This study aims to explain how the role of social media in marketing MSME products during the Covid 19 pandemic in DKI Jakarta. This research method is qualitative by using phenomenological predictions. The results of this study explain that MSMEs are more dominant in using the TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, and WhatsApp applications in promoting their products because they are easier to implement and can attract more consumer interest through interesting videos and photos. Therefore, social media provides a good prospect for increasing the sales of MSME products in DKI Jakarta which is experiencing the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. This is because the digital marketing system provides an online buying and selling platform, in order to facilitate the ordering and purchasing process. So that consumers can interact with MSME owners to make transactions directly. The results of this study suggest that MSME have to understand and add insight into the importance of digital marketing strategies to support the sustainability of MSME businesses. Digital marketing is an opportunity that can be developed to achieve maximum business benefits during the COVID-19 pandemic.

The Covid-19 virus pandemic has destroyed the most important side of the economy, namely supply and demand. From the supply side, many Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) have experienced a reduction in activity due to the policy of limiting social interaction which has resulted in the cessation of the production process, and from the demand side, reduced demand for goods and services has resulted in many MSMEs unable to maximize profits. One of the economic recovery strategies is to connect with the digital ecosystem, by digitizing the market so that business actors can continue to carry out their business activities even in the midst of the Covid-19 pandemic. The goal to be achieved in this activity is to increase the capacity of MSMEs and Hutakalo village people and their sales through digital marketing strategies. The methods used to achieve these goals are socialization and training. Through outreach activities, MSMEs together with the people of Hutakalo village were given general material on digital marketing strategies and how the Hutakalo village's MSMEs and communities were able to increase the value of their business sales by using digital marketing strategies. Meanwhile, training activities are carried out to improve the skills of MSMEs and Hutakalo villagers in using the Marketplace application to market their business products, which is supported by the ability to make product photos to make them look attractive to be marketed.

This research focuses primarily on Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) in Malaysia, with special reference to Perak State. It is widely recognised that the adoption and use of digital marketing applications change the ways in which organizations conduct their activities and represent a critical business opportunity for MSMEs. This opportunity will only be realised by MSMEs if, and when, digital marketing is applied to their organizations. This, therefore, creates a requirement to understand the factors that influence MSMEs in making the adoption decision. The research related to such factors is scarce, not least because the technologies are relatively new. By using the Technology-Organization-Environment (TOE) framework, this study, therefore, attempted to understand the predictors/factors influencing the decision making by MSMEs to adopt digital marketing applications. It employed a quantitative approach to meet the research objectives. A survey involving 369 MSMEs in Perak State was conducted to examine empirically the preliminary model. The survey data were analysed using Logistic Regression (LR) technique. Of the factors examined, technological and organizational contexts were found to have a significant influence on MSMEs’ decisions to adopt digital marketing applications. These findings have important implications and value for the research community, MSMEs and policymakers in terms of formulating improved strategies for digital marketing adoption and applications. The resulting research model proposed in this paper/article can improve these stakeholders’understandings on why some MSMEs have chosen to adopt digital marketing technologies, while other MSMEs which face similar market conditions have not.
