This study examines how consumer value and conspicuous consumption tendency influence attitudes and purchase intention toward fashion cause-related marketing products. Survey questionnaires were distributed to 326 women in their 20's to 50's living in Seoul January 2012. The instruments included measurements of consumer value, conspicuous consumption tendency, attitude toward fashion cause-related marketing products, intention to purchase fashion cause-related marketing products, and demographics. Factor analysis, correlations, and multiple regressions were conducted using SPSS 12.0. The results of this research are as follows. Consumer value affected attitude toward fashion cause-related marketing products as well as intention to purchase products. Those with a higher conspicuous consumption tendency showed a higher intention to purchase fashion cause-related marketing products, regardless of attitude toward fashion CRM products. This indicates that and association with famous prestige brands will increase the possibility of success of cause-related marketing products. The research helps establish a marketing strategy to launch new fashion cause-related marketing products by discovering the relationships between consumer consumption patterns and attitudes toward fashion cause-related marketing products.

Purpose - Ethical consumption is the action of buying one product over another with an ethical idea in mind. It has gained in popularity since the 1990s with more emphasis being put on the power of consumer actions to create social, economic, and environmental change. Ethical consumption involves boycotts of certain products or brands as well as purchases linked to ethical issues. Cause-related marketing (the buying behavior of ethical consumption) involves a for-profit and non-profit entity teaming up to promote a product at the same time as promoting a social cause. Each time a consumer buys that product, a donation is made by the for-profit entity to the non-profit entity supporting the specific cause. Cause-related marketing has become a tremendously popular type of ethical consumption in recent years owing to its reputation of allowing companies to "do well by doing good." This study examines how consumers' perception of cause and attitude influence their attitude toward a cause-related marketing campaign and attempts to suggest implications for marketers. Research design, data, and methodology - First, this study was designed to examine the consumers' perception factors (cause involvement, attitude for cause, attitude for company and brand familiarity) in order to determine whether these factors have significantly affected consumers' attitude toward a cause-related marketing campaign. Second, this study developed a structural equation model and tested it empirically using survey data from 223 individual respondents. Respondents were undergraduate students in Chungnam. They were shown an existing real campaign message of cause-related marketing, and then filled out a questionnaire. Data were analyzed with SPSS 20.0 and AMOS 17.0 programs. Results - The hypotheses were tested using factor analysis and structural equation modeling. The study's results showed that brand familiarity, attitude to the company and attitude to the cause significantly affected consumers' attitude toward the cause-related marketing campaign and performance. In particular, attitude to the cause was significantly related to attitude and performance of the cause-related marketing campaign. However, the hypothesis about cause involvement was not supported with the results indicating that cause involvement did not affect consumers' attitude toward the cause-related marketing campaign. The findings underline the importance of consumer perceptions of the cause and the company and their attitude to the cause. They point to the importance of individual differences that influence consumer perceptions of the cause, the company and brand familiarity. Also of importance is the consumer's attitude to the cause. Conclusions - The findings suggest some practical implications in designing and implementing cause-related marketing campaigns. It is important to enhance brand familiarity and create a favorable attitude to the company and attitude to the cause before designing cause-related marketing campaigns. The rising popularity of cause-related marketing has been attributed to its potential to cut through advertising clutter. The findings in this study suggest that marketing campaigns supporting a cause make a difference.

본 연구는 기업의 공익연계마케팅 정보제시형태에 따른 소비자 태도를 브랜드 수준과 한국, 중국을 중심으로 살펴보았다. 분석 결과, 첫째, 기업이 실시하는 공익 연계 마케팅 정보 제시 형태는 구체적이 추상적보다 소비자 태도가 높은 것으로 나타났다. 둘째, 공익 연계 마케팅 정보 제시 형태에 따른 소비자 태도는 실시하는 브랜드의 수준(기업 브랜드, 개별 브랜드)에 따라 다른 것으로 나타났다. 셋째, 공익 연계 마케팅 정보 제시 형태에 따른 소비자 태도는 한국과 중국에 따라 다른 것으로 나타났다. 마지막으로, 이러한 연구결과를 토대로 학문적 뿐만 아니라 마케팅 전략 수립에 기초가 되는 실무적 시사점을 제공하고자 한다.

