The development of the globalization era encourages the dissemination of information and beauty trends from South Korea in Indonesia. To be accepted by the Indonesian market, South Korean beauty companies need to consider the acculturation aspects, because it is one of the primary determinant factors of consumer purchase decisions in a foreign country product. The purpose of this study is to analyze the effect of acculturation on global consumer culture towards purchase decisions of South Korean skincare and cosmetic products, identify the factors that influence the consumers’ purchase decision, and develop marketing recommendations for South Korean beauty companies. To validate the hypotheses from previous studies and answer the research questions, a quantitative approach by the online survey was conducted by 250 respondents of women in Indonesia from generations x, y, and z who have purchased South Korean skincare and cosmetic products by a minimum of past six months, and PLS-SEM was used to analyze the relationship between the variables. The findings indicate that acculturation influences customers’ purchase decisions towards South Korean skincare and cosmetic products through several variables. It is found that cosmopolitanism has a significant influence on global consumption orientation and perceived value. Similarly, global mass exposure and self-identification with GCC have a significant impact on materialism. Materialism then has a significant impact on perceived value, which in turn has a significant influence on brand attitude. Brand attitudes then have a significant influence on purchase intention, which in turn has a significant influence on the purchase decision. The results suggested that South Korean beauty companies should maintain product quality, emphasize the products’ benefit and function, and enhance the advertising competitive advantage. This study is expected to enhance marketers understanding of how companies could improve consumers’ purchase decisions through understanding the acculturation between these two countries.

The emergence of social marketing campaign strategy has encouraged businesses to adopt it as their marketing strategy. However, although nowadays companies are continuously creating unique social marketing campaigns, many of them end up backfiring. Therefore, companies should create campaigns that are able to draw customers to participate and create purchase decisions. Dove brings a campaign that promotes women’s self-esteem through brand building and serves dual goals to make women feel more beautiful and sell more products, called Dove Campaign for Real Beauty. This study aims to analyze how the campaign affects customers’ purchase decisions toward the products. From the study, the factors in the campaign that affect customers’ purchase decisions toward the products will be identified. Finally, this study aims to develop marketing recommendations for the campaign to affect customers’ purchase decisions toward the products. This study uses semi-structured interviews and online survey methods to collect data and uses open coding and PLS-SEM to analyze the relationship between the variables. The results indicate that positive word-of-mouth significantly affects consumer-campaign (CC) identification, perceived cause-related marketing (CRM) motive significantly affects emotional attachment, and affective reaction, brand trust, and brand community significantly affect customers’ purchase decision through attitude toward the campaign, attitude toward the brand, and purchase intention.

Purpose Grounded on the value-based adoption model and innovation diffusion theory, this study examined consumer purchase decisions of mobile Global Positioning System (GPS) navigation apps. In addition, this study also investigated the moderating role that perceived availability of free substitutes (PAFS) plays in the relationship between perceived value and purchase intention. The paper aims to discuss these issues. Design/methodology/approach Data collected from 219 mobile users were analyzed against the research model using the partial least squares approach. Findings The results showed that compatibility, relative advantage, perceived enjoyment, perceived cost (positively), and complexity (negatively) influenced these users’ value perceptions and purchase decisions. Furthermore, PAFS significantly weakened the positive relationship between perceived value and purchase intentions. Practical implications Based on these findings, the authors provide practical suggestions for mobile app developers to increase mobile app sales. This study also helps advance knowledge of mobile internet marketing. Originality/value This study is a pioneering effort in explaining consumer purchase intentions in the context of mobile GPS navigation app.

Purpose of the Study: The aim of this paper is to examine the relation between Muslim women customer offense caused due to Islamic advertising of halal cosmetic products in Malaysia. Methodology: The violation of Islamic ethics on the advertisement of halal cosmetic products and purchase intention was examined through a survey that included 110 Muslim women respondents in Malaysia who used cosmetics. The items used for the operationalization of variables were based on the advertising ethics provided by Quran and Sunnah. The current study confirms that irrespective of their religion, women find those advertisements offensive that do not abide by Islamic ethics, which are universal in nature. Based on the correlation results, this study reveals that violation of Islamic advertising ethics (honesty, racism, sexism, intention, and language) has a correlation with purchase intention. A multiple regression analysis was highlighted and it was found that racism, sexism, intention, and language have negative and significant influence on purchase intention. Only one variable did not have a significant influence on purchase intention of halal cosmetic products in Malaysia. Results: Sexism plays the most critical role in influencing consumers’ intention that makes them avoid buying halal cosmetic products. Furthermore, customer offense created due to violation of ethics has a negative impact on the purchase intention of halal cosmetic products. If advertisers want to attract customers in Malaysia and retain them, then they must avoid creating customer offense by following Islamic advertising ethics. Implications: This study will be beneficial to marketers, advertisers, and companies in developing their advertising and marketing strategies for halal cosmetic products. In addition, this study has implemented the study of Islamic advertising ethic violations and purchase intentions of halal cosmetic products.
