Although various recommendation techniques have been applied to the e-commerce market, few studies compare the intent to use these techniques from the customer's perspective. In this paper, we conduct a comparative analysis of customers' intention to use five recommendation techniques widely adapted by online shopping malls and focus on the differences in purchasing electronic goods and apparel products. The recommendation techniques are as follows: best-seller recommendation, merchandiser recommendation, content-based recommendation, collaborative filtering recommendation, and social recommendation. Additionally, we examine which factors influence customer intent to use the recommendation services. Data were collected through a survey administered to 220 e-commerce users with prior experience with recommendation services. Collected data were examined using analysis of variance and regression analysis. Results indicate statistically significant differences in customers' intention to use recommendation services according to the recommendation technique. In particular, the best-seller recommendation technique is preferred when purchasing electronic goods, whereas the content-based recommendation technique is preferred for apparel purchases. Factors such as personal characteristics and personality, purchasing tendency, as well as perception of the product or recommendation service affect a customer's intention to use a recommendation service. However, the influence of these factors varies depending on the recommendation technique. This study provides guidelines for companies to adopt appropriate recommendation techniques according to product categories and personal characteristics of customers.

성공적인 창업을 위해서는 창업가의 준비가 선행되어야 하지만, 매력적인 사업 아이디어의 계발이 뒤따라야 한다. 그러나 지금까지의 창업연구는 창업행동과 사업성과에 영향을 미치는 창업가 요인에 치우쳐 있으며, 사업 아이디어의 계발과 평가에 대한 연구는 부족한 실정이다. 이 연구는 고객이 상품을 구매하기 전 인터넷 검색엔진에서 해당 상품에 대한 검색을 하는 경우가 일반화되고 있다는 사실과 고객이 검색엔진에 입력하는 키워드는 고객의 의도를 대변한다는 사실을 기초로, 키워드로 표현된 사업 아이디어의 매력도를 객관적으로 측정하는 방법을 제시하는 것을 목적으로 한다.이 연구는 키워드로 표현된 사업 아이디어 매력도(BIA)를 구매의도를 가진 잠재고객의 자사 웹 사이트 방문수로 정의한다. 키워드로 표현된 사업 아이디어 매력도(BIA)는 [해당 키워드의 조회수(Q) ${\times}$ 구매의도 비율(R) / 경쟁 사이트의 수(S)]의 수식으로 나타낼 수 있으며, 수식을 구성하는 변수 중에서 해당 키워드의 조회수(Q)와 경쟁 사이트의 수(S)는 검색엔진에서 쉽게 제공 받을 수 있으므로, 구매의도 비율(R)만 알 수 있다면 BIA를 비교적 정확히 추정할 수 있다. 연구자는 특정 분야 키워드 100개를 선정한 다음, 전문가로 하여금 각 키워드의 구매의도 비율(R)을 추정하게 하고, 전문가 추정 없이도 구매의도 비율을 예측할 수 있도록 각 키워드의 구매의도 비율(R)을 예측하는 주요 데이터를 의사결정 나무 기법으로 도출하고, 의사결정 나무 기법으로 도출된 데이터로 구성된 회귀식을 제시함으로써 키워드로 표현된 사업 아이디어 매력도(BIA)를 객관적으로 평가하는 방법을 제시한다. 이 연구는 사업 아이디어의 계발과 평가에 대한 객관적인 기준을 제시함으로써 창업의 성공률을 높이는 데 기여할 수 있고, 창업연구에 새로운 방법론을 도입했다는 점에서 의의가있다.
