The rapid growth of this property business is driven by basic human needs. Property growth in Pekanbaru during 2018 - 2023 continues to increase. A house is one of the basic human needs and is an important factor in increasing human dignity. This is a very dominant issue in human survival to carry out all its activities. One of the attractions in current property development is the use of ceramics, according to the Top Brand index of Ceramic brands during 2019 - 2023 is as follows: 23,223,5 9,810,5 13,8 14,5 Asia Tile KIA Mulia Platinum Roman Source: TOP Brand Award 2023 Figure 1. Top Brand Index 2019 Ae 2023 Figure 1. is data from several ceramic brands that are in high demand such as Asia Tile. KIA. Mulia. Platinum and Roman. Data from the Top Brand Index shows that KIA is the ceramic brand that is in first place followed by Asia Tile in third place and Roman in third place. The results of the Top Brand data explain that Asia Tile is a brand that is able to compete with the KIA brand in ceramic sales. While Mulia Tile ceramics are at the bottom. This research was conducted at PT. Surya Asia Abadi Pekanbaru, which is a company engaged in the marketing of ceramics, one of the leading brands is Mulia Tile ceramics, during 2018 to 2022 where during the 5-year period the sales realization has not reached the target set by the company. In terms of percentage, sales over the past 3 years have decreased. This decline in sales is due to the fact that the Mulia Tile brand ceramic products have not met the needs of several consumers (Suhardjo et al. , 2. , so that many consumers buy ceramic products with familiar brands or buy types of ceramics that have been used before, of course this can affect consumer buying interest in Mulia Tile ceramic products at PT. Surya Asia Abadi Pekanbaru which has not met expectations. The pre-survey explained that ceramics with the Mulia Tile brand are already widely known by consumers who come to PT. Surya Abadi Pekanbaru, but not all consumers use Asia Tile ceramics even though consumers know and understand about Asia Tile ceramics. The main reason why there are still many consumers of PT. Surya Abadi Pekanbaru who have not used Mulia Tile ceramics is because it does not match the needs of consumers so that this will affect a consumer's interest in buying Asia Tile ceramics at PT.

The standard normal distribution is data that has been transformed into the form of Z-Score and assumed to be normal. The following are the results of the Kolmogorov Smirnov Test. Based on table 3 above, it can be seen that the Kolmogorov-Smirnov Z value with the Asymp. Sig . value of 0. 175 is above 0. 05, meaning that the data is normally distributed. So the sample data is good and suitable for use in this study. The normality test can also be done using the normal probability plot model: Source : SPSS Processed Data 2024 Figure 3. Normality Test Normal Probability Plot Based on Figure 3 above, where the graph shows that the plot is spread following a diagonal line, it can be concluded that according to the assumption of normality, the data in this study is normally distributed. Multicollinearity Test To detect the presence or absence of multicollinearity symptoms between independent variables. Variance Inflation Factor (VIF) and Tolerance are used. The limit of Tolerance Value is 0. 10 and the limit of VIF is 10. From table 3 above, it can be seen that the VIF (Variance Inflation Facto. of each variable in this study shows a number smaller than 10. This means that the variables in this study do not experience multicollinearity Heteroscedasticity Test One way to detect heteroscedasticity is to look at the scatter plot graph between the predicted value of the dependent variable (ZPRED) and its residual value (SRESID).
