The independent variables include the entertainment, precision, creativity, and interactivity of short video advertisements, with consumers' purchase intentions as the dependent variable, and perceived intrusiveness as a mediating variable between precision and purchase intentions. The findings reveal that the entertainment, interactivity, and creativity of short video advertisements positively influence consumers' purchase intentions,while the precision of advertisements does not have a significant effect. Additionally, perceived intrusiveness negatively moderates the relationship between the precision of advertisements and consumers' purchase intentions.

China Economic Development: How did China become the World’s Second-largest Economy?

Da Na Moe — 2025-03-19

China’s transformation into the world’s second-largest economy is a remarkable feat driven by key reforms and strategic economic policies. This study examines the pivotal milestones of China’s journey, starting with Deng Xiaoping’s open-door policy in 1978, which marked a shift toward a market-oriented economy. The introduction of Special Economic Zones (SEZs) and policies promoting Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) accelerated industrialization and technological advancements, positioning China as a global manufacturing and trade hub. By employing a quantitative research design and analyzing secondary data, this study investigates the correlation between FDI inflows and China’s economic development, emphasizing their impact on GDP growth, employment generation, and technological innovation.
The findings reveal that FDI has served as a critical catalyst in China’s economic expansion, providing capital, advanced technologies, and employment opportunities. China’s export-driven strategy and focus on high-tech industries further solidified its role in the global economy. However, the rapid growth was not without challenges, including regional inequalities, social disparities, and environmental degradation. These challenges highlight the need for comprehensive strategies to promote equitable growth and sustainable development. Despite its limitations, such as a reliance on secondary data and the exclusion of comparative analyses, this research offers valuable insights into China’s development trajectory. It underscores the importance of FDI in economic growth and provides lessons for other developing countries seeking to leverage foreign investment for sustained development. Future studies should explore the long-term sustainability of China’s growth model and the systemic barriers that may hinder its continued economic ascent.

Abstract

International trade has grown so quickly that using innovative sales strategies is now essential to enhancing business performance. Conventional sales methods that priorities high-pressure closing approaches are being replaced by customer-focused, consultative selling strategies. Of them, SPIN Selling technique is well known for its systematic approach that focusses on understanding customer needs through Situation, Problem, Implication, and Need-Payoff enquiries. The impact of SPIN Selling on the sales skills and employment readiness of foreign business students at Rangsit University International College is assessed in this study.

Evaluating how well SPIN Selling prepares students with critical sales skills, cultivates enduring customer connections, and enhances their business performance after graduation is the main goal of this study. This study emphasizes the value of structured sales training in higher education by filling in the theoretical and practical gaps in sales education. A structured questionnaire was used to gather data from 114 students enrolled in the IBM335 International Entrepreneurship course as part of a quantitative research technique. To ascertain the connection between job performance and SPIN Selling training, regression analysis and ANOVA were employed. The results show a strong positive relationship between students' perceptions of their own efficacy in consultative selling, trust-building, and problem-solving and the use of SPIN Selling strategies. Alumni comments also indicate that SPIN Selling training helped them make the shift from classroom instruction to practical corporate settings.

This study emphasizes how crucial it is to incorporate SPIN Selling into academic programs in order to improve students' sales skills and future employment opportunities. Future studies should examine how flexible SPIN Selling is across a range of industries and how it may be adjusted to accommodate changing market conditions.
