products by young consumers on Instagram is still not optimal. This condition is
characterized by the low tendency of consumers to make Jofie Bakery the main

relatively low, while the influencer marketing and content marketing strategies
implemented have not been able to attract attention, increase interest, and encourage
maximum consumer engagement. In fact, influencer marketing, content marketing,
and buying interest are important factors that can influence consumer purchase
decisions. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to find out and analyze the

of Jofie Bakery products by young consumers on Instagram through buying interest
