This study aims to analyze the effect of employer branding on the job interest of Generation Z in digital companies. The background of this research is based on the increasing competition among companies in attracting young talents, especially Generation Z, who have unique characteristics such as being highly adaptive to technology, prioritizing work-life balance, and having high expectations toward the workplace environment. Employer branding has become an essential strategy for companies to build an attractive and competitive image as an employer. This study employs a quantitative approach using a survey method. Data were collected through an online questionnaire distributed to 100 respondents from Generation Z who are seeking jobs or interested in working in digital companies. The sampling technique used was purposive sampling. Data analysis techniques include validity testing, reliability testing, simple linear regression analysis, and t-test. The results indicate that employer branding has a positive and significant effect on Generation Z’s job interest. This implies that the better the company’s image as an employer, the higher the interest of Generation Z to work in the company. This study suggests that digital companies need to strengthen their employer branding strategies to attract and retain young talents.

The Indonesian capital market has become a vital pillar of the national economy, providing opportunities for companies to obtain funding while simultaneously providing an investment vehicle for the wider community. In this context, stocks are the most sought-after instrument due to the potential returns they offer. However, stock investment is constantly faced with uncertainty, with fluctuating stock prices often presenting challenges for investors, especially those without a thorough understanding of the company's fundamental performance. An interesting phenomenon, the starting point of this research, is the quite extreme price movements of BIPI shares over the past decade. From 2015 to 2021, BIPI's share price remained stagnant at Rp 50 per share, a condition often referred to by market participants as "gocap" (goat capit). This condition reflects low investor interest in the company's shares, possibly due to high risk perceptions or unconvincing fundamental performance.

The use of e-wallets is increasing in Indonesia, especially during the Covid-19 pandemic. The most popular digital wallets in Indonesia, such as Go-Pay, OVO, ShopeePay, Dana, and LinkAja, have adapted the mobile banking system, making it easy for users to download the app through the Play Store or App Store. According to Insight Asia, DANA is ranked third in terms of number of users after Gopay and OVO, with 221 respondents from major Indonesian cities. As an e-wallet platform created by PT Espay Debit Indonesi Koe Indonesia in 2018, DANA, as a local company, attracts people's interest and has become a popular choice. This study aims to identify the relationship and influence between Perceived Usefulness and Perceived Ease of Use on Decision to Use E-wallet, especially DANA, with Intention to Use E-wallet as an intervention variable. Through regression tests, the research findings show that Perceived Usefulness and Perceived Ease of Use have a positive and significant effect on Intention to Use DANA, and Intention to Use DANA has a significant effect on Decision to Use DANA. Intention to Use E-wallet mediates the relationship between Perceived Usefulness and Perceived Ease of Use with Decision to Use DANA. This result is obtained by looking at the results of statistical processing, where the p-value <0.005. These findings imply that the perceived usefulness and ease of use of the DANA application has the potential to encourage user interest in using e-wallets, which in turn can influence users' decisions to adopt DANA as an electronic payment method.

This study aims to determine the influence of affiliate marketing programs, price, and promotion on purchasing decisions for Mezuca perfume on TikTok Shop. As the digital era advances, social media platforms like TikTok serve not only as entertainment platforms but also as effective channels for marketing products through the TikTok Shop feature and affiliate programs. This strategy allows content creators to act as sales partners, directly influencing consumer decisions. This quantitative study utilizes primary data obtained through questionnaires distributed to 180 respondents who had purchased Mezuca perfume through Mamnun's TikTok Shop account. After a selection process using purposive sampling, 160 respondents met the criteria and were eligible for analysis. Data analysis was performed using SPSS software with various statistical tests, including descriptive statistics, validity and reliability tests, classical assumption tests, multiple linear regression analysis, t-tests, F-tests, and coefficients of determination (R²). The results indicate that affiliate marketing programs, price, and promotion simultaneously have a positive and significant effect on purchasing decisions. Partially, these three variables also show a significant positive influence on consumer decisions. These findings indicate that implementing effective digital marketing strategies, particularly through affiliate marketing, competitive pricing, and engaging promotions, plays a significant role in increasing consumer purchasing interest on social media platforms. This research offers practical implications for businesses in designing optimal and targeted digital marketing strategies.

