The development of mobile communication technology is transforming the market of mobile communication devices, which is used to be merely for simple communication, into the one which offers features of personal digital assistant (PDA), fax communica- tion and Internet access. Unlike a mobile phone which comes out as a complete package and whose functions cannot be changed, a smart phone can be upgraded by its user, adding or removing apps as he pleases. OS’s of smart phones are iOS-based Apple, Google Android, Window Mobile, and others. Due to its convenience and powerful features, many people use smart phones its high price. On the other hand, consumer complaints are rising on poor A/S for occasional malfunction. This study analyzes how A/S cases can be classified into groups according to quality factors. We evaluate factors such as consumer impression and consumer satisfaction. By dual quality evaluation using KANO method, we would like to show the different A/S strategy for smart phones, compared with mobile phones.

연구결과의 요약 및 논의 본 연구에서는 농식품의 주요 소비자판매처인 대형할인점과 대형슈퍼마켓을 대상으로 품질 및 고객서비스만족과 구매의 경제적 가치만족이 점포신뢰와 재구매의도에 미치는 영향력을 장기관계지향고객과 단기거래지향고객으로 분류하여 검증하였다. 분석결과, 대형할인점의 장기관계지향고객의 경우 품질 및고객서비스만족은 점포신뢰에 그리고 구매의 경제적가치만족은 점포신뢰와 재구매의도에 영향을 주었고, 점포신뢰는 재구매의도에 영향을 주는 것으로 나타난 반면 단기거래지향고객의 경우 구매의 경제적가치만족 만이 점포신뢰에 영향을 주는것으로 확인되었다. 그러나 대형마트 장기간 관계지향고객에서는 구매의 경제적가치만족이 점포신뢰에 영향을 줌으로써재구매의도를 형성한 반면 단기지향고객에서는 구매의 경제적가치만족과 점포신뢰가 동시에 재구매의도에 영향을 주는 것으로 확인되었다. 이상의 연구결과를 바탕으로 다음과 같은 논의를 할 수 있다. 첫째, 대형할인점의 경우 장기관계지향고객은 점포 내 제품의 품질과 고객서비스 수준 그리고 구매 시경제적 가치 등 모든 요소를 고려하여 점포에 대하여 만족하게 되며, 또한 점포가 이들 만족요인을 고객에게 제대로 제공할 때 이용하는 점포에 대하여 신뢰하고 재구매의도를 강력하게 나타난다는 것을 알 수 있다. 따라서 장기간 관계지향고객에게는 점포에 대한 만족수준을 높이는 것이 중요하다. 구체적으로는 최신 정보기술(information technology)을 활용하여이용 고객의 데이터베이스를 구축하고, 개인화된 고객의 특성과 구매행동에 관한 정보를 축적하여 관계지향고객을 선정 한후 이들에게 제품 및 서비스에 대한 정보 및 가격과 판매촉진에 관한 정보를 DM(direct mail)이나 홈페이지에 적극적으로제시함으로써 점포이미지를 높이고 표적고객의 욕구를 충족시켜 점포에 대한 신뢰와 반복구매를 높일 수 있다. 그러나 단기거래지향고객은 구매 시 단지 가격구조나 판촉행사를 통한경제적 가치만을 고려하기 때문에 제조업체 브랜드(national brand)보다는 유통업체 브랜드(private brand)상품을 제시하여가격매력성을 높이고, 시간대별 판촉행사를 통해 고객의 점포에 대한 신뢰를 유도할 필요가 있다. 둘째, 대형슈퍼마켓에서는 관계지향고객이나 거래지향고객 모두가 구매의 경제적가치만을 우선적으로 고려하므로 가격정책에 역점을 둘 필요가 있다. 그러나 장기관계지향고객은 점포신뢰를 통해 반복구매의도를 형성하지만 단기거래지향고객은 직접적으로 재구매의도를 나타내므로 고객의 성향에 따라 분류하여 관리할 필요가있다. 즉 관계지향고객에게는 가격정책을 통하여 점포신뢰를꾀하여야 할 것이며, 거래지향고객에게는 판촉행사나 저가격정책 등으로 직접적인 반복구매를 유도해야 할 것이다.

With the strong growth of social networking sites such as Facebook in recent years, the potential of exploiting customers on Facebook is increasing. Presently, trading activities on Facebook is rapidly developing. Therefore, businesses have become increasingly competitive when selling products on Facebook, so as to retain customers as well as to satisfy customer, which is of paramount importance. This study was conducted to assess the factors affecting the satisfaction of individual customers in Vietnam when buying goods on Facebook. This study uses multivariate analysis techniques (Confirmatory Factor Analysis, Structural Equation Modeling) to determine the factors affecting customer satisfaction when buying goods on Facebook. Research results from 268 individual customers in Vietnam indicated trust and convenience are the two important factors related to customer satisfaction when buying goods on Facebook. Customer satisfaction is the result of consumer experience throughout the different stages of purchase. The more the shopping experience, the more the customers are satisfied when buying products. The price and products do not affect customer satisfaction (prices are easy to compare and products are easily understood on the Internet; hence, these two factors are not considered as determinants of customer satisfaction). Furthermore, this study provides recommendations to improve customer satisfaction.

Purpose - The purpose of this study is to classify the quality factors of chicken restaurant customers with the service quality based on the SERVQUAL, the quality factors based on the selection attributes and service qualities of chicken restaurants used in the previous studies. Research design, data, and methodology - This survey was carried out on the students of Kangwon University in Samchuk City, Kangwon Province from November 20 - November 30, 2017, and a total of 260 questionnaires were distributed, with 222 collected. Of them, effective questionnaires applied in the final study were a total of 193 except 29 that couldn't be used. Results - The findings of this study are as follows: Firstly, chicken restaurants' quality factors were divided into seven categories like cleanliness, service encounter quality, product quality, aesthetics, overall interior, purchase quality, and convenience. Secondly, it showed that service encounter quality, purchase quality, and cleanliness had a positive impact on customer satisfaction, respectively. Thirdly, it showed that service encounter quality, purchase quality, and cleanliness had a positive impact on trust, respectively. Fourthly, it showed that customer satisfaction had a positive impact on behavioral intention. Additionally, it suggested that customer satisfaction of chicken restaurant consumers had a positive impact on behavioral intention and thereby, higher customer satisfaction leads to higher levels of reuse and recommendation intention. Lastly, after checking the effect relations of trust between customer satisfaction about chicken restaurant and behavioral intention, it was analyzed that customer satisfaction has a positive impact on trust and trust has a positive impact on behavioral intention. On the other hand, it showed that trust have a partially mediating effect in the relations between customer satisfaction and behavioral intention. But, it showed that product quality, aesthetics, overall interior, purchase quality, and convenience did not have a positive impact on customer satisfaction. Conclusions - Chicken restaurant consumers put more priority on friendly and good services of chicken restaurant staff in service encounter and delivery order, rather than on reasonable price and discount systems. Thereby, chicken restaurant marketers need to take factors like service encounter quality, cleanliness into more consideration.
