The ability to succeed in a competitive market means to respond flexibly to difficult market demands by setting appropriate price, quality, and not least by creating a favourable environment for cultural, but also attractive shopping at a point of sale. Thanks to the innovative interdisciplinary approach using neuromarketing, we can create effective marketing strategies and thereby stimulate human emotions through which it is possible to achieve an increase in the number of deals, multiply revenue and improve the ability to stimulate a purchase. Commercial spaces are becoming more sophisticated day by day and the results of several surveys of consumer behaviour show that more than half of decisions 50-80% related to purchases are made on the point of sale and 80% are realized on the basis of positive emotions. An emotion is a complex processing of phenomena or situations which is determined by the relationship between their objective characteristics and needs of the subject. The element of lighting in shops also influences positive emotions of consumers being able to increase or decrease the sales. Lighting is the only factor that can be accurately measured and controlled. Accent lighting of a modern shop is largely involved in the overall design and the resultant atmosphere of the shop, playing a crucial role in presenting different kinds of goods. The use of accent lighting can draw the customer's attention to a specific part of retail space and achieve the overall harmonization of the shop. For some goods (fresh unpackaged food) lighting is not only powerful, but also the only marketing tool. The main objective of this paper is to clarify the influence of various types of accent lighting (different colour temperature, intensity) on the brain activity of respondents and their resultant emotional state (arousal / valence). Cortical brain activity was recorded via a wireless 14 channel electroencephalograph. The object of investigation is the impact of accent lighting in the section of fresh food (fruit, vegetables, bread, pastry). In the end of the article we explain how neuroscience can be used for a better understanding of consumer perception of accent lighting in the food market.
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.
The contamination levels of food poisoning bacteria was investigated from 350 samples of beef, 338 samples of pork, and 350 samples of chicken during the period from March 1996 to October 1998. The contamination levels of pathogenic organisms were higher in refrigerated meat than packed frozen meat and were relatively higher in chicken and packed meat than in beef. The highest level detected for each of the various pathogens was : less than 10,000 cfu/g for Staphylococcus aureus : less than 0.9 MPN/g for Salmonella and Literia monocytogenes: 7MPN/g for Campylobacter jejuni /coli. In the comparisions of cross- contamination ratio of tested meat for four species food poisoning bacteria 14.3% of beef, 23.5% of pork and 55.0% of chicken were contained only one species of pathogen, whereas 2.7 of beef, 5.6% of pork and 14.7% of chicken contained two species and 2.3% of pork contained a total of three species. Generally, pathogens was encounted higher isolation freguency in packed frozen chicken meat than in chilled chickens.
The prevalence and serotype of food-borne pathogens was investigated from 888 samples of chilled meat, 222 samples of packed frozen meat and 117 samples of imported frozen meat during the period from March 1996 to October 1998. Isolation rates of pathogens associated with food poisoning were revealed in order of Staphyloccus aureus, Campylobacter jejuni/coli, Listeria monocytogenes and Salmonella spp, but Escherichia coli O157:H7 was not isolated in all of the meat samples. Amusingly, Cczmpylobacter jejuni/coli were isolated highly in refrigerated meat, but was not isolated in packed frozen meat. L. monocytogenes was encounted higher isolation frequency in packed frozen chicken meat than in refrigerated chicken meat. In the distribution of serotypes of isolates, most isolates of Sta. aureus classified as enterotoxin type C and D. All of the Salmonella spp. isolated from pork were diagnosed group A and most of isolates from chicken meat were grouped B and D. Most of L. monocytogenes isolated from chicken meat were grouped type 1 and a few number of isolates classified as type 4.
