초록

본 연구의 목적은 농촌관광의 관계마케팅 활동요인들에 대해서 살펴보고 관계마케팅 활동요인들과 충성도 간의 관계에서 고객지각가치의 매개효과를 살펴보는 것이다. 본 연구는 농촌관광을 경험한 고객들을 대상으로 설문조사를 실시하였고 이를 분석한 실증분석 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 탐색적 요인분석에 의해 농촌관광의 관계마케팅 활동요인들은 고객지향성, 응답유인성, 전문성, 유대관계의 4개 요인으로 분리되었다. 둘째, 고객지향성, 응답유인성, 전문성, 유대관계는 모두 충성도에 유의한 정(+)의 영향을 주는 것으로 나타났다. 셋째, 응답유인성과 전문성은 고객지각가치에 유의한 정(+)의 영향을 주는 것으로 밝혀졌다. 하지만, 고객지향성과 유대관계는 고객지각가치에 유의한 영향을 주지 않는 것으로 밝혀졌다. 넷째, 고객지각가치는 응답유인성과 충성도 간의 관계에서 완전매개효과를 보이는 반면 전문성과 충성도 간의 관계에서는 부분매개효과를 보이는 것으로 나타났다. 추가적으로 통제변수인 성별은 충성도에 영향을 주지 않지만 고객지각가치에는 유의한 영향을 주는 것으로 밝혀졌다. 즉, 여성이 남성에 비해 농촌관광에 대한 고객지각가치가 낮은 것으로 조사되었다. 농촌관광의 충성도를 향상시키기 위해서 고객지각가치와 아울러 고객지향성, 전문성, 유대관계를 향상시킬 필요가 있다.

This study aims to identify the relationship marketing factors and examine the mediating factors of perceived customer value on the relationship between relationship marketing factors and loyal on rural tourism. We collected and analyzed the survey data from the customers who had experienced rural tourism before. The results from the empirical analysis are as follows. First, through the exploratory factor analysis, four factors such as customer orientation, responsive attraction, professionalism, and ties were derived. Second, it was found all four factors have significant positive effects on loyalty. Third, both responsive attraction and professionalism have significant positive effects on perceived customer value. However, customer orientation and ties do not have significant effects. Fourth, the perceived customer value showed a full mediating effect between responsive attraction and loyalty, whereas it showed a partial mediating effect between professionalism and loyalty. Additionally, it was found that gender did not affect loyalty but significantly affected perceived customer value. This means that women had lower perceived value for rural tourism than men. To improve the loyalty of rural tourism, it is necessary to improve customer orientation, professionalism, ties, and perceived customer value.
