The findings reveal that internal factors contributing to the success of marketing strategies include disciplined promotional implementation, competitive low-interest rate offerings, and fast, responsive service. External factors supporting success include direct promotions in public areas such as traditional markets, support from local governments, and stable economic conditions. Direct marketing strategies, such as canvassing and leveraging referrals from existing customers, effectively enhanced customer loyalty and expanded the reach to potential KUR recipients. Furthermore, the use of digital media—such as social media platforms, chatbots, and geotargeted advertising—significantly accelerated communication, increased product visibility, and raised public awareness of the benefits of KUR. The combination of digital and personal approaches proved to be an efficient and effective strategy in reaching broader market segments. Overall, the integration of adaptive and comprehensive marketing strategies has made a significant contribution to increasing the volume of KUR distribution at Bank Jateng, Brebes Branch.
