사례 1>> 요즘 점포 앞 같은 아웃도어 로케이션은 경품을 뽑은 크레인게임기 일색이다. 과거만 해도 자동판매기가 설치되었던 로케이션에서 자판기는 퇴출되고, 크레인게임기가 자리매김한 곳이 많다. 자판기가 설치되어 있는 곳 중에서도 장사도 안하고 흉물스럽게 방치된 로케이션이 많다 사례 2>> 서울에서 자판기 전문점을 운영하는 S씨. S씨 사무실에는 근무하는 사람이 달랑 3명이다. 아내가 경리 및 관리를 맡고 있고, 계약직 직원 한명이 자판기 운영관리를 담당한다. S씨는 간혹 가다 있는 실수요 판매를 진행할 정도이고, 방판 영업은 중단한지 오래이다. 과거 4년여 전만 하도 영업사원을 5명 거느리고 있었지만 시장이 죽자 방판조직을 없애 버린 것. 메이커 전문점의 간판을 걸어 놓고 한 달에 1-2대 기계를 판매하고 있을 뿐이다. 사례 3>> 기자가 취재를 위해 과거 자판기 판매 영업을 잘하기로 유명했던 모유통점 사정에게 연락을 했다. 그러나 그에게 들여오는 말은 실망스러웠다. "이제 자판기 사업은 안하는데요." 자판기 시장이 극도의 침체를 보이다 보니 자판기 영업을 포기하고, 다른 아이템 분야로 사업을 바꿨다. 위의 사례들은 우리 아웃도어 자판기들이 처한 현실을 여실히 보여 준다. 과거만 해도 아웃도어 자판기들은 방문판매 영업의 주 타깃시장으로 자판기 시장 활성화에 중추적인 역할을 했던 게 사실이다. 하지만 시장은 급격하게 몰락을 하여 비전을 잃어버린 시장이 되었다. 아웃도어 자판기들은 하나하나 사라지고 있으며, 자판기 방문판매 시장은 거의 명맥만 이어가고 있을 정도로 심각한 상황이다. 어쩌다 시장이 이렇게 되어 버린 걸까? 자판기 산업의 가장 핵심 로케이션인 아웃도어가 어쩌다가 경쟁력을 읽고 퇴출당하는 상황을 맞고 있는 것일까? 위기의 아웃도어 자판기 시장을 되살린 방법은 과연 없는 것일까?

우리나라 생명보험산업(生命保險産業)은 과거 40여년간의 비약적인 외형성장(外形成長)에도 불구하고 내적(內的)으로는 인위적(人爲的)으로 조성되어 온 과점적(寡占的) 시장체제하(市場體制下)에서 여러가지 문제점이 노정되고 있어, 금융(金融)의 자율화(自律化) 개방화(開放化) 국제화(國際化) 시대(時代)를 맞이하여 대외경쟁력(對外競爭力) 강화(强化)와 내부효율성(內部效率性) 제고(提高)를 위한 본격적인 연구(硏究)가 시급히 이루어져야 할 시점에 섰다. 본(本) 연구(硏究)는 계량적(計量的)인 기법(技法)을 활용함으로써 우리나라 생명보험산업(生命保險産業)의 효율성(效率性)에 관한 실증분석(實證分析)을 시도하여, 내재(內在)하고 있는 문제점(問題點)을 파악하고 이에 대한 발전방안(發展方案)을 제시하고자 하는 데 목적(目的)을 두고 있다. 규모(規模)의 경제성(經濟性)(economies of scale) 분석결과 생명보험회사들이 영업인원(營業人員)에 대한 과다(過多)한 투자(投資)에 상응하는 규모확대(規模擴大)나 효과적인 경비절감(經費節減)을 이루지 못하여 내부적으로 과다인력(過多人力)의 사용으로 인한 경영(經營)의 비효율화(非效率化)가 초래되고 있으며, 대리점(代理店)을 통한 점포정책(店鋪政策)에서도 규모(規模)의 비경제성(非經濟性)이 존재하고 있음을 알 수 있다. 범위(範圍)의 경제성(經濟性)(economies of scope)과 관련해서는 주업무(主業務)인 보험영업업무(保險營業業務)와 부대업무(附帶業務)인 자산운용업무(資産運用業務)간에 비용보완성(費用補完性)(cost complementarity)이 존재하고 있는 것으로 나타나, 자산업무에 대한 적극적(積極的)인 투자(投資)와 효율적(效率的)인 관리(管理)로 업무다변화(業務多邊化)를 추진하여 범위의 경제성을 높이는 것이 바람직하다고 사료된다. 이 밖에 本(본) 논문(論文)의 분석(分析)을 통하여 도출된 우리나라 생명보험산업의 문제점으로 낮은 수익력(收益力), 저생산성(低生産性), 재무구조(財務構造)의 부건전성(不健全性), 비효율적(非效率的)인 자산운용(資産運用), 소비자보호장치(消費者保護裝置)의 미비(未備) 등을 들 수 있으며, 본 논문에서는 이에 대한 업무(業務) 및 제도개선(制度改善)의 구체적인 방향을 제시하고 있다.

