Abstract


Abstract: Electronic word of mouth (eWOM) has become a concern for researchers in the marketing field in recent decades. Existing research explains the reasons consumers disclose eWOM on social media (Facebook), but the motivation for employee eWOM behavior is not focused on research. This article aims to find out what factors encourage employees to grow positive eWOM on social media (Facebook). Respondents as many as 115 employees were obtained from questionnaires distributed online. The results reveal that three variables have an effect on employee eWOM behavior, including task performance, branding benefits and other assistance, while other variables have no effect on employee eWOM behavior, namely impression management and social benefits. This study provides a theoretical contribution to the eWOM literature by integrating consumer eWOM and employee OCB research, this issue from an internal employee perspective. In addition, providing deep support for marketing managers motivates employees to create positive eWOM on social media (facebook) voluntarily.
