Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to demonstrate the relationships between brand satisfaction and store loyalty by examining the role of brand trust, store satisfaction and store trust in determining store loyalty in retail service firms. The results of the study are as follows: First, in case of relation exchange consumers, which are characterized by cooperative actions and mutual adjustment of both buyer and seller, brand satisfaction has a positive influence on brand trust, brand trust has a positive influence on store trust, and then store trust a strong positive influence on store loyalty. That is, store loyalty can be build up by combined benefits both brand trust and store trust in relation exchange consumers. Second, in another case of transaction exchange consumer, which are discrete buyer-seller exchange of commodity or performance with minimal personal relationships and no anticipation or obligation of future exchange, brand satisfaction has a positive influence on store satisfaction, and then store satisfaction has a direct influence on store loyalty. So, retailers have to developing strong brands which could help ensure both satisfaction and loyalty.

본 연구는 점포충성도에 영향을 미치는 브랜드만족, 브랜드신뢰, 점포만족, 점포신뢰 간의 구조적 관계를 검증하였다. 분석결과 점포충성도는 단순하게 브랜드나 점포 각각에 대한 만족과 신뢰 형성보다는 브랜드와 점포가 결합된 만족과 신뢰를 제공함으로써 강력한 점포충성도를 형성할 수 있었다. 또한 점포충성도 형성 과정으로는 관계지향적 고객의 경우 브랜드만족이 브랜드신뢰에 영향을 주고, 브랜드신뢰는 점포신뢰에 영향을 주어 점포충성도를 형성하였고, 거래지향적 고객의 경우 브랜드만족이 점포만족에 영향을 주어 직접적으로 점포충성도를 형성하는 두 가지 경로를 확인하였다. 따라서 관계지향적 고객에게는 소비자가 점포브랜드에 신뢰할 수 있도록 차별화할 수 있는 파워브랜드를 제공하여야 하고, 거래지향적 고객에게는 점포에 만족할 수 있도록 점포환경을 개선하고 서비스를 강화하여야 하는 마케팅시사점을 제공한다.