This study aims to determine the influence of independent variables, namely Promotion, Location, and Product Variation, on the dependent variable, Purchase Decision, at Seduhlur Coffee Kediri. The research method used is quantitative, employing multiple linear regression analysis with the assistance of SPSS version 26 software. The sampling technique applied in this study is incidental sampling, which involves selecting respondents who happen to be present and meet certain criteria at the time the research is conducted. Based on the results of data analysis, it can be concluded that the Promotion variable has a positive and significant partial effect on Purchase Decision. This indicates that the better the promotional strategies carried out, the more likely consumers are to make a purchase. Similarly, the Location variable also shows a positive and significant partial influence, suggesting that the comfort and accessibility of Seduhlur Coffee’s location play an important role in influencing consumer decisions. Product Variation is also found to have a positive and significant partial effect on Purchase Decision, meaning that a greater variety of products offered increases the likelihood of attracting consumer interest. Simultaneously, all three variables — Promotion, Location, and Product Variation — have a significant and positive influence on Purchase Decision. This research is expected to provide useful input for Seduhlur Coffee Kediri in improving its marketing strategies and service quality to encourage and increase consumer purchasing decisions.

This study aims to examine the influence of word of mouth on buying interest and its impact on the purchase decision of Muzan Net wi-fi services. This study uses three main variables, namely independent variables, bound variables, and intervening variables. The free variable is word of mouth, the bound variable is the purchase decision, while the intervening variable is the buying interest. The research sample consisted of 55 consumer respondents who knew and used the Muzan Net wi-fi service in Sanggrahan Village. Research data was obtained through questionnaires, observations, and interviews, with sampling techniques using the simple random sampling method. Data analysis is carried out through several stages, namely measurement or outer model, structural model or inner model, and hypothesis test. The results of the study show that word of mouth has a positive and significant effect on buying interest. Furthermore, word of mouth also has a positive but not insignificant effect directly on the purchase decision. Meanwhile, buying interest has been proven to have a positive and significant effect on purchase decisions. In addition, buying interest is able to mediate the relationship between word of mouth and purchase decisions, thereby strengthening the role of word of mouth in encouraging consumers to finally make a purchase decision. This research provides practical benefits for companies in maximizing word-of-mouth-based marketing strategies, as well as a reference for future research to develop similar studies with different objects, locations, and variables.

This study aims to analyze the influence of brand image, product variety, and bundling price on purchasing decisions among X consumers. The method used is a quantitative approach with a causal research design, so as to be able to explain the cause-and-effect relationship between variables. The research data was obtained by distributing questionnaires to 96 respondents who are active consumers of X. To ensure data quality, a series of tests were conducted including validity, reliability, normality, linearity, multicollinearity, and heteroscedasticity. The main analysis used multiple linear regression supported by t-tests, F-tests, and coefficient of determination (R²) processed using SPSS software version 26. The results showed that brand image had a significant effect on purchasing decisions, indicating that consumers' positive perceptions of X's reputation were able to encourage higher purchasing interest. Bundling price also proved to have a significant effect, because the strategy of combining package prices was considered to provide economic benefits and added value for consumers. In contrast, product variety did not have a significant effect, indicating that consumers place more emphasis on brand image and pricing strategies than simply menu diversity. However, when tested simultaneously, all three variables were still shown to have a significant influence on purchasing decisions. The coefficient of determination value of 0.594 indicates that the combination of the three variables can explain 59.4% of the variation in purchasing decisions, while the remaining 40.6% is influenced by other external factors such as service quality, consumer trends, promotions, and customer experience. These findings reinforce the understanding that a strong brand image-based marketing strategy and the implementation of appropriate bundling prices can be key to increasing consumer appeal. For local coffee businesses like X, this study provides practical implications to focus more efforts on strengthening brand image, creating a consistent consumer experience, and optimizing pricing strategies.

This study aims to determine the effect of pricing, sales promotions, and stock availability on sales volume at H&G Collection. In an era of increasingly fierce business competition, companies need to manage marketing strategies effectively to maintain and increase sales. Appropriate pricing can influence product appeal to consumers, planned sales promotions can increase purchasing interest, while maintained stock availability ensures that consumer demand is met without interruption. This study used a quantitative approach with primary data sources obtained through questionnaires. The population in this study was all H&G Collection employees in the marketing, finance, and general administration divisions. The sampling technique used a saturated or census sampling method, where all members of the population were sampled. The number of respondents involved in this study was 37. The research instruments were tested for validity and reliability before being used in data collection. The data obtained were analyzed using SPSS version 19 software. The analysis methods included classical assumption tests, multiple linear regression analysis, t-tests, and F-tests to determine partial and simultaneous effects between variables. The results of the study indicate that the three independent variables, namely pricing (X₁), sales promotion (X₂), and stock availability (X₃), have a significant effect on the dependent variable, namely sales volume (Y). This proves that the right pricing strategy, effective promotions, and optimal inventory management can significantly increase sales volume. This finding implies that H&G Collection management needs to maintain and even improve the quality of the implementation of these three variables in an integrated manner to support sales growth and the company's competitiveness in the market.

