The research method used is quantitative with a multiple linear regression approach. The sample consisted of 70 respondents selected using accidental sampling technique. Data were collected through questionnaires and analyzed using validity and reliability tests, classical assumption tests, multiple linear regression analysis, t-test, F-test, and determination test (Adjusted R Square). The results show that Brand Trust and Product Quality have a positive and significant effect both partially and simultaneously on Purchase Decision.

This study aims to analyze the influence of brand awareness and product innovation on purchase decisions, with purchase intention as a mediating variable, among consumers of Kedai Kopi KULO. The research is motivated by the declining Top Brand Index of Kedai Kopi KULO over the past five years, indicating a potential drop in purchase decisions due to weak brand awareness and limited product innovation. A quantitative approach was used, employing Partial Least Square Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) with the SmartPLS software. The results show that brand awareness does not have a direct and significant effect on purchase decisions, whereas product innovation has a positive and significant effect. Furthermore, both brand awareness and product innovation positively and significantly influence purchase intention, which in turn significantly mediates their effect on purchase decisions. These findings indicate that purchase intention plays a crucial role in bridging the influence of brand awareness and product innovation on consumers’ purchase decisions. Therefore, businesses should focus on enhancing product innovation strategies and increasing consumer purchase intention, along with building strong brand awareness, to improve purchase decisions and maintain competitiveness in an increasingly saturated market.

The skincare and cosmetics industry continues to grow as public awareness of self-care and beauty trends increases. However, the widespread use of single-use packaging in cosmetic products raises new issues in the context of environmental sustainability. This issue drives the importance of understanding how consumer perceptions of sustainability and other product attributes influence purchasing decisions. This study aims to analyze the effect of perceptions of packaging sustainability, environmental awareness, product price, and packaging design on purchasing decisions for Wardah cosmetic products. This study used a quantitative approach with a survey method of 111 respondents and analyzed using multiple linear regression. The results showed that packaging design and perceived packaging sustainability had a significant effect on purchasing decisions, with packaging design as the most dominant factor. In contrast, the variables of environmental concern and product price do not have a statistically significant effect. The model used explains 65.37% of the variation in consumer purchasing decisions. This study indicates that consumer decisions are more influenced by visual aspects and sustainability values that are explicitly communicated through packaging. This study supports the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) framework and provides a practical contribution for cosmetics manufacturers in designing sustainable packaging strategies.

Advancements in information technology have influenced changes in consumer behavior, particularly in making purchasing decisions, especially with the emergence of the Electronic Word of Mouth (EWOM) phenomenon on social media and e-commerce platforms. EWOM refers to the electronic dissemination of information or reviews about products, which many consumers rely on before deciding to purchase a product. This study aims to analyze how three main aspects of EWOM—intensity, Valence of Opinion, and content quality—affect purchasing decisions for Barenbliss lip cosmetic products in Bandar Lampung. This study uses a quantitative-descriptive approach, with data collected through a questionnaire distributed to consumers who have used Barenbliss products and have seen digital reviews about the product. The sample selected consists of consumers with direct experience with the product and who can provide insights into the influence of digital reviews on purchasing decisions. The data collected was analyzed using SPSS 25.0. The results show that all three independent variables—intensity, Valence of Opinion, and content quality—have a significant positive impact on purchasing decisions, either individually or collectively. All hypothesis tests showed significance values below 0.05, indicating that the hypotheses are accepted. These findings suggest that the more frequently consumers are exposed to product reviews, the higher the likelihood they will make a purchase. Positive reviews (Valence of Opinion) were found to enhance consumer trust in the product, while informative and high-quality content further strengthened the intention to purchase. Overall, this study emphasizes that EWOM plays a significant role in shaping consumer purchasing decisions. The intensity of reviews, positive Valence of Opinion, and content quality work together to increase the likelihood of purchasing Barenbliss products in Bandar Lampung.

In the digital age, consumer awareness of sustainable products has increased significantly. Recent research (2023-2025) shows that 84% of Indonesian consumers have used eco-friendly products, driven by a desire to preserve the earth. The purpose of this study is to analyze how digital information, particularly Electronic Word-of-Mouth (E-WOM), perceptions of sustainable packaging, and environmental concerns influence consumer perceptions and purchasing decisions in Indonesia. The proposed method is a quantitative approach using multiple linear regression analysis, preceded by classical assumption testing and instrument reliability testing. Key findings from the supporting literature indicate that E-WOM has a strong influence on purchase interest, even mediating the relationship between green marketing and purchase intention. In addition, product information transparency (ecological labels) is significant in increasing trust. The conclusion confirms that effective digital strategies must prioritize positive E-WOM communication and sustainability data transparency.

These results emphasize the need for businesses to consistently deliver high product quality and set prices that reflect customer value to stay competitive.

This study aims to examine the influence of price and store atmosphere on repurchase decisions, with customer satisfaction as a moderating variable among Beocca Coffee consumers in Malang Regency. A quantitative explanatory approach was employed, involving 130 respondents selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected via an online questionnaire and analyzed using Partial Least Square–Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM). The results show that price, store atmosphere, and customer satisfaction have a positive and significant effect on repurchase decisions. However, customer satisfaction was not proven to moderate the relationship between price and repurchase decisions, nor between store atmosphere and repurchase decisions. These findings indicate that price and store atmosphere influence repurchase decisions directly, regardless of customer satisfaction levels. The practical implication is that coffee shop managers should focus on offering competitive prices and creating a pleasant store atmosphere. Although customer satisfaction does not act as a moderator, it remains a crucial direct factor affecting loyalty. Future studies are encouraged to expand the research scope geographically and include additional variables such as customer loyalty, perceived quality, or digital marketing strategies to deepen the understanding of repurchase behavior in the local coffee shop industry.
