This study aims to examine the influence of live streaming, affiliate marketing, and perceived price on purchase decisions with customer trust as a mediating variable among students of Universitas Proklamasi 45. This study used a quantitative approach with a purposive sampling technique to determine 100 respondents relevant to the research criteria. The research instrument in the form of a structured questionnaire was distributed to obtain primary data, then analyzed using the Partial Least Squares (PLS) path model as a statistical analysis method.

These findings provide theoretical contributions to the development of digital marketing science, particularly in understanding the mediating role of customer trust in consumer behavior. In addition, practical implications for business actors are the importance of building consumer trust through live streaming strategies, affiliate marketing, and appropriate price offers to improve purchase decisions.

The growth of e-commerce in Indonesia has changed consumption patterns, especially in the online purchase of skincare products. Shopee, as the largest marketplace, has become the main platform for brands such as Skintific, which has achieved high sales.

TikTok has emerged as one of the most influential social media platforms, forming a global online community that penetrates diverse industries, including skincare. In Indonesia, skincare ranks among the most discussed topics on TikTok, which makes the platform a significant channel for influencing consumer behavior. This study aimed to analyze how TikTok content shapes consumer purchasing decisions for skincare products in Indonesia. A qualitative method was applied using in-depth interviews with 12 respondents representing young adult consumers familiar with skincare products. The findings highlight several insights. First, TikTok content positively influences the problem recognition stage, helping consumers become more aware of their skincare needs. Second, TikTok was identified as the second most used social media source for skincare-related information, though its credibility is perceived only at a moderate level. Third, the platform plays a moderate role in the evaluation of alternatives, where consumers compare and consider skincare products. However, nearly half of the respondents reported a gap between information obtained from TikTok and actual product performance, resulting in disappointment and reluctance to share their experiences on the platform. Moreover, respondents revealed clear preferences regarding content: (1) comparative content showcasing product performance, (2) detailed content discussing product features, and (3) content providing tangible proof of effectiveness. These findings emphasize the dual role of TikTok as both an influential information source and a platform with credibility challenges. The study contributes to a better understanding of digital consumer behavior in Indonesia’s skincare industry. It also provides practical recommendations for marketers to design more transparent, credible, and consumer-oriented TikTok marketing strategies.

This study aims to examine the influence of Product Variation, Brand Image, and Co-Branding on Purchase Decisions among Miniso Central Park consumers in West Jakarta. The research was conducted using a quantitative approach with 100 respondents selected through non-probability sampling with an accidental sampling technique. Data were collected using questionnaires based on a Likert scale and analyzed using SPSS version 25 with multiple linear regression. The findings show that Product Variation does not significantly influence purchase decisions, indicating that the wide variety of Miniso products alone is not the primary factor driving consumer choices. In contrast, Brand Image demonstrates a strong and significant influence, highlighting that consumers’ trust and perception of Miniso’s brand identity play an important role in their purchasing behavior. Furthermore, Co-Branding also significantly affects purchase decisions, as collaborations with other well-known brands or icons enhance the appeal and perceived value of Miniso products. The combined effect of Brand Image and Co-Branding creates stronger consumer engagement, although Product Variation alone remains insufficient in driving decisions. This study contributes to the understanding of retail marketing strategies, particularly in the context of lifestyle-oriented retail businesses. It suggests that building a strong brand image and leveraging effective co-branding partnerships are more impactful than merely expanding product variety. The implications of this research can assist retail companies in optimizing their marketing mix strategies to strengthen competitiveness in Indonesia’s rapidly growing retail sector.

The footwear industry has experienced significant growth, particularly in the fashion segment, where shoes are no longer considered solely as functional items but also as lifestyle products that reflect personal identity and social expression. Among various global brands, Dr. Martens has become one of the premium footwear products with a distinctive image and loyal consumer base. This study aims to examine the influence of Product Quality, Brand Image, and Brand Awareness on Purchasing Decisions of Dr. Martens shoes in Jakarta. The research employed a quantitative method with non-probability sampling, using the accidental sampling technique. The population consisted of consumers who had purchased Dr. Martens shoes, and a total of 100 respondents were collected through questionnaires distributed among university students. The instrument used was a Likert scale questionnaire, and the data were analyzed using multiple linear regression with SPSS version 22. The findings show that Product Quality and Brand Awareness have a positive and significant influence on Purchasing Decisions, while Brand Image does not show a significant effect. These results indicate that consumers are more influenced by tangible product attributes and the level of brand recognition than by brand perception alone. This highlights the importance for premium footwear companies to maintain consistent product quality and strengthen brand awareness strategies, especially through digital marketing channels, to influence purchase behavior. The study contributes to the literature on consumer behavior and provides practical insights for fashion industry players to formulate effective marketing strategies in a competitive market.
