Green Marketing Innovation and Eco-Friendly Products on Purchase Intention of Skincare in the Era of Sustainable Economy
type: item
description: This study analyzes the impact of green marketing innovation and eco-friendly product attributes on consumer purchase intention in the skincare industry in the sustainable economy era. A quantitative method was employed by distributing questionnaires to 110 Somethinc customers at Vanilla Skincare & Cosmetic Store, with respondents selected based on their familiarity with experience with the products. The instruments were tested for validity and reliability, and data analysis was performed using multiple linear regression with SPSS 27.The findings show that green marketing has a positive but insignificant influence on purchase intention. Campaigns such as collaboration with LindungiHutan and the EmptyBox program helped strengthen brand awareness but did not substantially affect consumer decisions. In contrast, eco-friendly products demonstrated a positive and significant effect. Factors including quality, the use of natural ingredients, recyclable packaging, and proven skin health benefits were the main drivers of consumer purchase interest. Overall, the research concludes that sustainability and product quality play a greater role than promotional strategies in shaping buying decisions. These results suggest that skincare companies should continue to innovate in eco-friendly product development while reinforcing sustainable marketing to build long-term consumer trust.

The Role of Innovation Capability and Human Resource Management in Realizing Competitive Advantage: Case Study at Angliss Bakehouse Medan City
type: item
description: This research aims to analyze the role of innovation capability and human resource management in realizing Angliss Bakehouse's competitive advantage in Medan City. The quantitative research method with the Structural Equation Modeling approach based on Partial Least Squares (SEM-PLS) was applied to 100 consumer respondents through incidental sampling techniques. The results of the analysis showed that innovation capability had a positive and significant effect on competitive advantage with a path coefficient of 0.335 (p=0.021) and an effect size of f² of 0.143, although it was relatively weak. Meanwhile, human resource management exerted a stronger influence with a path coefficient of 0.554 (p < 0.001) and f² of 0.390. The two variables together explain the 71.7 % variation in competitive advantage (R²=0.717, Q²=0.677), confirming the model's predictive relevance. These findings indicate that innovation needs to be supported by effective HR practices for the consistent implementation of new ideas. The practical implications of this research prompted Angliss Bakehouse to strengthen its R&D team, develop structured training modules, and integrate R&D and HR functions. In addition, the digitization of operational and marketing processes, as well as the implementation of an open innovation framework are proposed as strategies to strengthen the competitive base and encourage sustainable business growth.

This study uses quantitative methods with multiple linear regression analysis. The sample consisted of 60 employees randomly selected based on certain criteria. Data were collected through observation, documentation, and questionnaires.

And the results of the analysis also prove that there is an indirect effect of digitization on financial performance through HR competence (X1 → X2 → Y), with an F-value of 329.463 > F-table 3.16. Overall, the results of this study strengthen the argument that the application of digital technology and the strengthening of human resources capacity is not only a trend, but a strategic need in optimizing the performance of MSMEs in the era of digital transformation.

The Impact of Digital Marketing Strategies and Environmentally Friendly Innovations on Brand Loyalty at The Body Shop Thamrin Plaza
type: item
description: This research is motivated by the low levels of customer involvement and loyalty at The Body Shop Thamrin Plaza Medan, despite the outlet implementing promotions, various programs, and recycling workshops. To address this issue, the study employs a quantitative approach with a sample of 100 customers selected using incidental (convenience) sampling through a structured questionnaire. The data were tested for validity and reliability, were found to meet the classical assumptions of normality and multicollinearity, and were then analyzed using multiple linear regression on SPSS version 25. The t-test shows that digital marketing strategies have a significant positive effect on brand loyalty (β = 0.408, t = 4.703, p < 0.05) while environmentally friendly innovations also have a significant positive effect (β = 0.456, t = 4.765, p < 0.05). The overall F test indicates that both variables collectively explain 58.8% of the variation in brand loyalty (F = 69.278, p < 0.05). These results support all three hypotheses and recommend enhancing digital content personalization as well as regularly scheduling green programs to strengthen relationships with consumers and potentially increase brand loyalty for The Body Shop Thamrin Plaza Medan.

