Abstract

Nike, an old player that has ruled the athletic footwear and apparel industry recently just dropped a bombshell news. The world is staggered by Nike’s interesting decision by choosing Travis Scott, an American rapper, as their celebrity endorsement. Given this phenomenon, we analyzed the relationship between celebrity endorsement, brand image, and purchase intention if implemented through a cross-industry endorsement strategy. We analyzed the phenomenon utilizing the theory of purchase intention and celebrity endorsement, with the brand image as a mediating variable. The research utilizes simple random sampling through a close-ended questionnaire distributed on social media as our method to collect data. Further, the data will be analyzed through PLS-SEM method by using SMART PLS 4 software. The result of the research shows that celebrity endorsement results in a positive impact on customers' purchase intention and the company's brand image. With the increasing value of Nike's brand image, brand image has a positive mediation impact on the relationship between celebrity endorsement and purchase intention. This research enriches the theory of purchase intention, brand image, and celebrity endorsement, providing a cross-industry element in an intersecting branding strategy for a wider market to conduct a purchase. With further enrichment of the theory, this research enlarges the space for innovation in the marketing and creative industry.Keywords: Nike, branding, influence, celebrity endorsement, customer purchase intention, random sampling.

Abstract

With the increasing trend of online shopping and the emerging local skincare industry in Indonesia, the internet has been connecting consumers with the local skincare brands and stimulating their intention to purchase. The objective of this study was to further analyze the impact of electronic word of mouth (e-WOM) in shaping the image of a brand which then impacts consumer purchase intention towards local skincare brands. Somethinc was the subject of this study since the brand has become one of the fastest-growing local skincare brands in Indonesia. Using random sampling from the probability sampling method, the online survey of this study involved participants who are Indonesian-born and residents aged 19 to 45 years old and are aware of Somethinc’s brand existence on any platform on the internet. The data gathered were analyzed and tested upon the hypothesis using the PLS-SEM method. The result suggested that brand image significantly mediates the relationship between e-WOM and purchase intention, in which e-WOM establishes how consumers perceive the brand image of Somethinc, which subsequently increases their intention to purchase Somethinc’s products. Through this understanding, local skincare brands in Indonesia, Somethinc specifically, will benefit from the result of this study to further improve their strategy and retain more consumers. Keywords: e-WOM, purchase intention, brand image, local skincare brand, Somethinc, online reviews, online recommendations, online platform, social media.
