본 연구는 조절초점의 조절효과를 중심으로 한 관광소셜커머스의 고객가치, 만족도, 지속적 이용의도 간의 관계를 규명한 후 고객가치와 만족도간 조절초점의 조절효과를 파악하였다. 실증분석결과로서 관광소셜커머스의 고객가치는 만족도에 부분적으로 긍정적 영향작용을 하는 것으로 나타났다. 그리고 만족도는 지속적 이용의도에 긍정적 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 조절초점의 조절효과 실증분석결과에 의거하면 고객가치와 만족도간의 조절초점의 조절효과는 부분적으로 긍정적 영향을 나타냈다. 이상과 같은 실증분석 결과에 의거하면 다음과 같은 시사점을 제시할 수 있겠다. 즉, 관광소셜커머스의 지속적 이용의도를 증진시키기 위해서는 관광객의 고객가치를 중시하고 또한 관광객의 향상초점을 촉진시켜야 할 것이다. 동시에 관광객의 예방초점에 대한 수준을 약화시킴으로써 관광소셜커머스의 지속적 이용의도를 도모하도록 하여야 할 것이다.

Purpose - Current study aimed at investigating customer experience types (gain vs. loss avoidance performance experience and hedonic vs. reliability imagery experience) and their influences on satisfaction and positive emotion as antecedents of customer engagement. It also explored moderation role of regulatory focus in the influence of each experience type on satisfaction and positive emotion. Research design, data, and methodology - 416 Vietnamese local tourists were selected to test hypotheses by structural equation model in AMOS 21.0. Results - First, customers actually achieving gain or avoiding loss are more satisfied. Second, customers with hedonic and reliability imagery experience feel more positive emotion. Third, both positive emotion and satisfaction have positive influences on customer engagement. Last, regulatory focus moderates the positive effects of either gain or loss avoidance performance experience on satisfaction and also moderates the positive effects of either hedonic or reliability imagery experience on positive emotion. Conclusions - Focusing on both cognitive satisfaction and affective emotion resulted from experience, this study could advance customer engagement theory. Managerially, brand managers should induce gain performance and hedonic imagery experience (loss avoidance performance and reliability imagery experience) from promotion (prevention)-focused customers to enhance their engagement.

Purpose - This study examined the relationship between service quality, perceived value, customer satisfaction and behavioral intention of coffee shop using CoffeeSERV scale. In this model, CoffeeSERV scale consists of fundamental characteristics, physical environment, confidence, beverage characteristics, and representation factors. In particular, this study tried to demonstrate the moderating effect of customer's regulatory focus orientation among in the relationships between service quality, perceived value, customer satisfaction and behavioral intention. Research design, data, and methodology - This study intends to expand the existing service quality research by using the coffee shop service quality measurement tool developed by domestic researchers. I wanted to find some implications for the trend. In particular, this study applied the regulatory focus theory to identify individual differences of customers regulatory focusing motivation. In order to verify several hypotheses, the data were 227 college students and analyzed with SPSS/PC 21.0 and SmartPLS 3 program. The moderating role of customer's regulatory focusing motivation was tested using multi-group analysis with SmartPLS 3 program. Results - The resutls are as follows. First, the fundamental characteristic factors only had a significant influence on the utilitarian value perception, but in the hedonic value perception, all other service factors except for the beverage characteristic had a statistically significant effect. Second, utilitarian and hedonic value had significant effects on customer satisfaction. Third, customer satisfaction had a significant effect on behavioral intention. Finally, the regulatory focus orientation played a moderating role in the relationship between beverage characteristic - utilitarian value, representation - utilitarian value, fundamental characteristic - hedonic value, physical environment - hedonic value, confidence - hedonic value, and utilitarian value - behavioral intention. Conclusions - The results of this study show that the various service quality factors that make up the CoffeeSERV scale have different effects on utilitarian and hedonic value. This means that perceived benefits from product and service experience have different impacts on the customer's experience. Therefore, marketers should identify the impacts of service quality dimension that customers who use coffee shops consider important, understand the impact process of these quality factors on experience value, customer satisfaction, and behavioral intention, and allocate limited marketing budget. The results also show that it is possible to establish differentiatied response strategies using customer's regulatory focus orientation to find ways to enhance utlitarian and hedonic value, customer satisfaction, and behavioral intention using various Coffeeshop service quality factors. At the end of this paper, some limitations and future research directions were suggested.

본 사례는 한국 암웨이의 CRM 구축 사례 분석을 통해 가치와 철학을 공유하는 고객관계관리가 어떻게 기업과 고객을 연결시키며 성과를 제고시켰는지를 보여줌으로써 마케팅 관리상의 여러 시사점을 제공해 주고 있다. 이 사례는 특히 기존 국내 기업들에게 많은 시사점을 제공해 주고 있다. 많은 기업들이 CRM을 시스템 내지 고객관계 관리 프로그램으로 도입하고 있으나 CRM이 전사적 차원에서 통합적으로 추진되어 실행되지 못하고 관련부서를 중심으로 단순하고 획일적으로 운영되는 경우가 많았다. 그 결과 운영성과가 낮게 나타나고, CRM 자체에 대한 회의를 가진 경우가 빈번했다. 그러나 CRM은 단순한 시스템이 아니라 기업 전략의 문제이며, 전략이 성공적으로 실행되기 위해서는 기업 전체의 가치와 철학이 내부적으로 공유되고 더 나아가 고객과 공유하는 것이 중요하다는 것을 이 사례는 시사해 주고 있다. 또한 이 사례에서는 CRM이 어떤 완성된 제품이나 시스템이 아님을 보여주고 있다. 보다 더 고객 중심적으로 나아가기 위한 목표의 변화와 현재까지 진행된 CRM에 대한 철저한 반성을 통해서 끊임없이 진화해 나가는 현재진행형 과제가 되어야 함을 또한 시사해 주고 있다.

This study aimed to investigate how such retailers as department stores, large discount stores, book wholesalers, and clothing wholesalers used information technology for the QR strategy and whether the QR strategy had an effect on performance with a focus on the pipeline strategy. For this purpose, the QR strategy was divided into transaction efficiency, supplier partnership, and customer detail strategy. The differences in performance and information technology were analyzed according to the fit of the pipeline strategy, such as internal focus, supplier focus, and customer focus, the business strategy which were used by the retailers. And, an attempt was made to investigate whether performance was raised according to the level of adopting information technology. The results can be summarized as allows. First, the adaptive level of information technology had an effect on performance. But, seeing that the explanatory power of the regression analysis on the effect of the adaptive level of information technology on performance was shown to be very weak, it is judged that the level of QR information technology in the responding firms was very low compared to that of foreign firms. Second, information technology used by the retailers included universal product code, bar coding, customer database, and information utilities. It was shown that the group of firms seeking the transaction efficiency QR strategy and the internal focus pipeline strategy had the higher level of information technology than the retailers seeking other customer detail QR strategy and the customer focus pipeline strategy and the retailers with inconsistent strategy. This indicates that the firm seeking to raise its internal efficiency has a high level of using information technology. At the end of the paper, managerial implication and future research directions were discussed.
