Abstract

This study is a study on the methodology of establishing an innovation strategy centering on the customer experience, which is essential in order to transform the existing collection and preservation-centered mutual aid company service into a visitor-centered service. To this end, we conducted literature research on environmental changes in the funeral industry from the perspective of service science and the significance and value of customer experiences within them, good customer experiences and bad customer experiences from the perspective of customer experience management. A study was conducted to present and prove a specific model. The customer experience-oriented innovation strategy of the funeral industry means to search for various alternatives that can reach the target state from the present state, focusing on the customer, and select the most appropriate transformation plan among them. As an effect of application, it was found that it is a source of differentiation by generating positive emotions to customers, and that customer experience data is highly helpful in making important decisions for the actual resource input of the parent company. This innovation model was presented, and its value was firstly proved by analyzing the difference from the existing evaluation method. Finally, as a result of analyzing the causal relationship through regression analysis using the customer experience measurement procedure, customer experience diagnosis/evaluation, customer experience innovation strategy, and cooperative company's performance as variables, the relationship proved to be significant.

본 연구는 기존의 장례의식 중심의 상조기업 비즈니스가 조문객과 상주 중심의 서비스로 변모하기 위해 반드시 필요한 고객경험 중심 혁신전략 방법론에 관한 연구이다. 이를 위해서 서비스사이언스 관점에서 장례산업의 환경변화와 그 안에서의 고객경험 의의 및 가치, 고객경험관리 차원의 긍정적 고객경험, 부정적 고객경험 등의 문헌 연구를 수행하였고, 상조회사의 고객경험 혁신을 위한 구체적인 모델을 제시하고 입증하기 위한 연구를 수행하였다. 장례산업의 고객경험 혁신 전략의 의미는 현재 상태에서 목표 상태에 도달할 수 있는 여러 대안을 고객을 중심으로 탐색하고 그 중 최적의 전환 계획을 선택하는 것이다. 적용효과는 고객의 선호적인 감정을 유발시켜 차별화를 만들어내는 핵심이 되며, 고객경험 데이터가 상조회사의 경제적 관점의 자원 투입에 중요한 의사결정에 높은 도움이 된다는 것이다. 이와 같은 상조회사 혁신모델을 제시하였다. 고객중심의 상조서비스를 분석하여 그 가치를 연구하였다. 마지막으로 고객경험에 대한 측정 절차, 진단/평가, 혁신전략, 상조기업의 성과를 변수로 활용하여 단순회귀분석 기반으로 인과관계를 분석하였고, 결과적으로 관계가 유의미하다는 것이 설명되었다.
