This present study was conducted to advance an understanding of market orientation concept, by exploring the relationship between market orientation, competitive strategy and business performance in a sample of small- and medium-sized companies in Indonesia. A quantitative research method was adopted to investigate the relationship between the variables. A total of 200 questionnaires were distributed, from which 182 usable questionnaire were obtained (91% response rate). Correlational and regression analyses were used to examine the relationships between market orientation and the other variables measured in the study. It was found that market orientation had both direct and indirect positive influence on business performance. All three dimensions of market orientation (i.e., customer orientation, competitor orientation and inter-functional coordination) showed a simple linear relationship to the business performance, and the inter-functional coordination had the strongest association with business performance.

This research examines the influence of Social Media Marketing Activities (SMMA) on consumer behaviour towards local fashion brands in Indonesia. The study focuses on five key SMMA dimensions: interactivity, informativeness, personalization, trendiness, and word-of-mouth (WOM). It extends previous research by investigating the moderating effect of customer engagement levels on the relationships between SMMA dimensions, consumer attitudes, brand experiences, and purchase intentions. A quantitative approach was employed through an online survey distributed to 878 social media users who actively follow and purchase from local fashion brands. Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modelling (PLS-SEM) was used to analyse the data and identify the influence of SMMA dimensions on consumer attitudes, experiences, purchase intentions, and the moderating effect of customer engagement levels. The findings aim to identify the influence of each SMMA dimension on consumer attitudes, experiences, and purchase intentions, quantify the relative impact of each SMMA dimension on these consumer behaviour factors, determine the SMMA dimension with the strongest influence on consumer response, and investigate the moderating effect of customer engagement levels on the relationships between SMMA and the other variables. These findings provide valuable guidance for local fashion brands in developing effective social media marketing strategies to enhance customer engagement and drive purchase intentions.
