Abstract
The development of
digital technology has significantly changed marketing activities and consumer
behavior, particularly in e-commerce transactions. Digital marketing strategies
such as digital advertising, social media, and customer testimonials play an
important role in influencing consumer purchase intention. This study aims to
analyze the influence of digital advertising, social media, and testimonials on
consumer purchase intention on the Bukalapak e-commerce platform. The research
uses a quantitative approach with a causal research design. The population
consists of students of the Faculty of Economics at Universitas Prima Indonesia
who have used the Bukalapak platform. The sample size was determined using the
Lemeshow formula, resulting in 96 respondents selected through accidental
sampling. Data were collected through questionnaires and analyzed using
multiple linear regression with SPSS. The results show that digital
advertising, social media, and testimonials have a significant partial effect
on purchase intention. Simultaneously, these three variables also significantly
influence purchase intention. The coefficient of determination shows that they explain
46.8% of the variation in purchase intention. These findings highlight the
importance of effective digital marketing strategies to enhance consumer
interest in e-commerce platforms.
