Analisis Strategi Pengembangan Pasar Untuk Meningkatkan Kunjungan Wisata Religi Patung Yesus Buntu Burake Di Tana Toraja

Karlina Karrin, Mey Enggane Limbongan, Olivia D.Y. Pompeng
Abstract: Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis strategi pengembangan pasar yang diterapkan dalam mengatasi stagnasi kunjungan wisatawan (di bawah 50.000 pengunjung per tahun) akibat kejenuhan pasar pada objek wisata religi… Patung Yesus Buntu Burake di Tana Toraja. Industri pariwisata religi di Indonesia memiliki potensi besar, namun banyak destinasi menghadapi tantangan dalam mempertahankan dan meningkatkan jumlah kunjungan akibat persaingan yang semakin ketat dan perubahan perilaku konsumen. Penelitian menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif deskriptif dengan teknik pengumpulan data melalui wawancara mendalam, observasi langsung, dan dokumentasi. Informan penelitian terdiri atas pengelola objek wisata (Dinas Pariwisata) dan wisatawan yang dipilih secara purposive. Analisis data menggunakan model interaktif Miles dan Huberman yang meliputi reduksi data, penyajian data, dan penarikan kesimpulan. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa strategi pengembangan pasar saat ini masih berada pada fase transisi dan belum berjalan secara optimal. Promosi destinasi masih sangat didominasi oleh konten organik (word-of-mouth digital) yang diunggah secara sukarela oleh pengunjung melalui media sosial visual seperti TikTok dan Instagram, sedangkan iklan resmi berbayar dan kemitraan strategis dengan biro perjalanan berskala besar masih sangat minim. Selain itu, ditemukan adanya kesenjangan antara daya tarik utama objek wisata yang dinilai sangat memuaskan dengan kualitas infrastruktur layanan pendukung yang masih memerlukan standardisasi, meliputi aksesibilitas jalan, kebersihan toilet, keterbatasan tempat sampah, serta minimnya fasilitas ramah muslim (muslim-friendly) khususnya kepastian kuliner halal. Penelitian ini menyimpulkan bahwa strategi pengembangan pasar memerlukan peralihan pendekatan dari promosi pasif menjadi pemasaran digital berbayar yang terstruktur, perluasan segmen pasar geografis dan demografis, serta peningkatan kualitas fasilitas operasional demi menciptakan kepuasan pengunjung yang berkelanjutan. This study aims to analyze the market development strategy implemented to overcome the stagnation of tourist visits (under 50,000 visitors per year) caused by market saturation at the religious tourism object of the Jesus Statue Buntu Burake in Tana Toraja. The religious tourism industry in Indonesia has great potential, yet many destinations face challenges in maintaining and increasing visitor numbers due to increasingly intense competition and changing consumer behavior. This research employs a qualitative descriptive approach with data collection techniques through in-depth interviews, direct observation, and documentation. Research informants consisted of tourism site managers (Tourism Office) and tourists selected purposively. Data analysis used the interactive model of Miles and Huberman, including data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. The results indicate that the current market development strategy is still in a transitional phase and has not operated optimally. Destination promotion is still heavily dominated by organic content (digital word-of-mouth) voluntarily uploaded by visitors on visual social media platforms such as TikTok and Instagram, while official paid advertisements and strategic partnerships with large-scale travel agencies remain highly limited. Furthermore, the study identifies a gap between the core attraction, which is rated highly satisfying, and the quality of supporting service infrastructure that still requires standardization, including road accessibility, toilet cleanliness, availability of trash bins, and the lack of Muslim-friendly facilities, particularly the certainty of halal culinary options. This study concludes that the market development strategy requires shifting from a passive promotion approach to a structured paid digital marketing campaign, expanding geographical and demographic market segments, and upgrading operational facilities to create sustainable visitor satisfaction.

The Effect of Efficiency, Market Ratio, Liquidity and Leverage on Financial Performance: Evidence from Jakarta Islamic Index 70 (JII70)

Zana, Happiness, Santoso, Suryo Budi, Winarni, Dwi, Pratama, Bima Cinintya, Hapsari, Ira
Abstract: Companies listed in the Jakarta Islamic Index 70 (JII70) provide a unique research context because they operate within an Islamic capital market framework that applies sharia screening criteria and financial requirements.… . Despite being guided by the same sharia principles and regulatory environment, JII70 companies still show variations in financial performance. Although previous research has examined the factors that affect financial performance, empirical evidence regarding the influence of efficiency, market ratios, liquidity, and leverage still shows inconsistent results, particularly in companies that comply with sharia principles. Therefore, this study aims to analyze the influence of efficiency, market ratio, liquidity, and leverage on the financial performance of companies listed on JII70 by using Return on Assets (ROA) as a performance indicator. This study uses a quantitative approach by utilizing secondary data obtained from the annual reports of 57 non-financial companies during the period 2021–2025, resulting in 285 company-year observations. Panel data regression analysis was performed using the Fixed Effects model with Driscoll–Kraay error standard to overcome the problems of heteroscedasticity and autocorrelation. The results show that efficiency measured by Total Asset Turnover (TATO) and market ratio measured by Price-to-Book Value (PBV) have a positive and significant effect on financial performance. Meanwhile, liquidity measured by Current Ratio (CR) and leverage measured by Debt-to-Asset Ratio (DAR) have a positive but not statistically significant effect on financial performance. The findings of this study support the Signaling Theory by showing that efficiency and market ratio provide stronger signals regarding company quality and financial performance in the context of the Islamic capital market in Indonesia. These findings provide practical implications for managers in improving company performance as well as for investors in making more informed investment decisions

Abstract: This study discusses the optimization of a company's financial performance through working capital management and capital structure policies. To increase profitability (ROA), companies require efficient cash conversion cycle… ycle management and optimal funding supported by internal company characteristics. The research problem proposed is to determine how to achieve increased profitability in an automotive distributor company through the efficiency factors of Cash Conversion Cycle (CCC), Firm Size (Firm Size), Leverage (DER), and historical profitability factors (ROA_Lag). The sample of this study is the financial statements of PT New Ratna Motor (Nasmoco Group) in Semarang City for the 2021-2024 period, which were transformed into quarterly data (N=16). The results of data analysis indicate that this research model has a good level of feasibility (goodness of fit) with the ability to explain variations in profitability (Adjusted R Square) of 78.1% and successfully overcome autocorrelation interference. Simultaneously, there is a strong relationship between the independent variables and the company's profit movements. Partially, the Cash Conversion Cycle (CCC) variable is proven to have a negative and significant effect on profitability, while the Firm Size and Leverage variables have not shown a significant effect at the 95% confidence level.
