Indosat Ooredoo Hutchison or more commonly known as PT Indosat, Tbk. or Indosat, a telco company in Indonesia has implemented a mobile application called Simpel for use by the salespeople to sell products. Currently, the app has been used by 60% of the users for less than 10 transactions in a month which resulted in only 9% of total revenue generated by the retailer app. This occurrence gave a challenge for Indosat to manage and increase the transaction count in the aforesaid app. This study aimed to analyze the factors influencing a salesperson’s decision to more frequently use Simpel to sell products. Every telco company can learn from this research to enhance app features better. The analysis is based on human behavior in information systems environment.
