Abstract

With the rapid development of mobile communication tools, customers are using SNS as a major information tool. SNS can provide information to a small number of customers as well as people around them, with information about a product or service that a small number of customers know through experience. With these characteristics, dessert cafes are being used as a major marketing tool for online websites and mobile phones using SNS. Therefore, in this study, theoretical considerations about e-WOM quality, perceived value, and visit intention were performed. The effect of e-WOM quality of dessert cafe on perceived value was analyzed and the effect of perceived value on visit intention was analyzed. Based on these results, I would like to suggest theoretical implications and practical implications for online marketing of dessert cafes. This study was conducted to survey the customers who have visited dessert cafe through oral communication within the last 6 months. The survey was conducted from September 4, 2018 to September 18, 2018, and was used for the analysis of 317 additional items. The research hypotheses between the e-WOM quality of the dessert cafe and the utilitarian value, hedonic value, and visiting intention were used the structural equation model(SEM). First, neutrality and interactivity have a significant effect on utilitarian value, but consensus and vividness have not significant effect. Second, It was found that the consensus, vividness, and neutrality had a significant effect on the hedonic value but interactivity was not found to have a significant effect. Third, hedonic value has a significant effect on visit intention, but utilitarian value has not significant effect. As a result, online e-WOM quality management is important.

모바일 커뮤니케이션 도구의 급속한 발전으로 고객은 SNS를 주요 정보 도구로 이용하고 있다. SNS는 소수의 고객이 경험을 통해 알고 있는 제품이나 서비스와 관련된 정보를 주변 사람뿐 만 아니라 다수의 고객에게 제공할 수 있다. 이러한 특성으로 디저트 카페는 온라인 웹사이트와 SNS를 이용한 모바일이 주요 마케팅 수단으로 이용되고 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 구전 품질, 지각된 가치, 그리고 방문의도에 대한 이론적 고찰을 토대로 디저트 카페의 구전 품질이 지각된 가치에 어떠한 영향을 미치는지와 지각된 가치가 방문의도에 미치는 영향을 분석하여 디저트 카페의 온라인 마케팅에 대한 이론적 시사점과 실무적 시사점을 제시하고자 한다. 본 연구는 최근 6개월 이내에 구전을 통해 디저트 카페를 방문한 경험이 있는 고객을 대상으로 설문조사가 실시되었다. 설문조사는 2018년 9월 4일부터 9월 18일까지 실시되었으며, 317부가 분석에 이용되었다. 디저트 카페의 구전 품질이 실용적 가치와 쾌락적 가치, 그리고 방문 의도 간의 관계는 구조방정식 모형을 이용하였다. 분석 결과, 첫째, 중립성과 상호작용성은 실용적 가치에 유의한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났으나, 동의성과 생생함은 유의한 영향을 미치지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 둘째, 동의성, 생생함, 그리고 상호작용성은 쾌락적 가치에 유의한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났으나, 상호작용성은 유의한 영향을 미치지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 셋째, 쾌락적 가치는 방문의도에 유의한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났으나, 실용적 가치는 유의한 영향을 미치지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 결과로 온라인 구전 품질 관리가 중요한 것을 알 수 있다.
