최근 기업들은 새로운 마케팅 촉진전략의 하나로 SNS서비스에 중점을 두고 있다. SNS서비스마케팅의 특징에 대표적인 요소들은 상호작용성 그리고 정보제공성이 있다. 이에 본 연구는 국내기업의 SNS마케팅 특징이 관계몰입에 미치는 영향에 대해 실증적으로 분석하고, 트위터 이용 빈도와 온라인 구전의도를 확대하기 위한 전략을 제시하고자 한다. 본 연구의 결과는 상호작용이 정보제공성 보다 정서적 몰입에 상당히 긍정적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 그리고 정보제공성은 상호작용성 보다 계산적 몰입에 상당히 긍정적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 또한, 이러한 효과들은 낮은 트위터 이용 빈도 보다 높은 트위터 이용 빈도에서 높게 나타났다. 또한, 본 연구에서는 정보제공성이 상호작용성 보다 온라인 구전의도에 더 긍정적인 영향을 미치는 것을 밝히고 국내기업의 SNS서비스 마케팅의 특징이 온라인 구전 영향을 미치는 것 보다 관계몰입을 통해 더 긍정적인 영향을 미치는 것을 증명하였다. 이러한 결과를 기반으로 기업의 마케팅적 시사점을 도출하였다.

Customer engagement has been the main objective of brand companies in their marketing through social networking sites (SNS). Facebook is the most popular platform for SNS marketing, especially for companies that try to engage with their customers by providing various values through their brand pages (i.e., brand communities). The management of brand pages, therefore, becomes "the means" by which to achieve the result ("the end") of SNS marketing, and visitors to the brand pages (i.e., brand communities) then come to have a favorable attitude toward the brand. Based on a "means-ends" framework, this study examines the development of engagement between customers and brands in terms of brand page engagement as the means objective and brand attitude as the ends objective in the context of Facebook. This study further examines the antecedents and consequences of brand page engagement based on the customer value theory with two-stage data collection. This study contributes to the literature by explaining the roles and effects of brand page engagement in SNS marketing. This study further provides guidance to SNS providers and practitioners on SNS marketing strategies.

최근 중소수출기업들이 해외시장개척활동 수단으로 Blog, Linked-In, Facebook 등 SNS마케팅을 도입하기 시작하였음은 물론 이를 통해 가시적인 성과를 나타내고 있다. SNS 마케팅의 활용은 수출마케팅 분야에서 더욱 활성화 될 것으로 예측되며 이에 본 연구에서는 중소기업의 수출마케팅 환경이 SNS 활용동기에 미치는 영향을 분석하고 그에 따른 SNS 마케팅 성과를 분석하는 모형을 제시하였다. 실증분석결과 마케팅비용절감, 풍부한 수출경험, SNS 마케팅 인력의 유무의 변수들이 유의미한 값을 가지는 것으로 나타나 기업의 내 외부환경이 SNS 마케팅 활용동기에 영향을 미치고 있음을 알 수 있었다. 그러나 활용동기에 따른 간접성과에서 경쟁업체의 자극, 비용저렴의 두 가지 요인만이 유의미한 값을 가지며 직접성과에서는 비용저렴의 요인만이 유의미한 값을 가지는 것으로 나타나고 있어 SNS 활용동기가 직간접성과에 영향을 미칠 것 이라는 가설이 기각되고 있다. 이는 SNS 마케팅 역시 고객과의 소통과 관계를 바탕으로 이루어지는 만큼 충분한 시간을 가지고 이를 수행해야 한다는 점에 영향을 받은 것으로 판단되며, 향후 연구에서는 다년간의 SNS 마케팅 활용경험을 가지고 있는 기업들을 대상으로 설문을 시행함과 동시에 기업들이 겪고 있는 활용상의 제약과 문제점을 세밀하게 연구할 필요성을 제시한다.

Purpose - This study investigated not only social network service (SNS) characteristics' effects on continuous use intention and reliability, but also the effects of continuous use intention and reliability on purchase intention. Research design, data, and methodology - The subjects comprised 274 SNS users in their twenties. The research was conducted over three weeks from October 16, 2013 to November 6, 2013, using questionnaires. A total of 267 copies were collected; 255 copies were used after excluding unsuitable copies. Results - Marketers who used SNSs should establish a bi-directional community and SNS page information exchange. SNS marketers should exchange useful information quickly through SNS pages, to differentiate themselves from competitors. Enterprises should use SNSs for marketing, considering not only continuous use intention but also reliability, to elevate product purchase intention. Conclusions - The study had limitations. Most subjects were students aged 24 to 28 years; the findings cannot be generalized. Second, personal computers (PCs) and smartphones had similar influence.
