온라인 쇼핑몰의 상품에 대한 고객 리뷰는 구매자들의 구매 의사결정에 영향을 미치고 있으며 중요한 구전효과의 원천과 의사결정의 정보 원천의 역할을 하고 있다. 한 제품에 대한 리뷰가 무척 많기에 온라인 쇼핑몰들은 고객 리뷰 평가 방안을 도입하였고, 이를 통해 고객들에게 유용하리라고 판단되는 리뷰들을 걸러서 보여주거나 강조할 수 있게 되었다. 리뷰 평가 방안은 해당 리뷰가 도움이 되었는지 혹은 도움이 되지 않았는 지를 리뷰를 읽은 고객이 평가하게 하는 방안이다. Amazon.com은 고객 평가를 바탕으로 총 투표 수 중에서 유용하다는 투표 수의 비율을 리뷰 유용성 지표로 삼고 있으며, Yelp.com은 유용하다는 투표 수 자체를 유용성 지표로 삼고 있다. 본 연구는 고객 리뷰의 감성과 독해 용이성이 리뷰의 유용성에 미치는 영향을 파악하고자 한다. Amazon.com의 고객 리뷰 자료를 활용하여 비율형 유용성 지표를 종속변수로 하는 유사한 연구들이 수행되어 왔다. 본 연구에서는 Yelp.com의 리뷰 자료를 활용하여 가산형 리뷰 유용성 지표인 경우에도 동일한 효과가 존재하는지를 검토하고자 한다. Yelp.com의 음료와 음식 카테고리에 해당하는 업종에 대한 리뷰를 자료로 활용하였으며, 점포의 명성과 인기도 데이터를 파악할 수 있는 170,294개의 리뷰를 분석에 활용하였다. 분석결과는 리뷰의 긍정 정도는 유용 투표수를 늘리는데 음의 영향을 미쳤다. 평가가 긍정적인 리뷰에서는 음의 영향관계가 유의 하였으나, 평가가 부정적인 리뷰에서는 리뷰의 긍정 정도가 유용 투표 수에 미치는 영향은 유의하지 않았다. 독해 용이성은 리뷰가 읽기 어려울 수록 높은 값을 갖으며, 독해의 어려운 정도는 유용 투표수 획득에 음의 영향을 미쳤다. 독해 용이성은 긍정 리뷰, 부정 리뷰 관계없이 모두 음의 영향을 미치는 것으로 분석되었다. 이 결과는 유용 투표수가 0인 리뷰를 포함하여 영과잉 음이항 회귀분석을 수행한 경우와 유용 투표수가 0인 리뷰를 제외하고 음이항 회귀분석을 수행한 경우 모두 동일하게 파악되었다.

Social commerce (s-commerce) is a subset of e-commerce and uses social media for social interactions. Although s-commerce has been rapidly growing, disputes between some s-commerce firms and their consumers often occur over issues such as poor customer services, incorrect product information, and late refunds. In order for s-commerce to continuously grow, s-commerce firms need to build consumer-trust in their transaction process to minimize their consumers' uncertainty. The purpose of this study is to examine the relationships between the multidimensional trust (ability, integrity, benevolence) and the intention of continuous use of s-commerce. Moreover, this study presents antecedent factors needed for trust-building by applying the characteristics of s-commerce, and verifies the relations between the variables. We test and validate the research model and related hypotheses using structural equation modeling based on a survey done on 428 people who have previous experience with s-commerce. The result shows that trust has positive effect on the intention of continuous use, and verifies the necessity of the antecedent factors (social presence, assurance, informativeness, economic feasibility, and seller reputation) for trust-building. This study provides strategy for the continuous growth of s-commerce, and suggests theoretical implication that explains the relationship between the characteristics of s-commerce and consumers.

