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.

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 was conducted to examine the influence of ticket prices, facilities, and location on visitor satisfaction at Tirta Bening Swimming Pool. The approach used was quantitative with data collection through primary and secondary sources. The study population consisted of all visitors to Tirta Bening Swimming Pool. Data analysis techniques used included validity testing, reliability testing, classical assumption testing, multiple linear regression analysis, and hypothesis testing. The results of the study indicate that partially, the three variables—ticket prices, facilities, and location—influence visitor satisfaction, as indicated by the t-test results. Meanwhile, based on the F-test, all three simultaneously also have a significant influence on the level of visitor satisfaction. More specifically, the facility variable has a dominant influence on visitor satisfaction. This indicates that comfort, cleanliness, completeness of facilities, and the quality of service provided by the management significantly influence visitors' perceptions of their experience at the swimming pool. Affordable ticket prices are also a major attraction, especially for families and student groups seeking cost-effective recreational alternatives. Meanwhile, the strategic and easily accessible location is also an added value, especially for visitors from the surrounding area. The implications of these findings are the importance of regularly upgrading and maintaining facilities, as well as providing additional services such as a cafeteria, comfortable changing rooms, and responsive security personnel. Management is also advised to periodically evaluate ticket pricing to maintain competitiveness while still supporting operational and service development. Furthermore, location promotion through social media and digital platforms can also expand visitor reach. This research provides an important contribution to the development of tourism destination marketing and management strategies based on visitor needs and satisfaction.
