Recent market environment shows a new relationship between customer and company. You can easily observe customers take initiatives to get involved in the marketing activities such as product development, pricing and distribution etc. Despite the fact there are a lot of marketing activities initiated by customers in the online travel market, customer participation has been given little attention in the academic literature. Our research is grounded in the well-known commitment-trust theory of relationship marketing, originally proposed by Morgan and Hunt(1994). According to the theory, trust is central to successful relationship marketing. This study explores the effect of trust on customer participation in the online travel market. Consequently, this study suggests some managerial implications for marketing strategies in response to customer initiative in the marketing activities on the online travel market.

As an increasing number of people gained access to social network services (SNS), organizations started to use SNS as a channel for marketing and promotional purposes. The online advertising market has significant growth potential. Brand engagement is a key motive for online advertising, but how SNS users engage with brands, particularly in terms of the promotion of organizations, is poorly understood. This study uses customer value theory to examine brand engagement of users in terms of promoting companies in the context of Korean SNS marketing. This study identifies the antecedents of brand engagement based on customer value theory. Our findings show the significance of three factors of SNS marketing, namely, price discount, relationship support, and convenience, on brand engagement. We further show the consequences of brand engagement, namely, purchase decisions and word-of-mouth activities. These findings help advance customer value theory and offer practical insights into the use of information systems and marketing in the context of SNS.

In this study, the factors affecting opportunism in the relationship between suppliers and key accounts were analyzed from the viewpoint of transaction cost theory, market power theory, and relationship marketing theory. As a result of the hypothesis test, Hypothesis 1 stating that demand volatility will have a positive effect on opportunism and Hypothesis 2 that transaction-specific investment will have a positive effect on opportunism were also supported. In addition, Hypothesis 3 stating that channel power will have a positive effect on opportunism was also supported. Lastly, Hypothesis 4 stating that relational commitment will have a negative effect on opportunism was not supported, along with Hypothesis 5 stating that transaction satisfaction will have a negative effect on opportunism. The theoretical and practical implications of this study are as follows. This study has identified the antecedents of opportunism by comprehensively applying the transaction cost theory, market power theory, and relationship marketing theory. In addition, this study can identify what a company should manage specifically to lower opportunism by identifying the antecedents of opportunism. The limitations of this study and the directions for future studies are as follows. First, not all of the antecedents of opportunism of key accounts have been extensively investigated from the viewpoint of the transaction cost theory, market power theory, and relationship marketing theory. In the future, it is necessary to identify additional factors. Second, the study was conducted only in the supplier's viewpoint. In future studies, it is expected that more accurate research results can be obtained by simultaneously examining not only the supplier's point of view but also the buyer's point of view.

Research addressing international new ventures' social responsibility activities is scarce. Specifically, researchers have little account for the effects of an international new venture's social responsibility efforts on the outcomes of relationships with local customers in emerging economies. Against this background, we attempt to extend the boundaries of an understanding of the effects of international new ventures' social responsibility engagement on local customers' loyalty through customer trust and customer identification in emerging economies. Based mainly on the stakeholder theory and the relationship marketing theory, our study conceptualize two facets of international new ventures' social responsibility efforts: ethical and philanthropic corporate social responsibility engagement. In addition, we identify positive customer relationship-building mechanisms for each facet. Furthermore, our study presents an empirically testable propositions that would explain how international new ventures' social responsibility efforts influence the outcomes of relationships with local customers in emerging economies. Finally, this manuscript provides a discussion of the present study' implications for theory and practice and limitations that naturally lead to future research on international new ventures' social responsibility activities in developing economies.

본 연구는 지금까지 유통분야에서 제조업자와 판매업자간에 관계를 연구해오던 상호의존성의 개념을 판매업자간의 공동마케팅 제휴관계에 적용하였다. 제휴관계에 있는 양자 간의 의존성과 상호의존성이 갈등에 미치는 영향을 사회학 분야에서 상호의존성과 갈등 간의 관계에 대해 상반된 견해를 제시하는 이론인 갈등 나선형 이론과 쌍무적 억제이론으로 설명해보고자 하였다. 기존의 연구들이 설문을 통해 변수간의 관계를 파악하였다면, 본 연구에서는 이동통신사와 공동마케팅 제휴관계에 있는 181개 기업의 거래데이터 및 설문을 동시에 이용하였으며 상호의존성의 선행요인으로 거래기간, 거래빈도, 거래선의 수, 거래특유자산 등의 변수를 도출하여 상호의존성과의 관계를 파악하였다. 실증분석결과, 이통통신사의 제휴서비스 환경에서는 상호의존성의 총합이 증가할수록 갈등수준 역시 증가함을 알 수 있었으며 따라서, 상호의존성과 갈등간의 관계를 설명하기 위해서는 쌍무적 억제 이론 보다는 갈등 나선형 이론이 더 적합함을 알 수 있었다. 아울러, 이동통신사의 관점에서는 거래기간, 거래빈도, 거래특유자산이, 제휴파트너 관점에서는 거래빈도, 거래특유자산, 거래선의 수가 각각 상대방에 대한 의존성에 영향을 미치는 요소로 도출되었다. 이를 통해 이통통신사 및 제휴파트너 관점에서 효율적인 갈등관리 전략을 제시하였으며 학문적 시사점들과 연구의 한계점에 대해 제시하였다.
