The purpose of this study is to assess the impact of halal brands, brand image, and price perceptions on the motivation and purchasing choices of Wardah consumers, as well as to identify the psychological and behavioral factors underlying the phenomenon of "The Wardah Effect" among Indonesian people. This study uses a descriptive quantitative approach supported by qualitative data. A total of 21 Wardah respondents aged 18 to 27 years old in Kudus were selected as respondents through purposive sampling techniques.

In the current era, the land transportation sector in Indonesia is still in the development stage, both for private and public use. The needs of modern society, which demands that everything be more practical and efficient, has led to an increase in demand for motor vehicles, especially car rental services, every day. This study uses a quantitative method with a focus on analyzing data obtained from questionnaires. The independent variables in this study consist of price (X1), promotion (X2), and service quality (X3), while the dependent variable is customer decision (Y). The research data was collected from 100 respondents who used SJ Trans Rent Car services in Sidoarjo and analyzed statistically using SPSS version 25. The analysis results show a regression model of Y = 1.791 + 0.148X1 + 0.220X2 + 0.227X3 + e. If the values of X1, X2, and X3 are zero, then the Y variable remains at 1.791.

The three variables were found to have a positive relationship with Y, both partially and simultaneously. These findings confirm that the right pricing strategy, effective promotion, and high-quality service are important factors that service providers must consider in order to increase competitiveness and build customer loyalty in the car rental industry.

This research aims to determine the influence of Content Marketing, Influencer Marketing, and Customer Engagement on the Purchase Decisions of The Face Shop products on the Shopee marketplace. The study adopts a quantitative method with a simple random sampling technique, involving 113 respondents who are consumers of The Face Shop. Data were collected through structured questionnaires and analyzed using SmartPLS 4 and Microsoft Excel 2019 to test the research model. The results indicate that, simultaneously, Content Marketing, Influencer Marketing, and Customer Engagement significantly affect Purchase Decisions, suggesting that the combined effect of these digital marketing strategies plays a crucial role in shaping consumer behavior on e-commerce platforms.

Public awareness of environmental issues is increasing, but there is still a gap between ecological understanding and green consumption behavior. This phenomenon is evident in the low interest of local consumers in Suputra Herbal Incense products in Badung Regency, despite the product's strong ecological and cultural value. This condition raises questions about the factors influencing local consumers' green purchasing intentions towards environmentally friendly products. This study uses a quantitative approach with a causal associative design to analyze the main predictors influencing green purchasing intentions. A total of 100 respondents were selected through a purposive sampling technique, namely potential consumers who are related to herbal incense products. The research instrument has been tested for validity and reliability, thus it is suitable for use in data collection. Data analysis was conducted with the help of multiple linear regression using SPSS software to test the research hypotheses. The results show that green brand image, green marketing, and price perception have a positive and significant influence on local consumers' green purchasing intentions. These findings confirm that an environmentally friendly brand image can strengthen consumer trust and interest. In addition, a consistent and authentic green marketing strategy plays a significant role in increasing product appeal. The perception of fair pricing is also a key consideration, as consumers tend to be more accepting of prices when they align with the product's ecological benefits and cultural values. In conclusion, this research provides practical contributions for MSMEs, particularly in designing effective and sustainable green marketing strategies. Efforts to strengthen green brand image, consistently implement environmentally friendly promotions, and foster a perception of fair pricing will encourage increased purchasing intentions among local consumers. Thus, eco-friendly products like Suputra Herbal Incense have the potential to compete more strongly in the increasingly competitive domestic market.

This study aims to determine and analyze the influence of price perception, location, and market atmosphere on consumer purchase intention at Segiri Market in Samarinda City, both partially and simultaneously. The background of this research is based on the phenomenon of declining consumer interest in shopping at traditional markets, which has affected traders' income, even though Segiri Market is the main market with a strategic location in the city center. This phenomenon highlights the challenges traditional markets face in maintaining their appeal amid competition from modern markets and shopping malls. Therefore, it is important to explore factors that may influence consumer purchase intention at traditional markets. This research uses a quantitative approach, with data collection techniques through questionnaires distributed to 100 respondents who are visitors of Segiri Market. The collected data were then analyzed using multiple linear regression with the help of SPSS version 27. The results showed that, partially, the location variable had a significant effect on purchase intention, meaning that a strategic location could enhance the market's appeal to consumers. However, price perception and market atmosphere variables did not show a significant effect on purchase intention on their own. Nevertheless, simultaneously, all three variables (price perception, location, and market atmosphere) had a significant impact on consumer purchase intention. These findings have important implications for market managers and local governments to pay more attention to strategic locations and create a comfortable and attractive market atmosphere. This could increase the appeal of traditional markets, attract more visitors, and ultimately help boost traders' income and support the sustainability of traditional markets as part of the local cultural and economic identity.

This study examines the influence of store atmosphere, service quality, word of mouth (WOM), and price perception on consumer purchasing decisions at Cahya Busana's Canggu branch, a local Balinese MSME specializing in high-quality traditional Balinese clothing for men, women, and children. With an increasing demand for traditional attire, understanding the factors that influence consumer decisions is vital for business growth. The study targeted consumers who had purchased traditional clothing at the Canggu branch, using non-probability sampling to select 110 respondents. The data analysis was conducted through multiple linear regression, assisted by SPSS software, to evaluate the relationship between the independent variables (store atmosphere, service quality, WOM, and price perception) and the dependent variable (consumer purchase decisions). The findings indicate that all four factors—store atmosphere, service quality, WOM, and price perception—positively and significantly impact consumers’ purchasing decisions. Specifically, a pleasant store atmosphere, high-quality service, positive word-of-mouth recommendations, and favorable price perception were found to enhance consumers' likelihood of purchasing traditional Balinese clothing. The results suggest that MSMEs, particularly in the traditional clothing sector, can leverage these factors to boost consumer confidence and drive sales. This study contributes valuable insights for businesses aiming to improve their purchasing processes by focusing on these key variables to increase consumer satisfaction and decision-making. By understanding these influences, Cahya Busana and similar businesses can optimize their strategies to attract and retain customers, ultimately improving their market position.