Determinants of Technology Acceptance among Older Adults in Malaysia
type: item
description: This study examines elderly Malaysians’ intention to use QR ordering through the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology, focusing on ease of use, performance expectancy, and social influence. A survey was analysed using partial least squares structural equation modelling. Diagnostics indicated acceptable univariate normality with some multivariate non normality, and checks for common method variance were satisfactory. The measurement model met accepted reliability and validity standards. In the structural model, performance expectancy and ease of use both showed positive effects on behavioural intention, while social influence was not a significant driver. The importance performance map identified performance expectancy as the most influential driver of intention and ease of use as the next most influential, both with room for further enhancement, whereas social influence showed limited importance. Findings suggest that older adults form intention when the system clearly delivers benefits such as faster and more convenient ordering and is simple to operate. Practically, providers should highlight tangible benefits, streamline the journey, and offer clear guidance at the point of use. Limitations include a single service context, a cross sectional design, and reliance on self reported intention. Future research should test causal pathways and examine mediators and moderators such as recognition of benefits, education, and dining context.

The Influence of Digital Marketing and Service Quality on Consumer Interest in Using the Services of BTSA Logistics Medan
type: item
description: A successful marketing plan is essential for piquing customer interest in buying items, pushing businesses to become more competitive with both local and international rivals. BTSA Logistics, an Indonesian shipping firm, began operations in Medan in 2000. According to data on the quantity of containers and revenue, BTSA Logistics Medan has fallen short of its goals. It is believed that this is due to two key reasons: poor service quality and a digital marketing plan that is still underdeveloped. This study included all 608 clients who completed transactions with BTSA Logistics Medan in 2024. The Slovin formula was used to calculate the study's sample size, which was 241 respondents. The study's findings suggest that digital marketing has a limited impact on interest in utilizing BTSA Logistics Medan's services. Service quality has a partial impact on interest in utilizing BTSA Logistics Medan services. Digital marketing and service quality have a combined impact on interest in utilizing BTSA Logistics Medan services.

type: item
description: This study addresses the challenges arising by increasing environmental concerns and packaging waste in fast food outlets by examining the impact of eco-friendly packaging innovations and green brand communication on the green brand image of KFC Asia Megamas Medan.

Facilitating Conditions and Social Influence on Zakat Payment Intention via QRIS: The Moderating Effect of Age at Baitul Mal Aceh
type: item
description: This research examines how facilitating conditions and social influence affect individuals’ intentions to pay zakat via the QRIS platform, with age considered as a moderating variable in the setting of Baitul Mal Aceh. Anchored in the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT), the study identifies the main factors driving the adoption of digital zakat payments. A quantitative approach was employed, using purposive sampling to gather data from 120 respondents. The dataset was analyzed through Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) using the Partial Least Squares (PLS) technique. Results show that both facilitating conditions and social influence have a significant and positive effect on the behavioral intention to adopt QRIS for zakat payments. Moreover, age functions as a moderator: younger participants are more responsive to facilitating conditions, whereas older individuals are more influenced by social pressure. These insights emphasize that successful implementation of QRIS in zakat collection depends on the interaction of enabling infrastructure, social dynamics, and generational differences factors that zakat management institutions should account for in policy and practice.

Truly Sharia Compliant? A Critical Analysis of Hotel Facilities and Management in Banda Aceh
type: item
description: The purpose of this study is to analyze the facilities and management at the Kumala Hotel in Banda Aceh related to the implementation of sharia principles based on the DSN-MUI Fatwa No. 108/DSN-MUI/X/2016. The background is the increasing need for Muslim tourists for accommodation that is in line with sharia in the development of hotel concepts in Aceh. The method used is a qualitative approach that uses data collection techniques through interviews, observation and documentation. The results show that the Kumala Hotel has provided halal food, prayer room and prohibit immoral acts and pornography. From the management side, sharia principles are attempted in service, human resources, and finance. However, obstacles that arise are the limited human resources who understand sharia in more depth and less than optimal supervision. It is hoped that the results of this research will be able to contribute and references in the development of sharia hotels in Indonesia.

Customer Strategy Transformation Through CRM Innovation And Product Quality: Its Impact On Loyalty At Nou Coffee Shop
type: item
description: Nou Coffee is a local coffee shop in Medan adopts a modern, fast, efficient, and digitally integrated concept to deliver high-quality coffee. However, consumer loyalty has recently declined, indicated by fewer repeat visits and reduced digital interactions. The implementation of Customer Relationship Management (CRM) has often been less effective due to its generalized interactions, highlighting the need for more personalized, data-driven communication to strengthen relationships with consumers. In addition, product quality remains a key factor in building loyalty, including aspects such as taste, consistency, hygiene, raw materials, and comfort. Although Nou Coffee already uses high-quality coffee beans and a digital system, some customers perceive the taste and presentation consistency as unstable. This indicates that product quality is still the primary key to maintaining customer satisfaction and loyalty, even more important than technological convenience. The study employed a descriptive quantitative method. The population consisted of all consumers who had made purchases at Nou Coffee, totaling 10,122 customers. Using Slovin’s formula with a 95% confidence level and a 5% margin of error, the sample size was determined to be 385 respondents. The conclusion drawn from this research is that both partially and simultaneously, Customer Relationship Management (CRM) and Product Quality significantly influence consumer loyalty at Nou Coffee Shop.

