This study fills in the gaps in previous studies on the role of brand awareness in the relationship between social media marketing and customer loyalty, using the PROCESS Hayes Model 4. The R2 value for the brand awareness model was 0.7046 and the customer loyalty model was 0.8090 showed that the independent variables in this study were able to explain the variation of 70.46% and 80.90% of the dependent variables, respectively. These results confirm that the research model has a very strong explanatory power (excellent) of the phenomenon being studied.
