Abstract

The aim of this research is to investigate the impact of digital marketing on customer loyalty through brand awareness and customer engagement. Organizations are deploying digital marketing as a strategic tool to access and engage customers, create brand awareness, and maintain sustainable customer loyalty. In spite of receiving considerable attention because of the fact that various studies have indicated a positive role played by digital marketing on customer loyalty, there remains an ambiguity in terms of understanding how this effect is driven. This research aims to fill that gap by exploring how digital marketing influences brand awareness and customer engagement, which in turn affect customer loyalty. The study focuses on POLYTRON, a local electronics brand, to explore how their digital marketing efforts in Indonesia impact customer relationships. The results indicated that digital marketing has a significant impact on customer loyalty via increasing brand recognition and enhancing customer attention. The implications of the study were found to be relevant for companies willing to formulates their digital marketing strategy better with respect to customer loyalty.
