Abstract

According to the Internet Usage Research performed in 2016, the number of internet users and the internet usage have been increasing. Smartphone, compared to the computer, is taking a more dominant role as an internet access device. As the number of smart devices have been increasing, some views that the demand on high-speed internet will decrease; however, Despite the increase in smart devices, the high-speed Internet market is expected to slightly increase for a while due to the speedup of Giga Internet and the growth of the IoT market. As the broadband Internet market saturates, telecom operators are over-competing to win new customers, but if they know the cause of customer exit, it is expected to reduce marketing costs by more effective marketing. In this study, we analyzed the relationship between the cancellation rates of telecommunication products and the factors affecting them by combining the data of 3 cities, Anyang, Gunpo, and Uiwang owned by a telecommunication company with the regional data from KOSIS(Korean Statistical Information Service). Especially, we focused on the assumption that the neighboring areas affect the distribution of the cancellation rates by coupling type, so we conducted spatial cluster analysis on the 3 types of cancellation rates of each region using the spatial analysis tool, SatScan, and analyzed the various relationships between the cancellation rates and the regional data. In the analysis phase, we first summarized the characteristics of the clusters derived by combining spatial information and the cancellation data. Next, based on the results of the cluster analysis, Variance analysis, Correlation analysis, and regression analysis were used to analyze the relationship between the cancellation rates data and regional data. Based on the results of analysis, we proposed appropriate marketing methods according to the region. Unlike previous studies on regional characteristics analysis, In this study has academic differentiation in that it performs clustering based on spatial information so that the regions with similar cancellation types on adjacent regions. In addition, there have been few studies considering the regional characteristics in the previous study on the determinants of subscription to high-speed Internet services, In this study, we tried to analyze the relationship between the clusters and the regional characteristics data, assuming that there are different factors depending on the region. In this study, we tried to get more efficient marketing method considering the characteristics of each region in the new subscription and customer management in high-speed internet. As a result of analysis of variance, it was confirmed that there were significant differences in regional characteristics among the clusters, Correlation analysis shows that there is a stronger correlation the clusters than all region. and Regression analysis was used to analyze the relationship between the cancellation rate and the regional characteristics. As a result, we found that there is a difference in the cancellation rate depending on the regional characteristics, and it is possible to target differentiated marketing each region. As the biggest limitation of this study and it was difficult to obtain enough data to carry out the analyze. In particular, it is difficult to find the variables that represent the regional characteristics in the Dong unit. In other words, most of the data was disclosed to the city rather than the Dong unit, so it was limited to analyze it in detail. The data such as income, card usage information and telecommunications company policies or characteristics that could affect its cause are not available at that time. The most urgent part for a more sophisticated analysis is to obtain the Dong unit data for the regional characteristics. Direction of the next studies be target marketing based on the results. It is also meaningful to analyze the effect of marketing by comparing and analyzing the difference of results before and after target marketing. It is also effective to use clusters based on new subscription data as well as cancellation data.

"2016 인터넷이용실태조사"에 따르면 인터넷 이용자수 및 이용률은 점점 증가하고 있으며 접속방법에 있어서는 컴퓨터보다 스마트폰을 통한 접속이 많아지고 있다. 스마트기기의 증가에 따라 초고속인터넷의 수요가 감소할 것이라는 전망도 있다. 하지만, 스마트기기의 증가에도 불구하고 기가인터넷을 통한 속도 향상과 IoT 시장의 성장으로 인해 초고속인터넷 시장은 당분간 유지될 것으로 전망된다. 시장의 포화로 인해 통신사업자들이 신규고객 확보를 위해 과도한 경쟁을 하고 있지만, 고객이탈의 원인을 알 수 있다면 보다 효과적인 마케팅을 통해 과도한 마케팅비용을 절감할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다. 본 연구에서는 통신사업자 A사가 보유하고 있는 안양시, 군포시, 의왕시 3개 도시의 결합유형별 해지 데이터와, 통계청으로부터 구한 지역별 데이터를 결합하여, 지역별 해지율과 이에 영향을 미치는 지역특성간의 관계를 분석하고자 하였다. 특히 인접지역에 따라 결합유형별 해지율의 분포에 차이가 있을 것으로 보고, 클러스터링을 이용하여 해지유형이 유사한 지역을 도출 및 분석하고자 하였다. 공간검색통계도구인 SatScan은 기존의 클러스터링 방법에 공간정보를 추가하여 인접지역을 중심으로 군집이 형성되도록 한다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 SatScan을 이용해 지역의 공간정보를 기반으로 유사지역을 군집화하고, 군집별 해지율과 지역별 데이터와의 연관성을 분석하였다. 분석 단계에서는 먼저 공간정보와 해지데이터를 결합하여 도출된 군집들의 특성을 정리하였으며, 다음으로 군집분석 결과를 바탕으로 하여 각 동의 초고속 인터넷 해지율과 지역별 데이터와의 연관성을 분산분석, 상관분석, 회귀분석을 이용하여 분석하였다. 그리고, 분석결과를 기반으로 하여 지역에 따른 적절한 마케팅 방안을 제안하였다.
