Pengaruh Social Media Marketing Dan Electronic Word Of Mouth (E-WOM) Terhadap Keputusan Pembelian Dengan Brand Awareness Sebagai Variabel Mediasi Pada Produk Avoskin Di Pekanbaru
ABSTRACT
This study aims to examine the impact of Social Media Marketing (SMM) and Electronic Word Of Mouth (E-WOM) on the Purchasing Decision of Avoskin products in the Pekanbaru area, by testing the mediating role of Brand Awareness. Adopting a quantitative approach, this research involved 100 respondents who are Avoskin consumers in Pekanbaru, with data collected through questionnaires and analyzed using SPSS software. The key findings indicate that SMM and E-WOM both have a direct, positive, and significant contribution to Purchasing Decisions. Furthermore, these two independent variables were also found to have a positive and significant effect on the formation of Brand Awareness. The significance of Brand Awareness as a predictor of Purchasing Decisions was also positively confirmed. Crucially, path analysis revealed that Brand Awareness significantly mediates the relationship between SMM and E-WOM with Purchasing Decisions. The overall regression model showed that the combination of SMM, E-WOM, and Brand Awareness explains 77.8% of the variability in Purchasing Decisions, underscoring the strategic imperative of integrated digital marketing to strengthen brand equity and facilitate consumer decision-making processes in the skincare industry.
