This study aimed to analyze the influence of price and brand image on Mixue consumer loyalty in Yogyakarta.  Employing a quantitative approach with 50 respondents, data were collected through questionnaires and analyzed using multiple linear regression.  Validity and reliability tests demonstrated a robust research instrument. Classical assumptions were met.  The F-test indicated a significant simultaneous effect of price and brand image on consumer loyalty (p < 0.05).  However, the t-test showed that only brand image had a significant partial effect (p < 0.05), while the effect of price was insignificant (p > 0.05).  This finding has implications for Mixue's marketing strategy in Yogyakarta, emphasizing the importance of a strong brand image.

This paper examines the influence of financial education on personal financial management practices of Generation Z. A quantitative method with a survey approach was used, involving 30 Generation Z respondents (aged 17-25 years) through questionnaires and simple linear regression analysis. The results of the study indicate a significant influence of financial education on wise financial management practices. Generation Z with adequate financial education tends to be more able to budget, save, invest, and avoid impulsive debt. Conversely, the lack of financial education makes them vulnerable to unwise financial decisions. This paper highlights the importance of integrating financial education into the curriculum and self-development programs to improve literacy and healthy financial practices among Generation Z. This study also discusses the challenges faced by Generation Z in managing finances in the digital era, such as a consumptive lifestyle influenced by social media and e-commerce.

This study aims to evaluate the impact of product innovation and product quality on consumer purchasing choices for local skincare products Facetology. The methodology used in this study is a quantitative approach and information collection is carried out through questionnaires to 104 Facetology product users in Bekasi City. The results of the analysis show that product innovation and product quality simultaneously have a positive and significant impact on purchasing decisions, both gradually and simultaneously. This is evidenced by the t-test, F-test, and Pearson correlation, which show that product innovation has a greater impact than product quality. The coefficient of determination (R²) value of 0.688 indicates that these two independent variables can explain 68.8% of the variation in purchasing decisions. This finding indicates that companies need to continue to innovate and maintain product quality so that consumer purchasing interest can increase.

The high rate of employee turnover in the café business, along with café Sapa Seduh's record-high turnover of 40% in the past year, prompted the research. The study used a quantitative methodology with an explanatory focus. With complete sampling as the method of selection, the population comprised all eighteen permanent employees. A validated and reliable Likert-scale questionnaire was used to gather data. Multiple linear regression in SPSS version 26 was used to analyse the data. The findings indicated that there was a significant partial effect of the workload variable on turnover intention (significance value 0.000 < 0.05), but no significant partial effect of the compensation variable (significance value 0.481 > 0.05). Nevertheless, the combination of workload and compensation had a notable impact on turnover intention (significance value 0.000 < 0.05), as determined by an Adjusted R Square value of 0.851. These results show that employees' intention to leave is most affected by workload. Consequently, in order to lower turnover rates, management should prioritise the equitable management of staff workloads.
