Pharmaceutical distribution companies or also known as Pharmaceutical Drug Wholesalers (PBF) play a significant role in the distribution of pharmaceutical products in Indonesia. Without the role of PBF, the drug will not reach the patients from the manufacturer. The PBF appointed by the manufacturer to distribute the product, has operational performance targets that must be achieved. However, like other businesses, PBF operational performance is also affected by external factors, such as the COVID-19 pandemic, government regulations and competition intensity. The impact of internal factors such as limited company resources is also investigated in this research. This research tries to explore the impact of external factors, those are: the pandemic of COVID-19, government regulations, competition intensity and internal factors that are the company's limited resources to PBF operational performance. Sales strategy is also used as mediating variables from external and internal factors to operational performance, thus operational control as moderating variable from sales strategy to operational performance respectively. Data collection was obtained by questionnaires and interviews with 44 PBF operational leaders in Bali, Indonesia. Data analyzing using SmartPLS 3.0. The COVID-19 pandemic, government regulations, competition intensity and company’s limited resources have a negative impact on the company's operational performance. Sales strategy serves as a mediating variable from external and internal factors to operational performance. Operational control plays a significant role in moderating sales strategy and the performance of operational. The theoretical implication of this research is to enhance The Contingency Theory, which claims that the business environment, strategy, and control are three major contingency elements that are linked. The findings of this study also strengthen the concept of Transaction Cost Theory, which states that the relationship between the parties in a transaction is associated with rights and obligations that are poured into a very detailed agreement. The operational performance required by the principal to PBF is also included in the agreement and PBF should strive to achieve that operational performance.

Several administrative areas in Bali are not ready for an effective spatial regulation for the tourism industry resulting in large-scale land conversion, including changes in productive agricultural land for tourism and other industrial needs. These changes allow environmental damage that threatens the performance and sustainability of tourism in Bali. The purpose of this study was to investigate the seven factors of ecotourism success, and their impacts on quality tourism experiences and sustainable tourism. The research was conducted in Bali by taking 200 samples from four village samples. The analysis used was Structure Equation Modeling (SEM) assisted by the Partial List Square (PLS) application. The results show that the research model yielded feasible Goodness of Fit. The results also show that ecotourism as a source of income was unable to support economic and infrastructure development. Community involvement had no significant impact on conservation efforts. Conservation had no impact on ecotourism performance. Services did not have any an impact on tourism performance. Thus, ecotourism as a source of income, community involvement, conservation and services as successful factors in improving ecotourism performance are strategic management priorities to build quality tourism experiences and sustainable tourism.

Changing consumer purchasing decision behavior is not easy. Consumers are now classified as intelligent consumers who are supported by the development of information and technology. Especially the decision to purchase products that are not widely known in the community, particularly environmentally friendly products or natural products (green products). One of the environmentally friendly products that attract public attention lately is Loloh cemcem brand from Penglipuran Village Bangli. The objectives of this study are a) to explain the effect of hedonic value, brand personality appeal, and attitude towards behavioral intention, and to explain the role of brand personality appeal as a mediator of the relationship between the hedonic value towards attitude and behavioral intention. The study is conducted in all districts in Bali from September 2018 to June 2019. The analysis technique used is path analysis. The research findings show that all variables have positive and significant effects on behavioral intention. However, brand personality appeal only acts as a mediating variable in part of the relationship between hedonic value towards attitude and the relationship between hedonic value towards behavioral intention. It means that there are other variables that play as mediator which are not examined in this study. The results of the analysis are expected to be used as a consideration by the producers of Loloh cemcem of Penglipuran Village Bangli so that they will be able to deal with further competition and the study results can be used as an alter-native strategy to implement a green business. In addition, the study results can be used by the government as an input in making policies that encourage the rapid growth of the Balinese local wisdom industry.

The study aimed to perform a further analysis of the society’s awareness towards the natural environment, especially the awareness of having a healthy life, which leads them to have an awareness to use a natural-based product (environmentally friendly product). Furthermore, this awareness acts as a guidance for them to become consumers who care about their environment and also the material logistics management of each company to build a good customer relationship management with their customer. Along with this phenomenon, however, several reasons regarding the increase of environmentally friendly product consumption are unknown. This study focused on antecedents generating green purchase behavior, namely, social influence, green attitude, green value, and green trust. The approach applied in the study was a purposive sampling method with the 450 respondents in all over Bali. The finding showed that the social influence did not significantly impact the green purchase behavior. On the other hand, green attitude, green value, and green trust brought a positive and significant impact toward green purchase behavior. Social influence, green attitude, and green value influenced positively and significantly toward green trust. Green trust played a role as the relationship mediator of social influence, green attitude, and green value on green purchase behavior. The study was limited as it belonged to cross-sectional and longitudinal study, and it needed a lengthy period to validate the finding. It only accommodated the consumer’s green purchase behavior in Bali. Hence, it cannot be generalized; however, it can be developed in another area. Moreover, the practical implication for the producers of the environmentally friendly product is that they can be more attentive to certain variables that generate the green purchase behavior. The authenticity of the study is that the social influence does not influence the green purchase behavior toward the society in Bali. Furthermore, this study supports the Theory of Reasoned Action (TRA) particularly in marketing the green product. The study is a more completed model development of the green purchase behavior. Furthermore, the variable in this study is worth considering in developing the environmentally friendly product.

Bali's culture is synonymous with its inhabitants' practice of celebrating religious holidays. Hindu women in Bali often purchase ritual equipment. This research aims to identify the determinants of impulsive buying among Hindu women in the retail industry, as well as the impact of Customer Relationship Management (CRM) on managing this behavior. The research method used is quantitative, with a sample size of 250 respondents analyzed using Smart PLS. The results show that the hedonic shopping value has a favorable and substantial influence on impulsive purchasing, as does the desire to buy impulsively. Self-control has the potential to adversely moderate the effect of the desire to acquire on impulsive purchasing. Hedonic shopping value is important to consider, thus marketing programs should accommodate the hedonic shopping value that Hindu women in Bali seek when shopping for Galungan (yadnya) preparations.
