Abstract

The competition for telecommunication-broadcasting bundle is under full steam. Even large mobile OS companies like Apple and Google are showing signs of moving into the telecom and broadcasting industry, and it is expected that competition for bundle will become even fiercer. In the light of this situation, this study will show which factors can heighten purchasing intention for bundle and lower expected-discounting rates, seeking its answer in the quality, satisfaction, and brand loyalty to core product. The results of the study show that the brand loyalty to core product affects the customer's purchasing intention positively while lowering expected-discounting rates. This conclusion suggests the importance of a marketing strategy that heightens satisfaction of existing customers who use a single item, which is just as important as strategies to induce switching behavior of the customers of other companies through competitive pricing. Also, the results suggest that rather than appeal to loyal customers through discounts, it is more effective to offer them different benefits or value.

국내 외에서 통신 방송 결합상품의 가입경쟁이 가속화되고 있다. 여기에 더하여 Apple이나 Google 같은 거대 모바일 OS 사업자들이 통신 방송산업으로의 진출 움직임을 보이고 있어, 향후 결합상품 경쟁은 더욱 치열해질 전망이다. 이러한 상황 하에서, 본 연구는 결합상품 구매의도를 높이고, 기대할인율을 낮출 수 있는 요인을 밝히고자 했고, 그 해답을 핵심상품의 품질, 만족, 브랜드충성도에서 찾고자 했다. 연구 결과, 결합상품 구성상품 중 핵심상품에 대해 높은 브랜드충성도를 가지고 있는 경우, 핵심상품을 제공하는 사업자의 결합상품을 구매할 가능성이 더 높아지고, 요구하는 기대할인률 수준을 낮출 수 있다는 것을 확인하였다. 이 같은 연구결과는 저렴한 결합상품으로 타사 고객의 전환행동을 유도하는 마케팅전략 못지않게 기존 단품 이용고객들의 만족도를 높이는 마케팅전략이 중요하다는 점을 시사한다. 또한, 충성고객군에 대해서는 결합상품 할인율로 어필하기보다는 다른 혜택이나 가치를 제공하는 것이 보다 효율적일 수 있다는 것을 시사한다.
