It influences consumer behavior through live broadcasting and the dissemination of viral content. The objective is to examine the influence of these three factors on purchasing decisions. This study employs a quantitative methodology. The data was obtained from surveys administered to 60 Gen Z participants who purchased food or beverages following exposure to TikTok advertising. Samples were selected by purposive sampling. Data were examined using multiple linear regression with SPSS software. Findings indicate that TikTok Live exerts a favorable and substantial impact on purchasing decisions. Viral material exerts no substantial impact. FOMO exerts a detrimental and substantial impact.

This study aims to analyze the effect of product bundling strategies, countdown timer urgency, and social proof on the interactive responses of Generation Alpha consumers toward Scora skincare products in Bandar Lampung, with live streaming as a moderating variable. Interactive responses in this study include comments, questions, likes, and purchase actions during live streaming sessions. This research employs a quantitative approach, with data collected through ques-tionnaires. The sample consists of 300 Generation Alpha respondents in Bandar Lampung who have watched Scora’s live streaming promotions. Data analysis techniques include multiple linear regression analysis and Moderated Regression Analysis (MRA). The results indicate that product bundling strategies, countdown timer urgency, and social proof have a positive and significant effect on interactive responses, both partially and simultaneously. However, the moderation test results reveal that live streaming does not moderate the relationship between product bundling strategies, countdown timer urgency, and social proof on interactive responses. These findings suggest that although live streaming serves as a primary promotional medium, it does not necessarily strengthen the influence of marketing strategies on Generation Alpha’s in-teractive responses. This study is expected to provide practical insights for local skincare brands in developing more effective digital marketing strategies through live streaming commerce.

The phenomenon of student brawls has become a source of pride for those with violent tendencies, especially among students. As a result, the phenomenon of student brawls in Indonesia has recently become commonplace. In fact, these brawls have shifted from mere physical fights to violent acts connected directly to social media (live streaming). SMAN 1 Kersana, as a school that is concerned about this phenomenon, has taken anticipatory steps to prevent its students from becoming victims or perpetrators of violence or bullying. One of these measures is by holding In-House Training (IHT) attended by all teachers and staff at the school. After the IHT, there are also follow-ups as concrete steps from the implementation of IHT to develop programs for preventing and handling violence. An understanding of the laws related to acts of violence is mandatory for all parties involved. Furthermore, synergy between all parties, between the school, the school committee, and parents of students is one of the keys to preventing and handling violence at SMAN 1 Kersana.

The growth of online shopping has encouraged brands to utilize live-streaming as a promotional tool to attract consumers, including Parfumoist in Lampung, which actively broadcasts product demonstrations to increase audience engagement. However, whether these broadcasts truly build trust and stimulate purchase intention remains uncertain, forming the central problem of this research. The research tried to analyze the influence of interactivity, visualization, entertainment, and professionalization during live-streaming on consumer trust and purchase intention. Using Stimulus-Organism-Response framework, live-streaming elements are positioned as stimuli, trust as the organism, and purchase intention as the response. A quantitative approach was employed, with purposive sampling of viewers who watched Parfumoist live streams and had made or intended to make a purchase. Data from an online questionnaire then analyzed with SEM-PLS. The findings reveal all four dimensions of live-streaming significantly affect purchase intention, mediated through consumer trust. The findings highlight that effective live-streaming depends not only on frequent broadcasts, but also on the ability of the host to interact meaningfully, present attractive visuals, entertain viewers, and display professionalism. This study concludes that improving the overall quality of live-stream sessions strengthens trust and intention to buy, offering theoretical implications for digital marketing research and practical recommendations for MSMEs to optimize live-streaming strategies in competitive markets.

Validity tests, reliability tests, t and f tests, simple linear regression, and classical assumptions were used to assess the data. The analysis's findings indicate that live broadcasting significantly influences consumers' decisions to buy. The resulting regression equation is Y = 10.166 - 0.742X. The hypothesis is supported since the t-value of 10.178 is greater than the t-table of 1.999 and has a significance level of 0.000 (p < 0.05). At 103.584, the F test is likewise significant. The influence of the live streaming variable is indicated by the coefficient of determination (R2) of 62.6%, whilst other elements not included in this research model influence 37.4%.

The development of e-commerce and digital technology has changed the consumption patterns of students, especially through live streaming features and twin date events on Shopee. This study aims to analyze the role of Fear of Missing Out (FOMO) in mediating the influence of live streaming and twin-date events on the consumption behavior of students at Yogyakarta State University. A quantitative approach was used with the Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) method based on Partial Least Squares (PLS). The research sample consisted of 315 student respondents who had used the live streaming feature and participated in Shopee's twin-date events. The results showed that twin-date events had a positive and significant effect on FOMO and consumer behavior, while live streaming only had a significant effect on consumer behavior but not on FOMO. FOMO itself significantly influences consumer behavior and mediates the influence of the twin date event on consumer behavior. However, FOMO does not mediate the influence of live streaming on consumer behavior. This finding indicates that the urgency of time and exclusive promotions during the twin date event are more effective in triggering FOMO than live streaming. This study recommends the importance of digital consumption literacy for students and the development of emotion-based marketing strategies by e-commerce platforms. This study has limitations in terms of sample scope and variables used, so further research is recommended to include additional variables such as lifestyle or financial literacy, and to expand the sample to other universities.

The rapid advancement of digital technology has unlocked new opportunities in marketing, especially through social media platforms like TikTok. This study explores the synergy between viral marketing, gimmick marketing, and influencer marketing in driving the transformation of customer behavior from passive consumers to active participants within the digital marketing ecosystem.

Similarly, gimmick marketing demonstrates a direct and significant impact on this transformation. Moreover, influencer marketing serves as a mediator, amplifying the effects of both viral and gimmick marketing on transformation of customer behavior.
