previously visited Sanding Waterboom. Data were collected using a cross-sectional approach and the research instruments underwent rigorous validity and reliability testing. The data were analysed using Structural Equation Modeling with SmartPLS software version 3.0. All proposed hypotheses were empirically supported. The findings indicate that perceived value exerts a positive influence on behavioral intention through customer engagement and customer satisfaction. This study makes a significant contribution to marketing literature by introducing epistemic value as a key antecedent of customer engagement. The novelty of this study lies in the addition of a hypothesis establishing a relationship between epistemic value and customer engagement. Future research is encouraged to explore other variables such as conditional value as potential drivers of behavioral intention particularly by aligning these variables with the unique attributes of the objects under investigation.