This study aims to examine the influence of host interaction and flash sale discounts on consumer interest in live shopping on Shopee among the community in Surabaya City. The research employs a quantitative approach using a structured questionnaire as the primary data collection method. A total of 96 respondents, all of whom actively engage in online shopping via Shopee, were selected as the study sample. Data analysis was conducted using SPSS, applying both t-tests and F-tests to evaluate the hypotheses. The t-test results reveal that host interaction significantly affects consumer interest, with a t-count value of 5.252 exceeding the t-table value of 1.986, and a significance level of 0.000, which is below the 0.05 threshold. Similarly, flash sale discounts also demonstrate a significant effect on consumer interest, with a t-count value of 3.217 surpassing the t-table value of 1.986, and a significance level of 0.002, indicating statistical significance. Furthermore, the F-test results indicate that host interaction and flash sale discounts have a simultaneous and significant influence on consumer interest, as evidenced by an F-count value of 26.37 exceeding the F-table value of 3.9434, with a significance level of 0.000. These findings suggest that both host interaction and flash sale discounts play a crucial role in shaping consumer purchasing interest during live shopping events. The results highlight the importance for resellers and online sellers to enhance host engagement skills and strategically implement time-limited discount offers to attract and retain consumers. In the increasingly competitive e-commerce environment, optimizing these two factors may significantly contribute to improving customer engagement and driving sales performance. This research provides practical insights for online retailers seeking to strengthen their marketing strategies on live shopping platforms

This study aims to determine the relationship between conflict management, occupational safety and health (OHS), and work motivation towards increasing employee productivity at PT. Ratna Beton Giriwoyo. The background of this study is based on the importance of human resource management as a company's main asset in achieving optimal productivity targets, especially in the construction industry sector which has its own challenges in creating a safe and productive work environment. This study uses a quantitative approach with data collection techniques through distributing questionnaires to all company employees as respondents. The data obtained are then analyzed statistically to determine the effect of each variable on employee work productivity. The results show that conflict management has a significant relationship with employee productivity. Properly managed conflict not only avoids a decline in performance but can also increase morale and cooperation between employees. In addition, the implementation of good occupational safety and health (OHS) contributes to a sense of security and comfort at work, thereby reducing workplace accidents and increasing employee focus and work efficiency. Work motivation has also been shown to have an important role in encouraging employees to achieve predetermined performance targets. These three variables, both partially and simultaneously, have a significant effect on employee work productivity. These findings suggest that an integrated approach to conflict management, OSH implementation, and increased work motivation can be an effective strategy for improving company performance. This research is expected to provide practical contributions to the management of PT. Ratna Beton Giriwoyo in formulating human resource development policies, as well as serve as an academic reference for researchers and students interested in human resource management, particularly in the construction sector.

This study aims to explore and understand the impact of various internal corporate governance and financial structure variables on firm value, specifically within the context of the Indonesian banking sector. The variables examined include company size, capital structure, managerial ownership, institutional ownership, and the presence of independent commissioners. The study focuses on companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange during the period from 2022 to 2024. A quantitative research approach was employed, using purposive sampling to select banking firms that met the criteria for analysis. The data were analyzed using multiple linear regression to determine the individual and simultaneous influence of each variable on firm value. The empirical findings reveal that company size does not have a significant effect on firm value, indicating that larger asset bases or broader operations are not necessarily associated with higher market valuation in the banking sector. Conversely, capital structure—reflected by the proportion of debt to equity—has a positive and significant effect, suggesting that leverage, when managed efficiently, enhances firm value. Meanwhile, managerial ownership does not show a notable contribution to firm value, implying that insider ownership may not always align with shareholder interests. On the other hand, institutional ownership exerts a positive and significant influence, indicating that the presence of large, professional investors can enhance oversight and value creation. Finally, the presence of independent commissioners does not significantly impact firm value. Overall, the results highlight that, although not all governance variables have a direct individual influence, the five variables studied jointly have a significant effect on firm value. These findings have implications for corporate governance practices and financial decision-making in the banking sector, especially in emerging markets such as Indonesia.

Gen-Z has grown alongside rapid technological and digital media development, fostering frequent virtual interactions over face-to-face ones. This shift often triggers Fear of Missing Out (FOMO), where individuals feel anxious about missing trends or updates. Among Gen-Z, FOMO is strongly influenced by social media, driving consumptive behavior. This article explores how FOMO creates opportunities for Indonesian Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) through jasa titip (personal shopping services). Using the Dubai Chocolate trend as a case study, it highlights how social media-driven demand has spurred interest in personal shopping services to source and deliver such products. The research emphasizes the importance of social media as a tool for MSMEs to tap into FOMO-driven markets. It also encourages MSMEs to innovate by offering affordable, locally sourced alternatives to remain competitive. This approach enables MSMEs to thrive in a dynamic, trend-focused digital landscape.
