This study explored choice attributes in specially coffee shops and examined the relations between choice attributes and positive emotions customers felt in specially coffee shops. The study also attempted to find differences in choice attributes and positive emotions according to general characteristics of customers and coffee-drinking behavior. Measured items were derived from preliminary interviews and a literature review. Questionnaires were distributed to customers in Seoul who had visited a specially coffee shop in the last 3 months. The derived factors of choice attributes were 'taste of coffee and atmosphere', 'brand', 'price benefit', 'pleasant space', and 'coffee itself. Among those, the two factors 'taste of coffee and atmosphere', and 'brand' had a statistically significant influence on positive emotions of customers. This implies that specially coffee shop customers have primarily emotional rather than utilitarian motivations. Therefore, to better satisfy customers' desires, more effort is needed to improve the physical environment in coffee shops. Female and younger customers showed higher perception of price benefits than others did. The perception of price benefits and pleasant space mainly varied by the location of coffee-drinking and frequency of visiting specially coffee shops. Further differences in positive emotion according to general characteristics and behaviors of having coffee also discussed.

브랜드는 자신의 상품이나 서비스를 다른 경쟁사와 구별해서 표시하기 위해 사용하는 명칭을 의미하고, 브랜드 이미지는 소비자가 특정기업의 브랜드에 대해 가지고 있는 좋고 나쁜 느낌 또는 브랜드에 대한 신념 등으로 정의된다. 소비자는 제품을 구입할 때 제품이 주는 브랜드의 가치에 따라 제품을 선택한다. 이러한 관점에서 기업의 브랜드가 가져다주는 자산 가치는 기업의 성공을 가늠할 수 있는 정도의 중요한 요소이다. 브랜드이미지는 소비자들에게 기업과 상품을 판매하는데 영향을 주는 매우 중요한 부분이다. 특히 호텔산업은 고객에게 인기와 신뢰를 획득하여 장기간에 걸쳐 많은 고객을 창출해야 하고 유지해야 하므로, 기능적 가치를 초월하여 의미적 가치가 중요시되는 산업이다. 이미지를 마케팅 환경 관리 면에서 중요시하는 것은 가격과 제품수준의 표준화로 인하여 제품 자체만으로는 차별화가 쉽지 않기 때문에 기업이미지는 사회가 고도 산업사회가 될수록 더욱 중요한 마케팅 요소로서 작용하며, 소비자의 구매행동에 있어 기업에 대한 이미지 요소를 중시하는 경향이 많아지고 있다. 기업 브랜드이미지의 인식이나 차별화에 성공할 경우 소비자는 다른 기업의 광고나 홍보보다 더 오래 기억하게 되고 아울러 신뢰도도 높아지게 된다. 오늘날 대부분의 호텔들은 그들의 기업 브랜드이미지에 대한 중요성을 인식하고 있으면서도 그에 따른 깊이 있는 연구와 체계적인 대응 전략을 제대로 시행하고 있지 못하고 있는 것이 현실이다. 본 연구에서는 호텔 브랜드 차별화의 한 전략으로 호텔 브랜드 이미지와 선택속성이 고객의 구매의도에 미치는 영향에 대해 알아보고자 한다. 실증조사의 조사기간은 2004년 4월 23일부터 5월 20일까지 실시하였고, 조사지역 및 조사대상은 대구지역에 위치한 호텔을 이용하는 일반소비자로서 미리 작성된 설문지를 가지고 조사하였다. 결론적으로 호텔 브랜드이미지를 결정하는 가장 중요한 요인으로 호텔 직원들의 서비스 및 호텔의 명성으로 나타났으며, 또한, 호텔 이용객들이 호텔 선택 시 결정적인 영향을 미친다고 볼 수 있다.

기존의 유인효과와 타협효과에 관한 선행연구들은 제품이나 서비스에 대한 실험에서 시작되어 사물을 이용한 연구, 여행상품의 연구, 종업원 채용 과정에서의 연구 그리고 실제 미국 대통령 선거를 대상으로 한 실증적 연구 등으로 진행되었다. 하지만 대부분의 연구가 범위 빈도 이론에 국한될 뿐 타협효과와 유인 효과를 프로모션 유형과 접목시킨 연구는 없는 실정이다. 본 연구의 목적은 이러한 브랜드선택 과정에서 선택구조인 유인효과와 타협효과가 프로모션 유형에 따라 어떻게 달라지는가를 검증하는데 있다. 유인효과와 타협효과의 영향력의 차이를 실험하였다. 조작된 변수는 다음과 같이 독립변인 (1) 브랜드 선택(유인효과/타협효과), (2) 프로모션 유형(가격프로모션/비가격프로모션)이다. 본 연구는 피험자 간 실험설계와 함께 각 집단마다 피험자 내 조작이 함께 사용되었다. 본 연구의 결과는 신규 브랜드의 진입에 의해 그와 비슷한 기존 브랜드의 점유율이 오히려 높아지는 현상으로, 실무적 차원인 프로모션 전략 등 여러 가지 신제품의 포지셔닝 전략에 대한 시사점을 제공할 수 있으리라 본다.

