최근 국내 초고속 인터넷 서비스가 대부분의 가정에서 이용하는 보편적인 서비스로 자리를 잡게 됨에 따라 사업자들 간의 가입자 유치 경쟁도 점점 더 치열해지고 있다. 사업자들 간의 출혈경쟁을 줄이고 수익성을 높이기 위해서는 기존 고객의 충성도를 높이는 방어적인 마케팅 전략이 효과적이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 설문 조사를 통해 초고속 인터넷 서비스의 충성도에 영향을 미치는 요인들을 도출하였다. 분석결과, 서비스 자체의 품질 및 애프터 서비스에 대한 만족 정도가 서비스의 충성도에 긍정적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 결과는 실무자들에게 고객 전략에 대한 시사점을 제공할 것으로 기대한다.

This research is on how people's trust in human-like AI-based service will influence customer engagement (CE). This study will discuss the relationship between trust and CE and explore how people's trust in AI affects CE when they lack knowledge of the company/brand. Items from the philosophical study of trust were extracted to build a scale suitable for trust in AI. The scale's reliability was ensured, and six components of trust in AI were merged into three dimensions: trust based on Quality Assurance, Risk-taking, and Corporate Social Responsibility. Trust based on quality assurance and risk-taking is verified to positively impact customer engagement, and the feelings about AI-based service fully mediate between all three dimensions of trust in AI and CE. The new trust scale for human-like AI-based services on social media sheds light on further research. The relationship between trust in AI and CE provides a theoretical basis for subsequent research.

This paper examines when a consumer in existent telecommunication 2G applies to new telecommunication service 3G from the viewpoint of an option pricing theory. To improve telecommunication quality of service, the consumer applies to 3G. The application means an exchange of 2G for 3G with extra costs such as searching and conversion costs. Since the option to exchange is a right that the consumer can exercise or not, application to 3G is deemed an exercise of the option to exchange at most suitable value of the option. The timing to exercise the option depends on the extra costs and the additional communication benefit from new telecommunication quality of service. These affect an optimal timing to apply to 3G. The optimal applying or switching timing to 3G is when an economic value of the option to exchange is equal to an economic value of the extra costs plus the additional telecommunication quality from new telecommunication service. The option analysis used in this paper is applicable to various industries.
