The main purpose of this research is to analyze the influence of strategic orientation on firm performance mediated by social media orientation at MSMEs. Strategic orientation includes market orientation, entrepreneurial orientation, technological orientation, and learning orientation. The design used in this research is hypothesis testing by using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM). The respondent population of this research is all owners or managers of MSMEs located in DKI Jakarta area and have been running their business for at least 2 (two) years, and have used social media in their business. This study used a sample of respondents. The sampling was done by using non-probability sampling technique with purposive sampling method with 321 respondents. The results of this study show that only learning orientation has a direct effect on firm performance, while for market orientation and entrepreneurial orientation requires mediation role from social media orientation, and for technological orientation either directly or after mediation by social media orientation still has no effect significant to firm performance. The variable that has the greatest influence on firm performance after mediated by social media orientation is the entrepreneurial orientation. The results of this study provide insight for MSMEs practitioners, in order to use their strategic activities to increase the use of social media so as to improve the firm performance. This study has limitations, including not detailing the construct dimension of social media orientation into two dimensions of visibility and Sales and business development, and the sample of respondents from this study is only the perpetrators of MSMEs located in the area of DKI Jakarta. This can be a suggestion for further research. The model proposed in this study is to add the role of social media orientation as a mediation variable in the relationship between strategic orientation with firm performance.

Purpose The purpose of this study is to provide new practical and theoretical insights into how small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) adjust and further develop business competencies, innovations and performance by using market orientation, learning orientation behaviors and entrepreneurial orientation. Design/methodology/approach The data was collected from manufacturing SMEs of textile products that had a number of employees between 5 and 99 people in the province of Bali, Indonesia, in 2016. Bali province was chosen as a research location because Bali was one of the tourism centers in Indonesia and even in the world was considered suitable for this research. It was because it had textile product industries that contributed in the fulfillment of the needs of tourism clothing, national economy, the fulfillment of fashion needs and foreign exchange contributors from non-oil exports (Industry and Trade Service of Bali). Findings Based on the results of descriptive and inferential analysis that has been conducted, it can be concluded that the answer to the problems and objectives that have been determined is market orientation, learning orientation and entrepreneurial orientation affect business performance through knowledge competence and innovation directly and its influence is significantly positive. But market orientation, learning orientation and entrepreneurial orientation do not directly have a significant positive effect on innovation through knowledge competence. Market orientation, learning orientation and entrepreneurship orientation indirectly have a significant positive effect on business performance through knowledge and innovation competencies. Originality/value The lack of studies in the existing literature underscores the potential contribution of this subsequent study. The novelty of the research is first to develop a concept of learning orientation that is linked to competence of knowledge, which this link has not been much expressed in the context of industry SMEs; second, to build the concept of innovation development of small and medium-sized industry of textile industry based on market orientation by strengthening the mediation role of competence of knowledge.

The primary purpose of this article was to examine the mediating effects of market orientation on the relationship between entrepreneurial orientation and financial performance. The mediation effects of market orientation on the relationship between learning orientation and financial performance were also investigated. One hundred and seventy-four valid survey questionnaires were collected from Korean entrepreneurs, who were searching for angel investments or business consultants for growth. Our unique research design allowed us to test the mediating effects of the dimensions of market orientation between the dimensions of entrepreneurial orientation and financial performance. The most important research results are as follows. First, the innovative-proactiveness dimension of entrepreneurial orientation has a statistically significant effect on financial performance, but the risk-taking propensity dimension does not significantly affect financial performance. Second, the customer orientation dimension of market orientation fully mediates the relationships between innovative-proactiveness and financial performance. Second, the competitor orientation dimension of market orientation shows a partial mediating effect on the relationship between innovative-proactiveness and financial performance. Third, learning orientation does not significantly affect financial performance. To increase financial performance, growth-seeking entrepreneurs need to improve customer orientation, competitor orientation, and innovative-proactiveness.

In this study, we examine the ways in which three strategic orientations associated with the firm — entrepreneurial orientation (EO), market orientation (MO), and learning orientation (LO) — affect performance. We hypothesize and test a moderated-mediation framework relating these constructs using a panel dataset of large US retail firms over five years. Our primary finding is that LO mediates the impact of MO on performance and this relationship is strengthened under the moderating influence of EO. In other words, LO acts as a conduit through which the performance effect of MO arises and EO complements MO in terms of impact on performance.

Firms develop and use multiple strategic orientations. However, the investigations considering more than one strategic orientation are scant and have paid scant attention to the singular context of family firms, despite the growing evidence of their special strategic behavior. To cover these research gaps, we analyze the combined effects of three strategic orientations (mainly, entrepreneurial orientation, learning orientation, and market orientation) on family firm’s performance, by comparing family firms and non-family firms from Spain and Portugal. Our results show that the entrepreneurial orientation is the strategic orientation with higher impact on family firm performance, followed by market orientation, so, our work offers family firms some insights to an improved performance. In addition our work contributes to literature by corroborating the idea of strategic equifinality.