본 연구는 기업의 공익연계마케팅 활동의 효과를 측정하기 위해 소비자의 공익연계마케팅 제품에 대한 선호도를 종속변수로 선정하여 실험을 진행하였다. 공익연계마케팅 제품에 대한 선호도에 영향을 미치는 주된 요인 중 하나인 제품 유형의 영향에 초점을 두었다. 기존 연구는 제품 유형이 공익연계마케팅의 효과에 미치는 영향에 관해 쾌락적인 제품이 실용적인 제품에 비해 공익연계마케팅의 효과가 높다고 밝혔고, 이는 죄책감의 논리로 주로 설명되었다. 그러나 상반된 연구 결과가 존재하고 죄책감의 수준은 소비자나 시장 환경의 특성에 따라 다를 수 있다는 점에서, 본 연구는 제품 유형의 영향을 심층적으로 살펴보고자 하였다. 그래서 한국과 중국 시장을 비교 대상으로 하여 국가와 제품 유형 간의 상호작용 효과를 검증하였다. 검증 결과, 유의한 효과가 존재하였고 한국과 중국 소비자 간에 제품 유형에 따른 공익연계마케팅 제품 선호도에 대한 차이가 있었다. 이와 같은 연구 결과를 바탕으로 본 연구의 시사점과 한계점 및 향후 연구방향에 대해 제시하였다.

본 연구는 S-O-R 이론과 사회적 정체성 이론을 기반으로 하여, 어떻게 원인 관련 마케팅이 소비자의 구매 의도에 영향을 미치는지를 탐구하는 것을 목표로 합니다. 306개의 설문 응답을 분석한 결과, 원인 관련 마케팅이 지각된 가치, 인지적 동일성, 그리고 구매 행동에 중요한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났습니다. 지각된 가치와 인지적 동일성은 더 나아가 구매를 촉진합니다. 원인 관련 마케팅과 소비자의 구매 의도 간의 중재자로서, 지각된 가치와 인지적 동일성은 마케팅 행동과 구매 의도 간의 연결을 강화합니다. 게다가, 강화된 지각된 가치는 소비자가 마케팅 활동에 대한 인지적 동일성을 형성하는 데 기여합니다. 이러한 연구 결과는 비즈니스 마케팅에 대한 중요한 이론적 통찰과 실용적 함의를 제공합니다.

기업이 사회에서 차지하는 역할이 갈수록 증가하면서 기업이 수행해야 할 사회적 책임역시 증가하고 있다. 과거 일부 대기업을 중심으로 수행되어왔던 기업의 사회적 책임 활동(CSR)은 이제 소비자를 접하는 모든 기업에서 중요한 기업 활동의 일환으로 평가되고 있다. 이러한 기업의 사회적 책임 활동 중 소비자의 구매활동에 직접적이며 긍정적인 영향을 미치는 대의명분 마케팅(cause-related marketing)은 특히 많은 관심을 받고 있다. 국내에서 이러한 대의명분 마케팅의 모범적인 사례가 바로 한국 암웨이의 대의명분 마케팅 사례이다. 한국 암웨이는 2000년대 중반 일부 다단계업체들의 탈법적 활동으로 인해 악화되어진 소비자들의 인식을 '뉴트리라이트 어린이 건강 지킴이' 캠페인과 같은 대의명분 마케팅 활동을 통하여 극복할 수 있었다. 본 사례에서는 한국 암웨이가 10여년에 걸쳐 수행해 오고 있는 대의명분 마케팅 활동에 대하여 살펴본다. 특히 한국 암웨이의 대의명분 활동이 타 기업들의 사회공헌활동과 차별화 될 수 있었던 구체적인 요인을 살펴본다. 마지막으로 한국 암웨이의 대의명분 마케팅 활동에 대한 향후 방향과 시사점 등을 논의하였다.

Although companies perform societal marketing activities across different cultural regions, previous research was predominantly centered on a specific cultural region-the West. To address this limitation in the literature, the current research examines societal marketing in the Chinese market considering cultural characteristics. China has become the largest market in the world with great potential growth for its vast consumer base. Since there is heterogeneity among regions in China, it is imperative to divide China into several markets for better understanding. Thus, this study investigates different responses of Chinese regional (coastal vs. inland) consumers toward Cause-related Marketing (CM). Our findings reveal that Chinese consumers, in general, prefer utilitarian CM products compared to hedonic CM products, which is the opposite result of findings of the previous research. Further, this was truer for consumers in inland regions, while coastal consumers did not display any preference by product type. The academic and practical implications, limitations, and directions for future research are discussed.
