Abstract

The development of digital payment systems in Indonesia has significantly accelerated the adoption of digital wallets, with GoPay emerging as one of the leading players. Amid intense competition, social media content strategy has become crucial in driving consumer engagement, which subsequently influences word-of-mouth (WOM) and customer loyalty. This study aims to examine the effects of content appeal (infotainment, relational, and remunerative), content vividness, and content interactivity on WOM and customer loyalty, with consumer engagement serving as a mediating variable. A quantitative approach was employed through a survey of 230 active GoPay users who follow the official Instagram account @GoPayIndonesia and had interacted with its content in the past three months. The data were analyzed using Partial Least Squares - Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM). The results reveal that six out of seven proposed hypotheses are statistically significant. Infotainment content, remunerative content, content vividness, and content interactivity all positively influence consumer engagement. Among these, content vividness exerts the strongest effect on engagement. Conversely, relational content was not statistically significant, although it was descriptively appreciated by respondents. Furthermore, consumer engagement was found to be a significant mediator in the relationship between content characteristics and both WOM and customer loyalty. This research contributes empirical insights to the field of digital marketing literature and offers strategic recommendations for digital wallet brands to enhance the effectiveness of their social media content strategies.

Abstract

The purpose of this research is to determine the relationship between debt policy and tobacco excise tax rates with stock prices. Data sources were obtained from data published on the Indonesia Stock Exchange and company websites. This research uses multiple regression analysis tools. The research found that first, the debt policy variable has a positive effect on the stock price of tobacco company Gudang Garam (GGRM), while for Sampoerna Company, the debt decision contributes negatively to the stock price. Second, the excise tax rate variable has a negative impact on tobacco stock prices. Third, debt policy and excise tax rates simultaneously affect tobacco stock prices. The implications of these findings indicate that company managers must carefully design debt policies to create optimal capital structure, as the effects of debt decisions can vary between companies. Government policies related to excise tax rates have a direct impact on stock market performance in the tobacco industry, meaning that investors and stakeholders must consider regulatory dynamics as an important factor in investment decision-making. The results of this research provide evidence that excise tax rate adjustments not only affect state revenues but also affect the stability and valuation of companies related to the tobacco industry in the capital market.

Abstract

This study analyzes the influence of facilitating conditions and prices on the purchase intention of electric vehicles (EVs) in Indonesia by examining the mediating role of innovative behavior. Data from 362 respondents in six major cities were processed using PLS-SEM. The results show that facilitating conditions and prices directly and significantly influence buying intent, as well as influencing innovative behavior. Innovative behavior also has a significant effect on purchase intent. In the mediation test, innovative behaviors did not mediate the relationship between the facilitating conditions and the purchase intent. However, it significantly mediates the relationship between price and purchase intent. This indicates that prices influence buying intent indirectly through innovative behavior. The key implications are the need for a holistic marketing strategy that focuses on building a supporting ecosystem, as well as communicating long-term economic value to attract innovative consumers.

Abstract

The rapid growth of the beauty industry in Indonesia has emphasized the role of influencers in building emotional attachment that can influence consumers' purchase intention. This study examines the influence of influencer attributes—namely similarity, inspiration, authenticity, attractiveness, and fun personality—on the transfer of emotional attachment and purchase intention, both directly and through the mediation of emotional attachment and envy. This research offers novelty by comparing the effectiveness of micro-influencers and mega-influencers in the context of Indonesia's beauty industry and applies the Integrative Scale of Digital Influence framework to analyze both direct and indirect effects between variables. The data were collected through a survey of 421 respondents, consisting of 209 mega-influencer followers and 212 micro-influencer followers, and analyzed using PLS-SEM and multi-group analysis. The findings indicate that micro-influencers are more effective in fostering emotional closeness and encouraging purchase intention through perceived authenticity, while mega-influencers tend to influence purchase intention more directly through inspirational content. Feelings of envy did not show a significant impact on emotional attachment or purchase intention. These findings emphasize the importance of selecting influencers based on campaign objectives—micro-influencers for building loyalty, and mega-influencers for quickly reaching a broad audience.

Abstract

This study analyzes the effect of profitability, liquidity, and debt to equity ratio (DER) on firm value in the property and real estate sector listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) for the 2017-2021 period. The main problem identified is the decline in company value in this sector caused by the COVID-19 pandemic and low demand for property. This study aims to determine how much influence the three variables have on firm value. The method used is quantitative with a descriptive-associative approach, using secondary data from the financial statements of companies listed on the IDX and purposive sampling technique to select 9 issuers as samples. Data analysis was carried out through descriptive analysis, correlation test, and multiple regression analysis using SPSS. The results show that profitability has a significant positive effect on firm value, while liquidity has no significant effect. In contrast, DER has a significant negative effect on firm value. High profitability increases investor confidence in the company's prospects, while high DER decreases the value of the company due to increased financial risk. These results imply that companies in the property and real estate sector need to increase profitability and manage capital structure well to increase firm value.
