Abstract

This research aims to investigate the impact of electronic marketing innovations on the operational efficiency of community tourism enterprises. The sample group consists of 400 entrepreneurs engaged in community tourism businesses in the upper Northeastern region of Thailand. The research tools used include questionnaires, assessed for their reliability using Cronbach's alpha, and multiple regression analysis to analyze the data. The data will be analyzed using percentages, multiple regression analysis to examine the relationships between variables, and the coefficients of determination.


The research findings indicate that there is a statistically significant correlation (at the 0.01 level) between electronic marketing innovations, social media marketing, mobile commerce, and the operational efficiency. Furthermore, the design of the user interface also has a positive and statistically significant impact on operational efficiency (at the 0.05 level).