The purposes of this study were (1) to understand how customers trade off one attribute against another when they choose a pizza restaurant, (2) to compare the importance of individual attributes with their relative importance and (3) to compare customers'brand choice patterns with the prediction of pizza restaurant operators. Empirical data for this study were collected from the customers (n=307) and operators (n=273) of flour famous pizza franchise restaurants in Korea, Pizza Hut, Mister Pizza, Domino's Pizza and Pizza Mall. The attributes and attribute levels for the hypothetical profiles were decided from the focus group discussion. A total of 16 profiles was selected from fractional factorial designs. The SPSS conjoint procedure was used to calculate utility scores and simulate profiles. The overall group statistics showed the relative importance of all attributes compared with one other. Taste was the most important attribute (32.48%) in choosing a pizza restaurant, followed by service (21.87%) , atmosphere (17.23%), price (15.17%) and speed of delivery (13.26%). There was a difference between the customers'ratings of the importance of the individual attributes and the ranking of the same attributes'relative importance as derived from the conjoint analysis. The operators rated service (26.54%) as also being important, as well as taste (27.76%), in choosing a pizza restaurant. The rankings of relative importance for pizza taste, service and price were statistically different in the customers'and operators'data (p < 0.001, p < 0.1, p < 0.5). Operators who want to differentiate themselves from their competitors should make decisions based on an increased understanding of their customers'brand choice decision process and measure the hidden needs of their customers.

The study used a sample data of 250 individuals and SPSS software was used to analyze the data. The results showed that customer policy has a positive effect on customers' deposit decisions in a bank, and this is new evidence regarding behavioral theory in the case of Vietnam.

The results will help bakery franchisees and franchisers in devising appropriate strategies for successfully managing their bakery shops. Research design, data, and methodology - The VMD model for bakery shops comprises harmony, attractiveness, suitability, pandemic, functionality, and reliability. Further, brand equity encompasses brand awareness, perceived quality, and brand image. In this study, the VMD factors of bakery shops are used as independent variables, while brand equity and brand attitude are used as dependent variables. This study aims to ascertain the extent of the influence VMD components of bakery shops have on brand equity and brand attitude. Regression analysis was used to verify those effects. The measurement items, deemed reliable and valid in a previous study, were modified for this study. Questionnaires were distributed to 500 consumers nationwide, of whom 340 were used for the sample. The SPSS 19.0 statistical program was used for the analysis. Results - First, among the VMD bakery shop components, harmony, attractiveness, and pandemic have a positive impact on brand equity (brand awareness and brand image). Second, amongst the VMD components of bakery shops, attractiveness, pandemic, and reliability have a positive impact on brand equity (perceived quality). Third, amongst the VMD components of bakery shops, harmony, attractiveness, and reliability have a positive impact on brand attitude. Fourth, brand equity (brand awareness, brand image, and perceived quality) have a positive effect on brand attitude. Conclusions - This study identifies the relationships between the VMD components of a bakery shop and brand equity and attitude in order to propose a new model. The study has several practical implications. First, the development of brand equity and management can be important components in bakery shops' determination of whether their VMD components have an impact on brand equity. Second, among VMD components, harmony and attractiveness have a positive influence on the choice of bakery shop, while reliability and pandemic have a partly positive influence on the choice of bakery shop. Therefore, store atmospheres should be attractively designed, and store menus and interiors should be reviewed periodically to conform to the latest trends. This study suggests marketing strategies for brand equity formation. First, providing collateral product quality, hygiene, and safety benefits as well as product offerings to complement the season and employees' services should be considered. Second, display methods, illumination designs, and new product ideas should be periodically reviewed. Third, these should complement the overall harmony of the interior and exterior and of the store atmosphere in order to be attractive. Funds should thus be dedicated specifically for the facilities and their interiors. Fourth, it is necessary to build a friendly and relaxed image that can be easily called to mind by the customers.