From Embarrassment to Brand Hate: A Netnography of Negative Emotions, Detachment, and Consumer Arrogance in Foreign F&B in Aceh
type: item
description: This study examines how brand embarrassment escalates into detachment and hate among Acehnese consumers toward foreign F&B brands perceived to be affiliated with Israel. Using qualitative netnography, we observed public discourse across Instagram, TikTok, X, Facebook, YouTube, Google Maps reviews, and food-delivery apps from July 2024 to August 2025. The corpus comprised 512 discourse units and eight focal incidents; 378 units explicitly invoked geopolitical ties. Event-centered coding shows primary triggers were geopolitical affiliation/solidarity (41.3%) and corporate stance/donation controversies (16.1%), followed by service humiliation (19.6%), status threat/face loss (10.3%), and pricing opacity (7.7%); halal-certification uncertainty appeared mainly as a secondary co-argument (12.2% of the geopolitical subset). Embarrassment—direct (in-store) or vicarious (online)—was typically followed by early detachment (unfollow/avoidance/switching within <48 hours) and, when coupled with moralized framing and slow/defensive corporate replies, escalated into brand hate with boycott calls (71.8% of geopolitical-triggered units). Consumer entitlement cues (16.4%) acted as an escalator, prolonging threads. Fast, empathic responses and clear statements about local franchise autonomy shortened escalation. The study contributes an episode-based process model and offers a practical playbook for risk monitoring and recovery in value-sensitive markets.

type: item
description: Purpose. This study examines how Green Consumption Awareness influences Repurchase Intention on e-commerce platforms in Vietnam, focusing on the mediating role of Green Shipping Packaging. It aims to identify the behavioral mechanism through which consumers’ environmental awareness is converted into platform loyalty. Designs. A cross-sectional survey was administered to Vietnamese online shoppers; after data cleaning, 282 usable responses were analyzed. The study used exploratory factor analysis and confirmatory assessment, then applied partial least squares structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) with bootstrapping (5,000 resamples) to test direct and indirect effects. Findings. Results show that Green Consumption Awareness is positively associated with Repurchase Intention, and Green Shipping Packaging partially mediates this relationship. Structural results further indicate that Subjective Norm strongly predicts demand for green packaging (β = .653, t = 11.34), while Perception shows a small negative effect on packaging demand (β = −.155, t = −3.12); Attitude was not significant. Demand for green packaging strongly predicts Repurchase Intention (β = .758, t = 32.75). Practical implications. E-commerce platforms and 3PLs should prioritize visible, credible green shipping solutions (e.g., recyclable/reusable parcel systems, transparent labeling) to convert consumer awareness into repeat purchases and support national Net Zero goals. Originality/value. This research isolates shipping packaging as a tangible mediating mechanism between environmental awareness and repurchase behavior in e-commerce—an underexplored nexus—providing actionable insights for firms and policy makers in emerging market Keywords: E-commerce, Green Consumption Awareness, Green Shipping Packaging, Repurchase Intention.

The Influence of Brand Image and Sustainability Awareness on Customer Loyalty at Miniso Medan Mall
type: item
description: This study aims to analyze the Influence of Brand Image and Sustainability Awareness on Customer Loyalty at Miniso Medan Mall. The research method used is a quantitative approach by distributing questionnaires to 91 respondents who are customers of Miniso Medan Mall. Data were analyzed using validity tests, reliability tests, multiple linear regression, t-tests, F-tests, and the coefficient of determination with the help of SPSS Version 27. The results showed that Brand Image had a positive and significant effect on Customer Loyalty, while Sustainability Awareness had a positive but insignificant effect on customer loyalty. Simultaneously, both variables have a significant effect on customer loyalty with a coefficient of determination of 62.9%.

