The Impact of Digital Marketing Strategies on Sales Volume Growth in Culinary MSMEs in Surabaya
Main Article Content
Abstract
This study aims to analyze the impact of digital marketing strategies on the sales volume growth of Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) in the culinary sector in Surabaya. The development of digital technology has encouraged MSME actors to utilize various digital platforms such as social media, e-commerce, and food delivery applications to expand market reach and increase sales volume. This research employs a quantitative approach with data collected through questionnaires and documentation studies involving several culinary MSMEs actively implementing digital marketing strategies. The findings show that the use of social media, online promotions, and collaboration with digital platforms has a significant influence on sales growth. These findings confirm H1, supporting the conclusion that digital marketing strategies have a statistically significant and positive impact on the growth of sales volume in culinary MSMEs in Surabaya. These findings strongly suggest that digital marketing not only improves brand visibility but also directly contributes to increased sales volume, especially when combined with consistent promotional activities and accessible ordering channels. The model explains approximately 63% of the variation in sales growth among culinary MSMEs, suggesting that digital marketing is a strong predictor of business performance in this sector. These results indicate that digital marketing is an effective strategy for supporting the growth of culinary MSMEs, especially in facing a competitive and dynamic market environment. The following recommendations are proposed: Business owners should be encouraged to improve their understanding of digital marketing concepts, including content creation, customer engagement strategies, platform analytics, and campaign planning. This can be facilitated through workshops, online tutorials, and peer learning initiatives tailored to MSMEs.
