Purchase intention was a type of behavioral intention, and the so-called behavioral intention indicates our subjective judgment about what we will do in the future. Therefore, purchase intention refers to the possible action intention, which can be used to predict consumer purchasing behavior. Blackwell et al (2005) stated that purchase intention is part of behavioral intentions and that behavioral intentions are a cognitive plan to perform a defined action or possible behavior on an object. Each concept of behavioral intention represents the individual's projection or particular behavior expected to be performed. According to Kotler (2010) purchase intention can define how consumer behavior occurs when the consumer is stimulated by external factors and arrives at a purchase decision based on his or her personal characteristics and decision-making process.

Furthermore, this AIDA model can also take consumers from unaware of the product to aware of the product (Ghirvu, 2013). The AIDA model also known as the purchase funnel.

This is because, in the minds of consumers, KR1M products have a level of quality that does not bother them as much as well-known brands that have high quality. For manufacturer-brand products, purchase intention was high. This is because the manufacturer's branded products were well known and have their own brand image in the minds of consumers. Besides that, consumers also have more knowledge about these products due to aggressive promotion by manufacturers through mass media and even print.
