오늘날의 경제는 모든 영역의 경계가 허물어짐에 따라 서로 다른 산업 간의 융복합화가 활발해지며 이는 모바일, 소셜 네트워크 서비스 등의 혁신을 이루어내고 있다. 이러한 기술혁명가운데 모바일과 인터넷의 장점을 결합하여 금융과 IT의 업무를 손쉽게 처리할 수 있는 오늘날 새로운 기술을 핀테크라 하며 이러한 핀테크는 금융을 의미하는 파이낸스(Finance)와 기술을 의미하는 테크놀로지(Technology)의 합성어이다. 이에 본 연구는 핀테크 이용 동기(유용성, 즐거움)가 이용자 태도, 구전의도에 미치는 영향의 전반적인 구조적 관계에 대하여 살펴보았다. 이와 더불어 혁신저항 성향에 따라 핀테크 이용 동기, 이용자 태도, 구전 의도는 어떻게 달라지는지 살펴보았다. 또한, 메시지 유형(이성적, 감성적)에 따라 핀테크 이용 동기, 이용자 태도, 구전 의도는 어떻게 달라지는지 살펴보았다. 한편, 본 연구의 주요결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째로, 핀테크 이용 동기요인의 유용성과 즐거움은 사용자태도에 긍정적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났으며 이용자 태도 또한 구전의도에 긍정적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 둘째로, 핀테크 이용 동기, 이용자 태도, 구전의도간의 관계는 소비자들의 혁신저항에 따라 차이가 나는 것으로 밝혀졌다. 셋째로, 핀테크 이용 동기, 이용자 태도, 구전의도간의 관계는 메시지 유형(이성적, 감성적)에 따라 차이가 나는 것으로 밝혀졌다. 연구의 결론 부분에서는 연구결과의 요약, 시사점 및 한계점, 그리고 향후 연구방향에 대해서 기술하였다.

Following is discovered in this study by some. First, attribute(product/non- product) of that truth that get through experiment of this study is WOM deduced result that have statistical meaning in dependent variable which is public trust only in this study. Specially, information by word of mouth type received High positive response more with non-product information by word of mouth attribute than the product attribute in all experiment products that is parted according to involvement. Consumer's response by involvement level of product can affect for site attitude, public trust, and intention to purchase by second. For example, consumer's site attitude has induced the most positive response, and can confirm positive response of High consumer most in that involvement sensitivity product in that participation reason type product and could confirm response that is the most positive in that involvement reason product even if there is for intention to purchase. Result of this study is grasped that have High mean value relatively in site attitude, product attitude, information by word of mouth effect, public trust, brand attitude, purchase intention etc. generally that product involvement and information by word of mouth attribute are interrelation by third. This can change fairly data processing process according to consumer's Involvement Level, behavior deterministic process, consumer's action with attitude formation process, and involvement for products. High occasion than is low incline more efforts in information retrieval and is discreet result such as study finding of produce.

소비자들의 구매과정에서 타인으로부터 수집되는 구전정보는 소비자의 제품에 대한 태도와 구매행동에 영향을 미치게 된다. 소비자들이 인지하는 구전정보 특성들 중 신뢰성은 매우 중요한 요소이다. 특히 소비자들은 신뢰할 수 있는 구전채널의 정보를 선호하는 경향이 있다. 본 연구에서는 구전정보의 채널유형이 오프라인 또는 온라인으로 제시되는 각각의 상황에서, 소비자 제품태도에 미치는 영향에 있어 차이가 존재하는지, 더불어 제품관여도 및 성별에 따른 집단 간 차이가 존재하는지를 살펴보았다. 연구결과 구전정보 채널유형(온라인/오프라인)이 소비자 태도에 미치는 영향은 온라인보다 오프라인에서 더 강하게 나타났다. 또한 구전정보 채널유형과 소비자 제품태도의 관계에서 소비자 제품관여도의 조절효과는 유의한 것으로 나타났지만, 성별의 조절효과는 유의하지 않은 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 결과를 통해 기업은 소비자들을 대상으로 한 구전전략에서도 충분한 세분화전략을 고려하여야 하며, 구전의 채널이 온라인에 머무르지 않고 오프라인으로 확대 될 수 있는 방안을 모색해야 한다.

Thus, bakery franchises need to improve strengths and differentiate characteristics of their brand, thereby attracting more consumers. Therefore, this study investigates relationships the effect of brand hearsay on consumers' brand attitude and brand loyalty in the context of franchised bakery brands. Research design, data, and methodology: A research model was proposed to examine structural relationships between brand hearsay (advertising, publicity, word-of-mouth), brand attitude, and brand loyalty. An online survey was conducted to consumers who had an experience of visiting a franchise bakery. A total of 513 responses were used for data analysis. SPSS 22.0 was used for analyzing general demographics, and SmartPLS 4.0 was used to test validity and reliability of the proposed model. Result: Among attributes of brand hearsay, advertisement and word-of-mouth had positively significant effects on brand attitude, but no significant effect was found between publicity and attitude. Advertisement had a positively significant impact on brand loyalty, while publicity had a negative effect on brand loyalty opposite to hypothesis. Moreover, brand attitude had a statistically significant effect on brand loyalty. Conclusions: In the context of franchise bakeries, brand hearsay contents may change consumers' attitude toward brands but does not increase brand loyalty. Though media publicity does not affect consumers' attitude toward brands, it may decrease brand loyalty when consumers are too exposed to it. In addition, it is necessary to enhance brand attitude to increase brand loyalty of customers. This study provides bakery franchisors and franchisees information about which type of brand hearsay (e.g., advertisement, word-of-mouth, media, publicity) is effective in enhancing brand attitudes and loyalty of consumers. Further studies may include other variables (e.g., trust) in addition to attitude and loyalty, or compare findings based on brand characteristics (e.g., low-to-medium/high prices, store size).
