Netflix offers a recommendation system that can make it easier for users to watch. Users can easily find movies or series with the type of genre or other things they like through the recommendation system offered. This is one of Netflix's ways to satisfy and gain its users.

In 2020 Netflix was able to gain 18.2 million new users. During the pandemic, many people use Netflix to deal with boredom and stress. So it became one of the factors that increased Netflix during the pandemic. However, the recommendation system also has a significant impact on Netflix. The recommendation system provides users with a sense of comfort and convenience. Customers can quickly determine which movies or series to watch according to their preferences.

The use of big data is obtained from customer history using Netflix. The weak point of big data is that there may be an excessive amount of data to process so sometimes inaccuracies are found in the recommendation system. According to this matter, Netflix tries to overcome this by dividing the task to its researchers (Exhibit 1) based on their problem solving skills. So that in using big data which is more consumer centric, Netflix hopes to improve and provide better services or products to its users.

BNI XPORA: SME GO DIGITAL GO GLOBAL

Exports are activities carried out by companies or businesses in a country by selling their products outside their country of origin. Exporting is an activity that describes the competitiveness of a country's economy. It is also a by-product of Indonesia's diverse experience, innovation, productivity, and human resources quality. To increase exports, the Government seeks to produce half a million exporters in 9 years. Finance Minister Sri Mulyani Indrawati is optimistic that she will be able to print up to 500 thousand new exporters in 2030.

NETFLIX VS DISNEY+ HOTSTAR VS HBO: HOW DIGITAL MARKETING LEAD ON CONSUMER CHANGING BEHAVIOR

Netflix allows you view TV episodes, movies, animation, and documentaries on internet-connected devices. Netflix has transformed the home entertainment sector during the past 20 years. Netflix disappears every time the home entertainment industry changes. It's waiting for the next consumer fad. Netflix knows its market well. It altered the market by mailing DVDs and then allowing customers to watch films anywhere. The company's early streaming success came from licensing hundreds of successful movies and TV series from content partners. Even when it started generating its own material in 2012, most Netflix customers watched non-original programs, such repeats of Friends, The Office, and Grey's Anatomy (The Walt Disney Company). In 2019, content owners began offering their services. Inspired by Netflix's success, they decided to jump into video streaming, placing them in direct rivalry with their former distribution partner. Netflix's biggest issues are ahead. How should Netflix, a single-play entertainment corporation, react to large competitors?

SUSTAINABLE ADVANTAGE, IS IT A STRATEGY?

As the pandemic transformed various aspect buying behavior of the consumer, so did the retailers follows to match it. However, one of the legacies of the 2020 pandemic and the result of long restrictions of lockdowns, not all retailers are able to follow suit. This created an extensive list of malls and retail establishments questioning their existing business model and why could not bear the new business environment, which forced those retailers to file for bankruptcy. Yet, other retailers who prepared to tailor to the restriction saw it as opportunity to lead them to the market. During this same period, as consumers increased their reliance on online shopping, consumer spending shifted to the available retailing types. It increased sales for eCommerce in Indonesia, namely Tokopedia, Bukalapak, Shoppe, and many others. Though, the eCommerce boom during the pandemic was then challenged by the sudden consumer shift, which consumers flock back to malls and other entertainment venues. The lessen restriction on social interaction by the government has impacted the consumers’ not only toward buying patterns but also how they change their leisure preferences. This begs the question of the retail practitioners on what strategy is and whether their applied business model is sustainable. They should evaluate the advantages and disadvantages of the cautions they must prepare. With this rising phenomenon, while nowadays, e-commerce has become a vital element of retail strategy, the coming success of retailers will, in the long run, hang on constructing a cohesive customer experience, both online and in stores.
