Abstract

This research aims to analyze how the concepts of price and service quality are applied at PT. Lion Super Indo supermarket in Palembang City from an Islamic economic perspective. Through a qualitative approach that includes literature studies, field observations, and interviews with consumers, this study found that the strategies implemented by Super Indo are often perceived as unfair by consumers, particularly concerning non-transparent discounts. On the other hand, the quality of service is rated as quite good, although not fully consistent in terms of friendliness, cleanliness, and information delivery. The analysis results show that the application of Islamic economic values such as justice, transparency, trustworthiness, and honesty needs to be strengthened so that businesses do not solely focus on profit but also reflect Islamic ethics. This research contributes to guiding modern business practices to be more ethical and in line with Sharia principles.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the digital marketing strategy implemented by the Instagram account @sahabat.petani, managed by PT Pupuk Indonesia (Persero), to increase its engagement rate as a key social media performance indicator. The research employs a descriptive qualitative approach with a case study method, using data obtained through interviews, observations, documentation, and literature review. The strategic analysis is conducted using the SOSTAC framework, which includes Situation, Objectives, Strategy, Tactics, Action, and Control. The findings indicate that the account’s engagement rate is still low, at 0.63%, which is below the industry average. Several contributing factors include the absence of a dedicated social media team, inconsistent content uploads, limited interaction with followers, restricted digital marketing budget, and technical barriers due to location differences between the content team and sources. The proposed strategy involves consistent content scheduling, collaboration with agricultural influencers, and targeted educational campaigns. As a result, the engagement rate improved to 4.17% in May 2025. Based on SWOT analysis and the IE Matrix, the recommended strategy is a growth strategy using the SO (Strength–Opportunity) approach—leveraging internal strengths to seize external opportunities. This strategy has proven effective in increasing the engagement rate and enhancing audience interaction on the @sahabat.petani Instagram account.

Strategi yang dirumuskan meliputi penjadwalan konten secara konsisten, kolaborasi dengan influencer, dan kampanye edukatif. Hasilnya, engagement rate meningkat menjadi 4,17% pada bulan mei 2025.

Abstract

The development of digital technologies and social media has changed the way fish farmers access information and purchase valuable fish health products. However, there is no research on marketing to the fish farming community. With the spread of the internet in Indonesia, key opinion leaders (KOLs) have become an important marketing strategy to effectively reach the fishing community. The aim of this study is to analyze the influence of KOLs on fish farmers’ decisions to purchase health products in Sumatra and Java. It examines three broad dimensions of KOLs (relevance, scope, and value of involvement) and four dimensions of purchase decisions (product selection, brand, location, and payment method). A quantitative survey was conducted among 76 fish farmers in Sumatra and Java Island. The survey instrument showed good validity and reliability (Cronbach’s alpha > 0.9) and multiple regression analysis showed that KOLs significantly influenced purchase decisions (R = 0.853, R2 = 0.727). The dimensions of Reach and Rate of Engagement had the largest and most significant impact on purchasing behavior. This strategy is strongly recommended as a viable approach to increase the effectiveness of sustainable fish product promotion in the Indonesian fish farming industry.

Abstract

In today’s digital era, online customer reviews and celebrity endorsements significantly influence consumer decisions, especially regarding repurchase intentions. This study explores their roles in shaping Tupperware customers repurchase intentions in Indonesia, addressing the limited empirical research on this topic. A Non-Probability Purposive Sampling method was used to survey 200 Tupperware users. Data were analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) with SmartPLS 4 software. Out of nine tested hypotheses, eight were accepted, and one was rejected. The results demonstrate that online customer reviews have a significant positive impact on repurchase intention, underscoring their critical role in influencing consumer behavior. Customers are increasingly reliant on digital feedback, which plays a more pivotal role than traditional marketing in driving loyalty. These findings offer valuable insights into Tupperware’s management. By strategically leveraging online reviews and celebrity endorsements, they can optimize promotional campaigns, strengthen customer engagement, and boost brand loyalty in Indonesia’s competitive market. This research emphasizes the importance of integrating digital feedback and influential figures into marketing strategies to enhance repurchase intention, contributing to the broader understanding of consumer behavior in the context of modern marketing.
