Unit-linked insurance (PAYDI), Indonesia's top-selling life insurance product, has driven industrial growth in the last two decades through effective agent marketing. However, its complexity, blending protection, and investment have drawn criticism for consumers’ detriment and increasing complaints about insurance agent practices. This study aimed to achieve critical objectives by examining consumer perceptions of agent-provided service quality and distinguishing between active and lapsed policyholders as a measure of loyalty. It also seeks to construct a model that delineates the impact of service quality on consumer satisfaction and loyalty with information asymmetry as a moderating variable. This study used a cross-sectional research design, and gathered data through electronic questionnaires distributed to PAYDI insurance consumers. Purposive sampling was used to select participants, resulting in 159 respondents meeting the study’s criteria. Data analysis was conducted using Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modelling (PLS-SEM). These findings underscore the critical influence of agent reliability and empathy on consumer satisfaction with information asymmetry emerging as a key moderator between satisfaction and loyalty. These results imply that reinforcing agent training in reliability, empathy, and efforts to minimize information asymmetry significantly enhances consumer satisfaction and loyalty in the insurance sector. This research suggests that companies should develop a Key Performance Indicator (KPI) and incentives for agents to enhance both customer acquisition and post-purchase services, ensure transparent information sharing, and set measurable satisfaction targets such as the Net Promoter Score (NPS). Future studies should focus on operational diversity and alternative proxies of firms.

Generation Z is currently the largest consumer in Indonesia; thus their values and priorities could lead to changes in consumption patterns and societal norms. This study examined the influence of income, self-esteem, and impulsive buying behavior of H&M products in Gen-Z. This research was conducted using a quantitative cross-sectional with a predictive design. Research respondents were obtained through a non-random accidental sampling of 374 Gen-Z who had made unplanned purchases of clothes from the H&M brand at least once in the past month. Data analysis was performed using correlation and multiple regression tests. The results showed that income and self-esteem could be used as predictors of impulse buying behavior. However, the income itself showed no contribution when self-esteem was controlled. Research implies that monitoring self-esteem and using interventions to increase self-esteem could help control impulse buying behavior that individuals, especially Gen-Z, usually do.
Z 世代是印尼目前最大的消费者，因此他们的价值观和优先事项可能会导致消费模式和社会规范发生变化。本研究探讨了收入、自尊和冲动性购买 H&M 产品行为对 Z 世代的影响。本研究采用定量横截面预测设计。研究对象是通过对 374 名在过去一个月中至少有一次计划外购买 H&M 品牌服装的 "新新人类 "进行非随机抽样获得的。数据分析采用了相关检验和多元回归检验。结果显示，收入和自尊可作为冲动购买行为的预测因素。然而，在控制自尊的情况下，收入本身并无影响。研究表明，监控自尊和采取干预措施提高自尊有助于控制个人（尤其是 Z 世代）通常会出现的冲动性购买行为。

The transformational era has given rise to a new generation that is presumed to have different preferences than the previous generation. The proliferation of coffee shops has expanded consumer alternatives for purchasing decisions. This research aims to identify and segment Millennial and Zoomer consumers based on demographic, behavioral, and psychographic characteristics in the purchase of coffee beverages at coffee shops. The research employed a non-probability sampling method, specifically judgmental sampling, with a sample size of 180 coffee shop consumers in Madiun City. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, independent sample t-tests, and K-means clustering. The research findings indicate that millennials and Zoomer consumers tend to be dominated by females, mostly visiting once a week for leisure and prioritizing taste quality. There are significant differences between Millennial and Zoomer consumers in terms of promotional media attributes, WiFi/power outlet availability, live music entertainment, ordering process, and payment options. Based on consumer segmentation analysis, three segments were identified: coffee enthusiasts, adventurous coffee connoisseurs, and consumers who prioritize coffee beverage quality. The managerial implications for coffee shops involve directing marketing strategies specifically towards the adventurous taste segment and emphasizing quality by prioritizing innovation and differentiation in serving high-quality coffee beverages.
转型时代催生了新的一代人，他们的喜好被认为与上一代人不同。咖啡店的激增扩大了消费者购买决策的选择范围。本研究旨在根据消费者在咖啡店购买咖啡饮品时的人口、行为和心理特征，对千禧一代和 Zoomer 消费者进行识别和细分。研究采用了非概率抽样法，特别是判断抽样法，样本量为马迪恩市 180 名咖啡店消费者。 数据分析采用了描述性统计、独立样本 t 检验和 K 均值聚类。研究结果表明，"千禧一代 "和 "Zoomer "的消费者往往以女性为主，她们大多每周去一次咖啡店休闲，并把口味质量放在首位。千禧一代和 Zoomer 消费者在宣传媒体属性、WiFi/电源插座可用性、现场音乐娱乐、点餐流程和付款方式等方面存在明显差异。根据消费者细分分析，确定了三个细分群体：咖啡爱好者、喜欢冒险的咖啡鉴赏家和注重咖啡饮料质量的消费者。这对咖啡店的管理启示包括：将市场营销战略特别针对具有冒险精神的消费者，并通过优先考虑提供高品质咖啡饮料的创新和差异化来强调质量。

