The rise of e-commerce has transformed the global retail industry, including the smartphone and gadget sector. In Indonesia, while online shopping has become more popular due to its convenience, smartphone brands still face challenges. Despite the growth of online platforms, many customers prefer shopping in physical stores, especially after the pandemic. This research aims to understand what drives consumers to shop online for smartphones and gadgets, and to offer insights and strategies for both smartphone manufacturers and e-commerce platforms to boost their online presence and attract more customers.

The study addresses key questions about consumer behavior: What motivates people to buy smartphones and gadgets online rather than in-store? How do they perceive their online shopping experience, and what factors affect their satisfaction? What obstacles do they face when shopping online, and how do they overcome them? How do they react to personalized marketing and recommendations? And what drives their loyalty and repeat purchases in the online market?

By using the Customer Decision Journey, Marketing Technology, and Porter’s Five Forces analysis, the research identifies important factors like delivery, promotions, store information, and ease of finding product details. The study will provide actionable business solutions and recommendations to help smartphone manufacturers and e-commerce platforms tackle challenges and improve their online market strategies.
