Abstract

This study was intended to empirically examine the influence that the omni-channel brand experience would have on omni-channel brand relationship formation and achievements. All hypotheses were adopted, except for 1 hypothesis(Hypothesis 5), among 12 hypotheses. Specific results were as below: First, omni-channel brand experience had a positive(+) influence on brand trust(Hypothesis 1), brand identification(Hypothesis 2), and consumer-brand relationship(Hypothesis 3) as a whole. The brand trust had a positive(+) influence on brand identification(Hypothesis 4), but did not have statistically significant influence on consumer-brand relationship(Hypothesis 5). Meanwhile, brand identification had a positive(+) influence on consumer-brand relationship(Hypothesis 6). Second, consumer-brand relationship had a positive(+) influence on re-purchase intention(Hypothesis 7), word-of-mouth intention(Hypothesis 8), and brand extension acceptability(Hypothesis 9) as a whole. Finally, omni-channel brand showed the following relationship with and achievements. re-purchase intention had a positive(+) influence on both word-of-mouth intention(Hypothesis 10) and brand extension acceptability(Hypothesis 11) while word-of-mouth intention had a positive(+) influence on brand extension acceptability. The results of this study may provide theoretical and practical implications for marketing managers' understanding and strategy planning in connection with consumer experience and relationship formation promoted recently by omni-channel brands of distribution companies.

본 연구는 본 연구의 목적인 옴니채널 브랜드체험이 옴니채널 브랜드 관계형성 및 성과에 미치는 영향을 실증적으로 검증하기 위해, 옴니채널 브랜드인 SSG.닷컴 이용경험이 있는 210명의 부산지역 대학생과 직장인을 대상으로 하여 연구를 진행하였다. 연구모형을 바탕으로 SPSS 25.0과 LISREL 8.30을 이용하여 가설을 검증한 결과 총 12개의 가설 중 1개의 가설(가설 5)을 제외하고 모든 가설이 채택되었다. 이에 대한 구체적인 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫 번째, 옴니채널 브랜드 체험 및 관계형성의 관계는 다음과 같다. 먼저 옴니채널 브랜드 체험은 브랜드 신뢰(가설 1), 브랜드 동일시(가설 2), 소비자-브랜드 관계(가설 3)에 모두 정(+)의 영향을 미치고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 브랜드신뢰는 브랜드동일시(가설 4)에 정(+)의 영향을 미치고 있지만, 소비자-브랜드 관계(가설 5)에는 통계적으로 유의하지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 브랜드 동일시는 소비자-브랜드 관계(가설 6)에 정(+)의 영향을 미치고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 두 번째, 소비자-브랜드관계는 재구매의도(가설 7), 구전의도(가설 8), 브랜드확장 수용성(가설 9)에 모두 정(+)의 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 마지막으로 옴니채널 브랜드 브랜드 성과간 관계는 다음과 같다. 먼저 재구매의도는 구전의도(가설 10)와 브랜드확장 수용성(가설 11)에 모두 정(+)의 영향을 미치고 있는 것으로 나타났으며, 구전의도는 브랜드확장 수용성에 정(+)의 영향을 미치고 있는 것으로 나타났다.