최근 민간사업분야에서도 GIS를 응용하려는 시도가 많아지고 있다. 몇몇 도전적인 기업들은 수년 전부터 GIS를 도입하여 주요의사결정에 활용하고 있으며, 매년 GIS 활용도를 높여가고 있다. 실제 본 연구도 경쟁이 치열한 국내 할인점 시장에서 GIS 도입을 통해 근본적인 경쟁력 확보를 희망하는 기업의 경영과제를 해결하는 것으로 시작됐다. 이러한 기업들은 지역의 특성을 단편적으로 파악하는 것에 만족하지 않고 지역별로 어떠한 전략을 수립할 것인지에 대한 해법을 요구하며, 이를 통해 새로운 수요창출을 기대하고 있다. 매출을 높이는 것은 모든 기업의 주요 경영목표이다. 이러한 점을 고려할 때 GIS를 이용한 매출예측은 기업들에 큰 의미가 있다. 특히 백화점이나 할인점 등의 점포를 운영하는 기업들에는 객관적인 경영전략을 지원하는 도구로 활용할 수 있다. 그래서 단순한 예측 수준을 뛰어 넘어 매출 향상을 위한 방안 마련까지 요구되고 있다. 기존의 GIS를 이용한 매출예측은 특정 반경 내 인문사회적 통계자료를 추출하여 통계적 방법에 의해 매출을 추정하는 과정을 통해 이뤄진다. 이는 과거의 정보를 기반으로 현재를 진단하는 효율적인 방법이다. 하지만, 어떠한 전략으로 내일을 준비해야 하는지에 대한 해법을 제시하기에는 한계가 있다. 이러한 이유로 기존방법론은 예측에 대한 통계적 설명력이 높다 하더라도 기업들의 현장업무에서 활용되지 못하고 있다. GIS를 이용한 매출예측 방법이 기업활동에 활용되려면 과거의 매출정보를 기반으로 현재를 진단하는 역할, 지역별로 차별화된 마케팅 전략 수립, 국지적 단위의 시장 진단과 매출 향상 방안 등을 지원하여야 한다. 본 연구는 매출발생이 예상되는 지역의 경계를 설정하여 상권영역을 생성하는 방법론이 핵심이다. 다시 말해 예상되는 매출 영역을 폴리곤 단위로 추출한다는 것이다. 기업들에 어느 정도의 매출이 어떤 지역에서 발생할 것인지에 대한 정보를 제공하면 지역별 매출 향상을 위한 전략 마련이 가능하다. 수치만을 제공하는 매출 예측방법과 비교하면 구체적인 마케팅 활동을 지원할 수 있는 특징이 있다. 이러한 방법론은 기업의 마케팅 활동에 실질적인 도움을 줄 것으로 판단된다.

