The motorcycle industry in Indonesia has experienced rapid development, particularly in the scooter segment, which dominates the market due to its convenience and efficiency. Despite this growth, Yamaha’s market share has shown fluctuations, indicating inconsistent consumer purchase intention. This study aims to analyze the effect of Word of Mouth (WOM), Brand Image, and Social Media Marketing (SMM) on purchase intention of Yamaha motorcycles in Denpasar City, using the Theory of Reasoned Action (TRA) as the underlying framework. The research employed a quantitative approach with a survey method involving 104 respondents. Data were analyzed using validity and reliability tests, classical assumption tests, and multiple linear regression analysis. The results demonstrate that WOM, Brand Image, and SMM each have a positive and significant effect on purchase intention, with WOM emerging as the most dominant factor. The regression model indicates that these three variables jointly explain 77.2% of the variance in purchase intention, while the remaining 22.8% is explained by other factors not included in this study. The findings confirm that strengthening WOM, enhancing brand image, and optimizing social media strategies are essential to increase consumer purchase intention. This study contributes to both theoretical development and managerial practice in the field of consumer behavior and marketing strategy in the automotive industry.

This study aims to analyze the development strategy of micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) in the coffee sector using the Business Model Canvas (BMC) and SWOT Analysis approaches. A case study was conducted at Paul Coffee Shop, located in Tajurhalang, Bogor Regency. The research method employed was descriptive qualitative, with data collected through observation, interviews, and literature review. The results indicate that the current business model of Paul Coffee Shop has strengths in affordable pricing and personal relationships with customers but still has weaknesses in digital marketing and product innovation. Through SWOT analysis, development strategies were formulated, including product diversification, strengthening digital marketing, collaboration with local MSMEs, and customer loyalty programs. This study emphasizes that BMC can be used not only in the initial stage of business establishment but also as a tool for evaluation and strategy development for ongoing MSMEs.

The development of financial technology (fintech) in the digital era has made it easier for young people, particularly students, to access investment services through applications such as Bibit, Ajaib, Pluang, and Bareksa. The increasing number of young investors has not been fully aligned with the quality of investment decision-making, which is still influenced by low financial literacy, social media promotion, and the availability of financial education features on digital platforms. This study aims to analyze the influence of financial education features and social media promotion on student investment behavior, with financial literacy as a moderating variable. The primary theory used is the Theory of Planned Behavior (Ajzen, 1991), supported by Financial Literacy Theory, Uses and Gratification Theory, and the Technology Acceptance Model. The research method uses a quantitative approach with a population of student users of the Bibit application in Bali. The independent variables in this study include financial education features and social media promotion, while the dependent variable is investment behavior, while financial literacy is positioned as a moderating variable. The results of this study are expected to provide theoretical contributions to the development of management studies, digital marketing, and behavioral finance, as well as practical benefits for investment application developers, educational institutions, and students in fostering rational, intelligent, and sustainable investment behavior in the digital era.

This study aims to analyze the influence of the Problem-Based Learning (PBL) model assisted by e-LKPD on students’ problem-solving abilities and self-confidence in vocational high schools. Specifically, the objectives are: (1) to examine the simultaneous effect of the PBL model assisted by e-LKPD on both variables, (2) to determine its effect on problem-solving ability, and (3) to evaluate its effect on self-confidence. A quantitative approach with a quasi-experimental pretest–posttest control group design was applied. The population consisted of all 10th-grade students at SMK Negeri 1 Tarakan, while the sample was selected using purposive sampling, resulting in class X Marketing 1 (35 students) as the experimental group and class X Culinary 2 (34 students) as the control group. Research instruments included a problem-solving test and a self-confidence questionnaire. Hypothesis testing utilized Hotelling’s T² and independent sample t-tests. The findings showed that 97% of students in the experimental class met the Learning Objectives Mastery (KKTP), compared to only 18% in the control group. Improvement in the experimental group was categorized as high, whereas in the control group it was moderate. Self-confidence also increased significantly in the experimental group, with most students moving from low to high categories. Hotelling’s Trace (Fcount = 77.109, p < 0.001) and t-tests confirmed significant effects on both problem-solving (tcount = 11.657) and self-confidence (tcount = 8.140), proving that the PBL model assisted by e-LKPD effectively enhances students’ abilities and confidence.

Introduction: Experiential marketing has become a growing trend in promotional activities by emphasizing personalization and active customer involvement. Preliminary observations indicate a decline in outpatient visits among patients with general insurance and non-JKN coverage in 2023, which may be influenced by a decrease in their intention to use outpatient services. This condition highlights the need for hospitals to implement experiential marketing strategies to enhance patient interest and experience. Objective: This study aims to empirically examine the influence of patient experience and service perception on the intention to use outpatient services, with Strategic Experiential Modules (SEMs) as an intervening variable. Methods: This quantitative research employs a causal design involving outpatient service users as the population. A non-probability sampling technique was used, yielding 249 respondents. Data were collected using a questionnaire and analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) with AMOS software. Results: The findings reveal that patient experience and service perception simultaneously have a significant positive influence on the intention to use outpatient services through SEMs. Service perception directly shows a significant positive effect on both SEMs and intention to use outpatient services, while SEMs also significantly enhance usage intention. Service perception emerges as the dominant variable in increasing SEMs and usage intention, whereas patient experience has the weakest effect. Conclusion: Patient experience and service perception collectively influence the intention to use outpatient services with SEMs as an intervening variable. Strengthening Customer Relationship Management is essential by improving human resources and optimizing service asset.