Bank Tabungan Negara (BTN), a state-owned company, is committed to the government to expand access to capital for all MSMEs. Bank BTN MSME, loan distribution performance, is still low and unable to meet the targets set by the government and regulators, so further studies need to be carried out through market research. This research aims to analyze the marketing mix on the decision to use BTN MSME loan products and formulate loan distribution strategies by improving the marketing mix in connection with the low performance of Bank BTN's MSME loan distribution. The sampling technique used convenience sampling involving 100 respondents, who were then analyzed using SEM-PLS and Importance Performance Analysis (IPA) matrix to determine priorities for improving the marketing mix. The results show a significant effect of the marketing mix variables product, price, place, promotion, people, and process on the decision to use a BTN MSME loan, while the physical evidence does not have a significant effect. There are five indicators of marketing mix variables that take in the high-priority quadrant of the IPA Matrix: price suitability, price affordability, processing time, convenience, and online channels. Based on research results, Bank BTN is advised to prioritize improvement strategies on these five variable indicators to increase BTN MSME loan distribution.

This study investigated the effect of tour companies’ service quality on tourists’ intention to revisit tourism destinations in the Arusha region. The general objective of this study is to examine the effect of tour companies’ service quality on tourists’ revisit intentions in Arusha tourist destinations. This study used a cross-sectional research design and employed a survey as the data-collection method. Respondents were selected using simple random sampling; 384 respondents were included in this study. Questionnaires were used to collect data from respondents at Arusha tourist destinations. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and a binary logistic regression model. The findings revealed that tangibles, responsiveness, and assurance had positive indices, implying that tourists were delighted by the service provided. The study establishes a positive relationship between tangibles, responsiveness, and assurance dimensions and tourists' revisit intentions, with a specific emphasis on the statistically significant connections of tangibles and responsiveness at p < 0.05, emphasizing the need to enhance these aspects to promote repeat visits to Arusha tourist destinations. However, assurance was found to have an insignificant relationship with tourists’ intentions to revisit. Therefore, tour companies, government entities, and tourism authorities should focus on improving tangibles and responsiveness dimensions to enhance tourists' intention to revisit.

The lack of consumer disloyalty in the shopping process, especially amid Shopee's dominance as a market leader, is the focal point of this research. Shopee managed to achieve top rankings in shaping customer loyalty in the online marketplace. This study aimed to identify several factors that affect customer loyalty on the Shopee platform through trust, good service at Shopee, and satisfaction. Considers related to the important role e-satisfaction plays as a mediating variable in understanding the impact of e-trust and e-service quality on Shopee customer loyalty. A quantitative research design was used, with 100 respondents receiving a questionnaire via Google Form, using simple random sampling techniques in data collection. Data analysis was performed through Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) using the SMART PLS application. Research findings show that the impact of e-trust on Shopee consumer loyalty is quite significant and that the quality of e-service also significantly impacts Shopee customer e-loyalty. In contrast, e-satisfaction is a mediator that significantly affects customers’ e-loyalty levels. Managers must focus on improving the quality of e-services for customer satisfaction. This can include continuous measurement and improvement in website consistency, response speed, and information availability.

Reading food labels is one way consumers learn about the products they buy. This study determined the influence of knowledge and risk perception on food label reading behavior among adolescents in rural and urban Bogor. This study had a cross-sectional design. Purposive sampling was used to gather 132 participants, including 66 adolescents in rural areas and 66 adolescents in urban areas. The results showed that more than half of the participants had moderate knowledge of food labeling. The knowledge of the rural and urban samples was the same. Operational risk was the most perceived risk for both the rural and urban samples. There were no significant differences in all dimensions of risk perception between rural and urban youths. The average food label reading behavior score in rural areas was higher than that in urban areas. Psychological risk perception influences food label-reading behavior in rural areas. Overall, functional risk perception influenced food label-reading behavior. Based on these results, it is necessary to increase education on the importance of food labels to build good risk perception so that food label reading behavior increases.
