Abstract:
Tourist satisfaction can lead to positive word of mouth communication about a destination, which can bring in more business. The current study aimed to identify the role of the 7Ps of marketing mix on tourist satisfaction. A cross-sectional study design was employed to collect data from local tourists visiting West Sumatra. A total of 300 respondents participated. Data were analyzed by SmartPLS 3.3.7 by evaluating structural equational modelling. Findings revealed that all of the elements of the marketing mix had a strong relationship with tourist satisfaction, except for the place. The results suggested that the tourists in West Sumatra are somewhat satisfied but satisfaction can be upgraded to a higher level if proper management with respect to place is improved.
