have been drawn as follows:

Happy Go Lucky (HGL) as a whole is in the "Good" category. In the Content Creation
dimension, it gets the highest percentage with a value of 82.8% this is due to the selection of
attractive, clear, and clear audio and then the content created is packed with eyecatching and
elegant visuals. There is also a dimension that is included in the "Less Good" category, namely
the Interaction dimension with a percentage of 67.6%. These results are because the information
received by respondents is not detailed or too short so that it is not easy to understand and
TikTok accounts are considered unresponsive because of a long time in replying to comments
or messages and often not even responded to, this is what affects customer interest.
2. Based on respondents' responses to the Purchase Decision variable on Happy Go Lucky (HGL)
overall it is in the "Good" category. In the Choice of Distributors dimension, it gets the highest
percentage with a value of 80.4% this is because respondents find it easy to get HGL products
because of the strategic location and ease of online purchasing services offered. with a
percentage of 67%. These results are because the discount is not appropriate or not in
accordance with certain moments. Respondents also felt that the discount given by HGL was
small so it did not increase their enthusiasm for shopping there were also discounted products
but these products were old and unattractive items.
3. Utilization of TikTok as Social Media Marketing has been proven to have a significant effect on
Purchase Decisions on Happy Go Lucky (HGL) with a contribution of 73.3% while the
remaining 26.7% is the influence of other variables not examined
Suggestion
1. Utilization of TikTok as Social Media Marketing on HGL as a whole is considered good but
what needs to be considered is the Interaction dimension because it is in the poor category so
that in conveying information it is recommended that HGL be more responsive and reply to all
comments or messages on the TikTok account, in presenting information must also be
complete, especially if the customer asks for information about the product because interaction
is important to maintain positive relationships with customers. Interaction can also be in the
form of providing informational content about fashion and being consistent in posting content
by referring to content that is currently popular and using hashtags that are relevant to the
content. HGL is also advised to be able to take advantage of the TikTok shop feature to make
it easier for consumers to shop. That way the impact received by HGL will be very large,
consumers will always remember HGL products and of course will increase the number of
followers and increase HGL sales.
2. The purchasing decision on HGL as a whole is considered good although there are dimensions
that need more attention, namely the Time of Purchase dimension because it is in a poor
category so that in order to increase sales and achieve company targets, HGL should provide
attractive offers and discounts, for example giving discounts at times of need. certain moments.
HGL may also post TikTok content containing quizzes or challenges that invite TikTok users
to have the opportunity to get prizes from HGL. It can also provide attractive offers such as
“buy one get voucher”, “buy one get one” so that customers are more enthusiastic for shopping.

observed in this study so that other factors can have a greater influence on making purchasing
decisions.
