Nowadays, space branding becomes more important since it reflects and synthesizes the diverse experiences of the consumer. The objective of the research is to present the new possibilities that space branding offers by analyzing the brand strategy and the design characteristics of branded hotels, which are being projected as constructed branded environments. By integrating the brand with visible or invisible elements of the hotel, such as unique space planning, service, and consumer experience, a branded hotel can be a good vehicle to reflect fast changing consumer lifestyles and trends; it enables the consumer to experience brands in his or her everyday life, and it conveys the overall image of the brand by considering the consumer's multi-sensual experiences. The study processed with theoretical research which is related to the hotel space and branded environment. Four brands were selected with distinct business area and brand strategy, and studied to analyze the strategy and the characteristics of the branded environment in a branded hotel. In particular, the case study attempted to evaluate the distinctiveness of the branded hotel's spatial design by comparing each brand's representative flagship store with the hotel. As a result, four characteristics of branded environments in branded hotels were identified, namely, strengthen brand image, consistent brand strategy, extend brand perception, spatialize brand experience. Armani emphasizes their consistent brand image by applying similar design methods in both retail stores and hotel spaces. IKEA, in contrast, applies not their design identity but their brand concepts like practicality, efficiency, and low prices. Pantone gives an expanded brand experience by using synesthetic sensual stimulation using their color system. Missoni mixes and composes their patterns and materials in a three-dimensional manner and strengthens design possibilities and spatiality. This study suggests specific design methods to construct a branded environment in a branded hotel and offers new strategic directions for space branding.

본 연구는 소비자가 실제 제품이나 브랜드 사용 이외에 광고나 판매촉진 등 기업의 마케팅활동에 의해서도 브랜드를 경험할 수 있고 이러한 경험을 통하여 자아인식과 소비자-브랜드관계가 향상될 수 있음을 밝히고자 하였다. 총 248명을 대상으로 갤럭시S 스마트폰 브랜드에 대한 조작물로 브랜드를 경험하게 한 결과 브랜드경험 이후 긍정적 감정과 자아인식이 향상되었고, 긍정적 감정 또한 자아인식을 향상시킬 수 있는 것으로 나타났다. 이는 실제 브랜드를 이용하여 브랜드경험이 자아인식에 미치는 효과를 검증하였다는 점에서 중요하다. 또한 브랜드경험과 이를 통한 자아인식의 향상은 소비자-브랜드관계에 유의한 영향을 미치게 되며 궁극적으로 만족도, 추천의도 및 재구매 의도 등을 포함하는 브랜드 애호도까지 영향을 미치게 된다. 따라서 강력하고 매력적인 브랜드를 경험하는 것은 소비자에게 긍정적 감정의 형성이라는 혜택을 줄 수 있으며, 기업차원에는 소비자-브랜드관계를 통하여 구매의도 및 추가지불의도에까지 영향을 미칠 수 있는 관계를 밝혀낸 점이 주목할 만하다.

본 연구에서는 온라인 쇼핑 상황에서 소비자특성이 소비자감정과 소비자만족에 어떠한 영향을 미치는지 그 구조적 관계를 파악하고자 했다. 먼저, 소비자특성은 선행연구를 통해 정보탐색성향, 물질주의성향, 충동구매성향 등을 포함한 다양한 소비성향을 도출하였다. 다음으로, 소비자감정은 정보탐색에서부터 사용에 이르는 6개의 구매과정에서의 긍정적·부정적 감정으로 정의하였으며, 소비자만족은 구매경험의 전반적 만족으로 정의하였다. 이를 위해 최근 1개월 이내 온라인 의류 쇼핑 경험이 있는 20-40대 소비자를 대상으로, 소비자특성과 긍정적·부정적 감정과 소비자만족을 각각 측정하여 구조방정식 분석을 실시했다. 그 결과, 모형 적합도는 양호했으며, 충동구매성향과 과시소비성향, 혁신성향, 유행추구적쇼핑성향의 경우 부정적감정에만 영향을 미쳤다. 반면, 정보탐색성향, 쾌락적쇼핑성향, 경제적쇼핑성향은 긍정적감정에 영향을 미치고, 소비자만족에도 간접적 영향을 미치는 것을 확인했다. 이를 통해 소비자특성 파악 및 소비자 감정의 증진으로 온라인 쇼핑에서의 소비자 경험을 향상시킬 수 있는 시사점을 제시하였다.

Going shopping would be a very reasoned and well-planned activity, however, at the same time, it would not. People may go shopping just for fun and as their leisure. The motivations for going shopping and their experiences cannot be fully explained with the economic utility or the information-processing model. Thus, this study explored the hedonic aspect of the experiences of shopping as an alternative explanation to consumers' motivations of shopping and discussed retail advertising and marketing plans. An in-depth interview was conducted to obtain a better understanding about hedonic value, and it was found that hedonic value affects a consumer's shopping experience and that understanding consumers' motivations for shopping and establishing competitive advertising and marketing plans is important in drawing more consumers. Strategic implications for establishing further retail advertising and marketing plans obtained from the findings were also suggested.

Consumer satisfaction/dissatisfaction is a concept which is receiving increased attention from consumers, public policy makers, and marketers alike. The literature in this field is still meager, has been growing rapidly byt with diversity of direction. The purpose of this study is to review the conceptualization and taxonomy of CS/D in consumer research. Three types of the basic process in a general theory of CS/D are suggested; system CS/D, enterprise CS/D and product-service CS/D. It is also classified into macro marketing system CS/D, micro marketing system CS/D and consuming mix CS/D. The conceptualization of CS/D begins with a basic model of how CS/D results from the individual product purchase experience of individual consumer. Basic CS/D models are classified into process model which contains experience, information search, prepurchase evaluation and comparison process variables and psychological model which is derived from cognitive dissonance theory. Theoretical and empirical foundations about expectation model are asimilatin, contrast, generalized negativity and assimilation contrast theories.

This study examines the relationship between customer satisfaction and management response in the hotel industry amid the COVID-19 pandemic. By applying regression analysis and topic modeling to consumer reviews on online platforms, we assess how consumer perceptions and management behaviors have shifted since the onset of the pandemic. The findings reveal a significant decline in customer satisfaction linked to COVID-19. Significantly, while the pandemic has reduced overall customer satisfaction levels, high response rates and high review-response content similarity mitigate the impact of the crises. These results highlight the critical need for hotel managers to continuously monitor online reviews and adapt their engagement strategies to maintain and enhance customer satisfaction during ongoing and future crises. This research not only corroborates existing theories on customer satisfaction but also exposes novel dynamics introduced by the pandemic, offering new insights for effective customer relationship management in turbulent times.
