Abstract

The core objective of this study is to delve into the intricate dynamics among entrepreneurial orientation (EO), resource availability, powerful entrepreneurial networking, and marketing performance within the specific context of small- and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) operating within Indonesia’s Halal industry. By undertaking a comprehensive analysis of these distinct variables, our aim is to unveil the intricate interplay that characterizes their relationships, understand their individual impacts, and uncover potential theoretical implications. This research endeavor is driven by the ambition to broaden the existing knowledge landscape within this domain and provide valuable insights that hold significance for both industry practitioners and scholarly researchers. Adopting a content analysis approach, we methodically construct a robust conceptual framework. This framework is meticulously developed through the synthesis of a diverse array of carefully selected sources. This meticulous approach empowers us to establish a sturdy underpinning for our research, facilitating a comprehensive understanding of the intricate dynamics that govern the interconnections between EO, resource availability, powerful entrepreneurial networking, and marketing performance within the distinctive milieu of Halal-oriented SMEs in Indonesia.
