Abstract

In O2O environment(Online-to-Offline), providers attract new customers via web sites and lead them to pay online, then induce them again to offline when receiving products. Thus, online and offline channel is integrated and create synergy for marketing in O2O context. As online and offline channel coexist in O2O, consumers' perceptions for products and services that providers offer cannot help being different compared to an independent channel (i.e., either online or offline). Therefore, this research aims to develop the O2O service quality model(O2O-SQ model). Especially, O2O is the unique environment where offline, online, and mobile commerce are integrated so that the current paper suggests the $1^{st}$ O2O-SQ model by integrating the common factors of offline, online, and mobile service quality model through the previous literature review. Hence, this study conducts FGI(Focus Group Interview) for customers who have experienced in purchasing products in O2O commerce. Among integrated common service quality factors of $1^{st}$ O2O-SQ model, the current paper identifies the specific service quality factors that customers perceive significantly through FGI analysis. Moreover, after extracting the unique O2O-SQ factors with this qualitative analysis and integrating with the $1^{st}$ O2O-SQ model, the paper develops the final O2O-SQ model.

O2O(Online-to-Offline) 환경에서 기업은 온라인을 통해 고객을 유치하고 결제를 유도한 후 제품을 수령할 때에는 다시 오프라인으로 전환시키는 마케팅방식을 취함으로써 온라인과 오프라인 두 개 채널의 통합을 통한 시너지 효과를 창출하고자 한다. 이처럼 온라인과 오프라인이 공존하는 O2O 환경에서는 공급자가 제공하는 제품 및 서비스의 품질에 대한 소비자의 인지가 기존 온라인이나 오프라인 환경과는 다를 수밖에 없다. 이에 본 연구는 O2O 환경에서의 서비스 품질모델(service quality model)을 개발하고자 한다. 구체적으로 O2O는 오프라인, 온라인, 모바일 상거래가 통합된 환경인만큼 기존연구에서의 오프라인 서비스품질, 온라인 서비스품질, 모바일 서비스품질의 공통적인 서비스품질 요인을 통합하여 1차적인 O2O 서비스품질 모형을 제시한다. 다음으로 O2O 상거래를 이용하여 구매한 경험이 있는 고객을 대상으로 FGI(Focus Group Interview)를 실시하였다. 이는 1차 통합모형에서 제시된 O2O 서비스품질 요인 중 가장 중요하게 인지되는 서비스품질 요인을 규명하고, 또한 O2O만의 고유한 서비스품질 특성을 탐색하고자 하는 과정으로 1차 통합모형과 FGI를 통해 O2O 서비스 품질모델을 제시한다.
