Utilizing a quantitative approach with descriptive methods and Non-Probability Sampling techniques, the results indicate that advertising (X1) and social media (X2) significantly influence brand equity, while brand ambassadors (X3) do not have a significant partial impact. However, advertising, social media, and brand ambassadors collectively have a significant effect on the brand equity of Somethinc customers.
