Abstract

The coffee shop industry in Medan City has experienced significant growth, but faces challenges in maintaining customer loyalty. This study analyzes the influence of customer experience and social media marketing on customer loyalty through customer satisfaction at Teraseduh Medan, a coffee shop that experienced a decrease in visits from 680 visitors per day (2022) to 420 visitors (2024). Using a quantitative method with PLS-SEM analysis on 135 respondents selected through purposive sampling, data were collected through a structured questionnaire. The results showed that customer experience had a positive and significant effect on customer satisfaction (β=0.441, p=0.000) and customer loyalty (β=0.324, p=0.000). Social media marketing has a positive and significant effect on customer satisfaction (β=0.513, p=0.000) and customer loyalty (β=0.201, p=0.036). Customer satisfaction was proven to mediate the relationship between customer experience (β=0.146, p=0.002) and social media marketing (β=0.170, p=0.002) on customer loyalty, and showed the strongest direct influence on customer loyalty (β=0.331, p=0.000), explaining the 40.6% variance in customer loyalty decisions. These findings confirm that digital marketing strategies should be prioritized through consistent and authentic quality improvement of customer experiences, as well as the utilization of interactive social media content to strengthen satisfaction and drive customer loyalty in the specialty coffee industry.

Abstract

The delivery service industry in Indonesia is experiencing increasingly fierce competition along with the growth of e-commerce. PT Pos Indonesia as a state-owned enterprise faces challenges in maintaining customer loyalty amid the dominance of private competitors such as J&T Express and JNE. This study aims to analyze the influence of service quality, brand image, and technology usage on customer loyalty with customer satisfaction as a mediating variable in PT. Pos Indonesia Medan Branch. Using a quantitative method with PLS-SEM analysis on 185 customer respondents selected through purposive sampling, data was collected through a structured questionnaire using Google Form. The results showed that service quality had a positive and significant effect on customer satisfaction (β=0.405, p=0.000) and customer loyalty (β=0.524, p=0.000). Brand image has a positive and significant effect on customer satisfaction (β=0.240, p=0.016) and customer loyalty (β=0.302, p=0.002). Technology usage had a positive and significant effect on customer satisfaction (β=0.504, p=0.000) and customer loyalty (β=0.294, p=0.008). Customer satisfaction was proven to have a positive and significant effect on customer loyalty (β=0.289, p=0.009). Customer satisfaction was able to mediate the influence of service quality (β=0.117, p=0.014), brand image (β=0.112, p=0.019), and technology usage (β=0.146, p=0.025) on customer loyalty. The research model explains 79% of variance in customer loyalty. These findings confirm the importance of a holistic marketing management strategy in the delivery service industry, especially in improving service quality, strengthening brand image, optimizing the use of digital technology, and building customer satisfaction to create long-term loyalty.

Abstract

Changes in the increasingly dynamic work environment have driven a transformation in performance management, where work life balance, workload, and compensation systems are important aspects in maintaining employee productivity. This study aims to analyze the influence of work life balance, workload, and compensation on employee performance with organizational commitment as a moderation variable in PT. Nusantara Plantation IV KSO Regional II Tanjung Garbus Plantation. Using a quantitative method with PLS-SEM analysis on 150 maintenance and harvest employee respondents selected through proportional random sampling, data were collected through a structured questionnaire. The results showed that work life balance had a positive and significant effect on employee performance (β=0.319, p=0.000), workload had a negative and significant effect on employee performance (β=-0.270, p=0.000), and compensation had a positive and significant effect on employee performance (β=0.536, p=0.000). Organizational commitment was proven to strengthen the influence of work life balance (β=0.184, p=0.011) and workload (β=0.149, p=0.009) on employee performance, but was unable to moderate the compensation relationship with employee performance (β=-0.230, p=0.001). The research model explains 80.3% variance in employee performance. These findings underscore the importance of a holistic human resource management strategy in the plantation industry, particularly in balancing productivity demands with employee well-being through effective work-life balance management, proportionate workload distribution, fair compensation systems, and strengthening organizational commitments.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the influence of study balance, career balance, and personal life balance on academic achievement in married Master's and Doctoral Program students of the Faculty of Economics and Business, University of North Sumatra (FEB USU), with academic motivation as a mediating variable. The research population is all students of the Master of Management Science Program FEB USU in 2025, which totals 349 students. This study is focused on 141 married students with a sampling technique using total sampling. The research method used is a quantitative approach with the type of associative research. Data were collected through questionnaire distribution and analyzed using the Partial Least Squares–Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) method. The results of the study showed that study balance had a positive but not significant effect on academic achievement. On the other hand, career balance and personal life balance have a positive and significant effect on academic achievement. These three dimensions of balance have also been shown to have a positive and significant effect on academic motivation. Academic motivation then has a positive and significant effect on academic achievement and is able to mediate the influence of study balance, career balance, and personal life balance on academic achievement. Academic motivation fully mediates the influence of study balance on academic achievement because its direct influence is not significant, but becomes significant through indirect channels.

Abstract

Advances in information technology have brought significant transformations in digital payment systems, particularly through the adoption of e-wallets as fast, easy, and secure transaction solutions. Medan, as one of Indonesia's metropolitan cities, has witnessed a growing trend in e-wallet usage, especially the DANA application. However, digital payment technology adoption still faces challenges related to risk perception and user trust. This study aims to analyze the influence of risk perception and perceived ease of use on the intention to use the DANA e-wallet in Medan City, with e-trust as an intervening variable. A quantitative approach with an associative research design was employed. The study population consists of DANA e-wallet users in Medan City (total population of 2,474,166 residents), classified as an infinite population. A sample of 165 respondents was selected through purposive sampling, with the criterion of having used DANA at least twice in the past three months. Data were collected through questionnaires distributed at coffee shops across 21 sub-districts (kecamatan) of Medan. Data analysis was performed using Structural Equation Modeling – Partial Least Squares (SEM-PLS) with SmartPLS 4. The results indicate that: (1) risk perception has a direct negative and insignificant effect on usage intention; (2) risk perception has a negative and insignificant effect on e-trust; (3) perceived ease of use has a direct positive and significant effect on usage intention; (4) perceived ease of use has a positive and significant effect on e-trust; (5) e-trust has a positive and significant effect on usage intention; (6) e-trust does not mediate the relationship between risk perception and usage intention; and (7) e-trust significantly mediates the relationship between perceived ease of use and usage intention. These findings highlight that ease of use and e-trust are the dominant factors driving DANA e-wallet adoption in Medan City.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the influence of digital leadership and online training on employee performance through job satisfaction in a hybrid work environment at the BPJS Ketenagakerjaan Sumbagut Regional Office. Digital transformation and the implementation of a hybrid work system require organizations to strengthen technology-based leadership as well as employee competency development in order to maintain optimal performance. This research uses a quantitative approach with a survey method. The research sample was determined using a purposive sampling technique, with a total of 81 employees as respondents. The data analysis method used is Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) based on Partial Least Squares (PLS). The results show that digital leadership has a positive and significant effect on both job satisfaction and employee performance. Online training also has a positive and significant effect on job satisfaction and employee performance. Furthermore, job satisfaction is proven to have a positive and significant effect on employee performance. The indirect effect testing indicates that job satisfaction is able to significantly mediate the influence of digital leadership and online training on employee performance. These findings suggest that strengthening digital leadership and designing relevant and interactive online training can improve job satisfaction, which in turn enhances employee performance in a hybrid work environment. The implications of this study emphasize the importance of developing digital competencies for both leaders and employees, as well as optimizing online training systems that are aligned with job needs in order to support productivity and service quality in public sector organizations.