Consumers' desire for beauty has become a driving force in the beauty service industry which was further developed through specialization and segmentation. Nail-care service, which is one of the beauty services, is showing rapid growth, and intense competition among salons has become apparent. Thus, service management method and marketing strategy are required for customer satisfaction. Therefore, in this study, we tried to classify the nail-care services on the basis of systematization and realization of its characteristics which are fundamental when developing management and marketing strategies. The subjects of this study were women in their 20s and above living in Seoul, Gyeonggi, and Incheon areas. As a result, the nail-care service factors are classified as "external environment" (interior, celebrity, newness), "internal environment" (equipment and products, cleanliness, and environment), "location" (location and transportation convenience), "reputation" (good reputation), "technician skill," "kindness," "relationship" (relationship, empathy, and affinity), and "price and discount." The consumer types of nail-care services were classified into three groups according to the degree of involvement of these concept systems. These results can be used as marketing basics and will be the basis for studying marketing strategies. However, the consideration of setting up a marketing strategy for each consumer type will be presented in a follow-up study.

This study examines the impact of live commerce characteristics on customer responses in the ELM perspective. Based on ELM, the central route is composed of information completeness, accuracy, and currency, and the peripheral route is composed of streamer credibility, streamer reputation, social presence, and system quality. An online survey of female customers aged 20 to 49 who have purchased beauty products through live commerce within the past three months was conducted. The results demonstrate that information completeness and information currency exert significant impact on perceived usefulness and enjoyment. Social presence and system quality also exert significant impact on perceived usefulness and enjoyment. Moreover, perceived usefulness and enjoyment had significant impact on behavioral intention. The effect of information completeness on perceived usefulness and enjoyment was much stronger for high product involvement groups. Furthermore, the effect of streamer reputation on perceived enjoyment was much stronger for high product involvement groups. In contrast, the effect of social presence on perceived usefulness and enjoyment was much stronger for low product involvement groups. This study suggests theoretical implications for applying ELM to live commerce and practical implications for differentiated live commerce marketing strategies.

Online Word-of-Mouth communication, or eWOM, has dramatically changed the way people network, interact, and share knowledge. Studies have examined why consumers choose to share knowledge online, especially online product reviews, as well as the motivations of individuals to share product ideas online. However, the role of gender in shaping the motivation and types of knowledge shared online has been given little consideration. Using concepts from Social Exchange Theory and the Theory of Reasoned Action, we address this research gap by developing and testing a model of gender's influence on knowledge sharing in a social media context. A PLS analysis of survey data from 257 students indicates that reputation, altruism, and subjective norms are key motivators for knowledge sharing intention in social media. More importantly, that gender plays a moderating role within the motivation-knowledge sharing relationship. We also find that subjective norms have a greater impact on knowledge sharing with women than with men. Collectively, our research results highlight individualized factors for improving customer participation in external facing social media for marketing and product innovation.

Case studies were conducted on a total of 10 research samples. The results were as follows: first, regarding the strategic factors of online fashion stores, 'price competitiveness' is important, especially in portal shopping and low-cost brands; 'product assortment' is important but not essential in all platforms; and 'differentiation' is important to continuously secure loyal customers in fashion shopping malls. Customer satisfaction leads to customer loyalty, and customer loyalty affects the sales conversion rate and brand growth of online sales channels. Factors that promoted sales activities in online sales channels were exposure, advertisements, SNS, events, special exhibitions, and events. Hindrance factors were low price competition, overheated competition, and the MD of sales channels. Second, the research samples used multiple online sales channels, including portal shopping malls and fashion shopping malls, in addition to their own malls. The selection factors were platform reputation and commission, branding, and customer inflow through exposure. Portal shopping malls were perceived as providing easy access, advertising/customer communication, exposure/search, price competitiveness, scalability, and intense competition, whereas fashion shopping malls were perceived as providing a brand image and concept, brand promotion, high commissions, difficult entry, and low profits. The factors for success in portal shopping malls were exposure/search, price competitiveness, and brand recognition, whereas the factors for success in fashion shopping malls were differentiation, brand, exposure/advertisement, product assortment, and MD.