Why Do Entrepreneurially Trained Graduates Choose Employment? A Phenomenological Inquiry in Aceh Higher Education
type: item
description: This phenomenological study investigates why entrepreneurially trained graduates choose employment rather than founding ventures in the Aceh higher-education context. Using Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA), we conducted semi-structured interviews with 12 alumni who completed entrepreneurship courses/competitions/incubation yet currently work as employees. Analysis generated five superordinate themes: (1) temporary competitive euphoria—competitions boost confidence, networks, and credentials but fade without aftercare; (2) stability rationality and risk aversion—employment is framed as pragmatic adaptation to income needs, market uncertainty, and family obligations; (3) campus-to-market ecosystem gaps—a “missing middle” between pitch events and real operations (financing, compliance, distribution); (4) hybrid career identity and skill transfer—entrepreneurial skills persist via intrapreneurship and low-risk side projects; and (5) temporal opportunity and momentum loss—post-graduation delays narrow windows and disperse teams. We conclude that employment is not an antithesis to entrepreneurship but a meaningful, risk-managing pathway within constrained ecosystems. Practical implications include building a curriculum-to-venture pipeline, staged evidence-gated funding, 6–12-month transition fellowships, one-door compliance/production clinics, anchor-demand partnerships, and formal intrapreneurship tracks. The study reframes the intention–behavior gap as employment-oriented adaptation and suggests longitudinal, multi-site research to test and refine this pathway.

Opportunities and Challenges for Islamic Microfinance Institutions in Aceh
type: item
description: This article examines the challenges and opportunities for Islamic Microfinance Institutions (LKMS) in supporting the strengthening of the Islamic financial system in Aceh following the implementation of Qanun No. 11 of 2018 concerning Islamic Financial Institutions. This study employs a qualitative approach, incorporating in-depth interviews, observations, and secondary data analysis of LKMS financial reports and institutional documents. The research findings indicate that regulatory support and the socio-religious context in Aceh create strategic opportunities for LKMS through a captive market, community preference for halal transactions, and the need for financing in the real sector, especially agriculture, fisheries, and MSMEs. However, the research also reveals significant challenges, including limited human resource capacity, weak capital, low Islamic financial literacy, and the continued dominance of loan shark practices at the community level. Furthermore, government programs that have not been integrated with the LKMS ecosystem add to the complexity of improving the competitiveness of these institutions. This study concludes that the success of LKMS in Aceh cannot rely solely on the existence of regulations, but requires strategies for institutional strengthening, product diversification, digitalisation of services, and increased Islamic financial literacy. The implications of this research emphasise the need for regional government policy support and collaboration with Baitul Mal and socio-religious institutions to create an inclusive and sustainable Islamic financial ecosystem.

How Sustainability Awareness Shapes Consumer Purchase Intentions through Attitudes and Perceived Value in the Thrift Market in Indonesia
type: item
description: The fashion industry is a rapidly growing economic sector, but it has a significant impact on the environment. The trend of thrift fashion or buying secondhand clothes has emerged as an alternative form of sustainable consumption that supports the circular economy. This study aims to examine the relationship between sustainability awareness, attitude toward thrift products, perceived value, and consumer purchase intentions in the context of fashion reuse in Indonesia. This study uses a conceptual literature review approach by synthesizing previous research results in the field of sustainable fashion and consumer behavior. The conceptual model is built based on Theory of Planned Behavior (Ajzen, 1991) and Value–Attitude–Behavior Framework (Homer & Kahle, 1988). The synthesis results show that sustainability awareness does not directly influence purchase intention, but rather through two main mediating pathways: (1) positive attitude toward thrift products as an affective pathway, and (2) perceived value towards the functional, emotional, and social benefits of the product as a cognitive pathway. These two mediators explain how environmental awareness shapes behavioral tendencies without the need to involve external variables such as social norms. Theoretically, this study reinforces our understanding of sustainable consumer behavior. In practical terms, the results provide guidance for thrift fashion MSMEs to emphasize sustainability, quality, and ethical image in their marketing strategies in order to encourage more environmentally friendly consumption behavior.

type: item
description: This research is motivated by the challenges in ensuring customer satisfaction with marketplace services, which are still hindered by gaps in users' digital literacy, the complexity of distribution channels, and various conditions of logistics infrastructure in different regions. This study aims to evaluate the extent to which technology usage strategies and the effectiveness of distribution channels can contribute to increasing consumer satisfaction levels in marketplace based on service offerings.

The research is grounded in the challenges of modern retail competition with the rise of e-commerce and the shift in consumer behavior toward digitalization, which highlight the need for effective CRM and promotional strategies. A quantitative survey method was applied, using primary data collected from 96 purposively selected respondents through a Likert-scale questionnaire. Data were analyzed using multiple linear regression, along with validity and reliability tests, classical assumption testing, t-test, F-test, and coefficient of determination. Results show that CRM has a positive but insignificant partial effect on loyalty, while sales promotion has a positive and significant partial effect. Together, CRM and sales promotion significantly influence loyalty with a contribution of 40.7%, leaving the remainder to other factors. The findings highlight the importance of consistent sales promotion and optimized CRM to enhance sustainable customer loyalty.