The Korean distribution industry is gearing up for an endless competition. Greeting low growth era, less competitive parties will be challanged seriously for their survival. But for large discount stores, they have shown steady annual growth for years. However, because of the saturation for numbers of stores, the difficulty of gaining new sites, and the changes in the consumer's consumption behavior caused by the recession, now they are seeking for a new customers-based business formats. Accordingly, a large corporate comopanies made supermarkets which are belonged to affiliated companies of large corporate comopanies. They based on the strong buying power, focused on SSM(Super Super Market) ave been aggressively develop nationwide multi-stores. The point is that these stores are threatening at small and medium-sized, community-based private supermarkets. Private supermarkets and retailers, who are using existing old operation systems and their dilapidated facilities, are losing a competitive edge in business. Recent the social effects of large series of corporate supermarkets for traditional markets has been very controversial, and commercial media, academia, and industry associated with it have been held many seminars and public hearings. This may slow down the speed in accordance with the regulations, but will not be the crucial alternative. The reason for this recent surge of enterprise-class SSM up, one of the reasons is a stagnation in their offline discount mart, so they are finding new growth areas. Already in the form of large supermarkets across the country got most of the geographical centre point and is saturated with stages. Targeting small businesses that do not cover discount Mart, in order to expand business in the form of SSM is urgent. By contrast, private supermarkets are going to lose their competitiveness. The vulnerability of individual supermarkets, one of the vulnerabilities is price which economies of scale can not be realized so they are purchasing a small amount of products and difficult to get a quantity discount. The lack of organization and collaboration, and education which is not practical, caused the absencer of service-oriented situations. As a first solution, making specialty shops which are handling agricultures, fruits and vegetables and manufactured goods is recommended. Second, private supermarkets franchisees join the organization for the organization and collaboration is recomaned. It can be meet the scale of economy and can be formed a alternative business formats to a government. Third, the education is needed as a good service will get consumer's awareness. In addition, a psychological stores operating is also one way to stimulate consumer sentiment as SSM can't operate. Japan already has a better conditions of their lives through small chain expression. This study includes the vulnerabilities of private supermarkets, and suggests a competitiveness reinforcement strategies.

In order to improve the agricultural products distribution, many devices have been suggested. Recently, direct marketing channel of agricultural product is one of the best solution for the problems of agricultural product distribution. The largest farmers cooperative association in Korea, Agricultural Cooperative(AC) have tried to promote direct marketing channel of agricultural product. Especially, the Agricultural product outlet store owned by Agricultural Cooperative(AC) is developed as an attractive alternative. Agricultural product outlet store owned by AC classify two types; small ＆ medium sized supermarket style and large discount store style. In this study, direct marketing through the agricultural product outlet store owned by AC was examined because it leads direct agricultural distribution and shares over 70% of direct agricultural distribution in Korea.

There are a lot of factors working to facilitate the decline of Korea's traditional markets including large-scale discount stores, convenience stores, businesses of new types such as non-store retailing, and fiercer competitions among retail shops. The changes to the business environment are never favorable to them, either; the consumers have developed more diverse tastes and altered their purchasing styles; and the trading areas around traditional markets have withdrawn in size and power as new towns attract more businesses. In a word, every factor and situation seems to push traditional markets down the slope. Reacting to the problems, the Korean government enacted and enforced the "Special Law for the Promotion of Traditional Markets and Shopping Streets" to provide proper financial and management support. The shop owners of traditional markets formed merchants and prosperity associations and took various initiatives to increase the competitive edge of their traditional markets. All those efforts on the part of the government and the merchants, however, do not seem to be enough to revive traditional markets. This study set out to compare and analyze the management of shop owners of traditional markets based on the support projects by the government, to conduct an empirical research and analysis of their management conditions, and to suggest a better policy model by making improvements for the government's support system and making revisions to the current directions.

This study is in the purpose for the revitalization of traditional market as comparing to the relevancy between the central characteristics of a floating population going around for buying something or eating food and lots of small-sized businesses comprising of the commercial districts. The several traditional markets such as Cheonan station, Dujeong-dong, Sinbu-dong in Cheon-An city has been investigated repeatedly almost every two or three years by the Small Enterprise development Agency(SEDA) since 2001. By analyzing the raw data of those commercial districts made by SEDA, we can calculate the number of firms andthe ratio of business type of each commercial districts. In this research, the type of each business is classified into four groups such as restaurant, service, retail and the rest. Moreover, the central character of the floating population is derived from the raw data, which means the customer information about sex, age structure or the most populous time zones. From these characteristics, one commercial districts has his own specific features distinguishing from the others. The most important differences of past researches are firstly the dynamic viewpoint rather than a static one. Secondly it suggests that the relation between the central characteristics of districts and the floating population would exist. Lastly, it suggests that the interaction between both of them have a significant effect on the growth or decline of the districts and the rates of business type, other adjacent commercial districts as well. Eventually, this study provides several meaningful points for the revitalization of commercial districts to government or stakeholder such as management organization, business owners and new starter etc.
