Abstract

       This research aimed to study (1) the STP marketing strategy affecting the motivation to purchase coffee beans, (2) the brand image influencing purchasing motivation, and (3) the relationship between STP strategy and brand image on purchasing motivation from coffee roasters in Chumphon Province. Data were collected using questionnaires from 385 consumers of seven selected coffee roasters. The instrument was validated and tested for reliability. Descriptive statistics and multiple regression analysis were employed. The findings revealed that STP strategy, especially product positioning, and brand image, particularly perceived benefits, had statistically significant effects on purchasing motivation. These factors collectively provided a strong predictive ability for consumer motivation.
