The purpose of the study was to investigate customer loyalty programs of diverse types of retailers. As offline retailers, department store and discount store retailers were examined, and as nonstore retailers, online store and TV home shopping retailers were investigated. Types of customer loyalty programs were analyzed based on Dowling and Uncles'(1997) loyalty program framework which included two schemes, types of reward(direct versus indirect rewards) and timing of reward(immediate versus delayed rewards). The study found that different types of retailers utilized different types of loyalty programs: Department store used all the type of rewards, discount store focused on direct/immediate rewards, online store retailers used direct/delayed rewards and/or direct/immediate rewards, and TV home shopping retailers focused on direct/delayed rewards. The study provided diverse managerial and academic implications.

This study identified types of online retail internationalization in the fast-fashion context and proposed driving factors of retailers' choices in online-based market entry following the logic of the Uppsala model and the eclectic theory. In particular, this study proposes three types of online-based internationalization: 1) entering a host market with a physical store first, and then expanding with an online store, 2) entering a foreign market with an online store, then expanding to physical stores, and 3) entering only with an online business. In addition, this study investigated the causal factors, ownership-specific and location advantages, that influence the choice of the type of developmental process of online-based internationalization. To develop theoretical and managerial insights into the issue researched, this study employed a qualitative research design involving case studies of three European fast-fashion retailers, H&M, TOPSHOP, and ASOS. This study suggested that fast-fashion retailers that enter a host market with high ownership-specific advantages are likely to choose to enter the market with physical stores and then expand with online stores. On the other hand, when faced with uncertainties attributable to low ownership-specific or location advantages, fast-fashion retailers are likely to choose to enter with an online store first and then expand with physical stores as conditions change. Consequently, this study provides a better understanding for fast-fashion retailers who are willing to expand their businesses to foreign markets via online stores.

Website design (due to increased online retailing) has received more attention as a way to influence consumer responses (Eroglu et al., 2001, 2003; Kim et al., 2009; Kim & Lennon, 2008; Yoo et al., 2010); however, the website design of multichannel retailers has not been examined from the perspective of the consistency of online store image with the brand image. This study examines the effect of brand image consistency (especially through the website) on consumer attitude and patronage intentions. The findings of this research will add to the growing body of literature on multichannel retailing and provide practical information for online retailers in the development of a website for their online business.

The proliferation of the Internet and related technologies has led to a new form of distribution channels, namely online retailers. The conventional offline and the new online retailers have different transaction costs perceived by the consumers in the following perspectives: the accessibility to the product information, the traffic cost and the opportunity cost for the time to visit the store, the delivery time and the possibility of 'touch and feel' to test the quality of the product. In particular, the online retailers have lower distribution cost structure in that they do not have physical stores, which results in lower selling price. Thus they continuously offer price competition against offline retailers using the lower selling cost as competitive weapon. Moreover the emergence of the social commerce is likely to intensify the competition between the online and offline retailers. To survive in this fierce competition, the offline retailers are trying to defend their business interests by sticking to offline transaction in anticipation of increased customer loyalty, customer's preference for 'touch and feel' style shopping, and others. Despite of these efforts, customers who touch and feel a product in an offline store but purchase the product through an online retailer are increasing. To protect such customers, recently, some of the offline retailers began to provide the mobile discount service (MDS) which enables the offline customers to purchase a product at a discounted price through the mobile applications. In business competitions, the price discount strategy is usually considered to secure more market share at the cost of lower profit. In this study, however, we analyze the effect of MDS as a weapon for securing more profit. To do this, we set up a game model between the online and offline retailers which incorporates the effect of the MDS. By numerically analyzing the Nash equilibrium of the game, some managerial implications for using the MDS for more profit are discussed.

온라인 시장의 매출 성장률은 오프라인 시장을 크게 앞지르고 있으며 그 원인은 상점의 개인화를 통한 쇼핑 시간 절약, 상대적 편이성으로 알려져 있다. 온라인 상점의 개인화는 인터넷, 웹 테크놀로지가 제공하는 고객 쇼핑 행태에 관한 다양하고 상세한 고객의 쇼핑 데이터의 사용으로 가능하다. 과거에는 오프라인 상점에게 이와 같은 데이터가 제공될 수 없었으나, 최근 확산되고 있는 RFID 기술은 오프라인 상점에게 상점의 개인화라는 새로운 기회와 가능성을 제공한다. 본 논문에서는 오프라인 상점이 온라인 상점과의 상대적 경쟁력 향상을 위하여 그들 상점의 개인화에 사용할 수 있는 BRIMPS(BRIck-and-Mortar Personalization System) 시스템을 제안한다.

본 연구에서는 우리나라 소매업태의 경영성과에 대한 문제를 다룬다. TV홈쇼핑과 온라인쇼핑을 대표적 사업으로 구성된 무점포통신판매 업태는 2000년대 10년 동안 매우 빠르게 성장하였다. 2010년대의 대략 6년 동안은 온라인쇼핑 사업 모델의 다양화와 경쟁심화 그리고 오프라인쇼핑 소매업의 진입에 의한 경쟁의 확산이 가속화 되었다. 이 같은 2001~2016년의 분석기간 동안에 무점포통신판매업은 오프라인쇼핑 소매업의 비교 업태(백화점, 종합소매업, 일반소매업)보다도 높은 경영성과를 보여주었음을 통계적으로 검정하였다. 성장성과 활동성의 일부 경영성과 지표의 유의미한 차이는 소매업태의 자본구조와 운영구조에 의해 예상되는 점이라고 볼 수 있었다. 특히 무점포통신판매업의 업태를 구성하는 사업체는 다양한 판매 매체와 이질적 사업 모델을 가진다는 점에서 영업이익률과 재고회전율의 지표에 대한 연구 결과의 의미와 향후 경영성과 관리에 대한 추가적 논의 점을 제시하였다.

Purpose: Consumers have unique behaviors that are classified based on their interests and considerations before buying. They are predicted will change due to the pandemic of COVID-19. This study provides insights for retailers about the dynamic of consumer behavior before and during the pandemic, including future predictions. Research design, data and methodology: The Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA) statement was applied in this study. Seven studies that were selected from five databases meet the criteria for cohort and cross-sectional analyses of gender, age, store types, and environmental concerns. Results: Consumer's gender and age contribute to consumer behavior change. Both offline and online stores can be integrated as omnichannel rather than substitute each other. Product distribution and consumer budget need to be reevaluated by retailers, while internet security is the most essential factor when developing their online transactions. Conclusions: COVID-19 pandemic has a significant impact on changing consumer behavior in most countries. Retailers are encouraged to adapt to the changes by modifying their business model with technology. However, it is still speculated and cannot be generalized due to different cultural and contextual factors. Future studies are always needed to synchronize along with the transition of consumers' behavior.
