The purpose of this study is to empirically measure the consumer response to mobile phone price changes in small and medium cities that have been alienated from Chinese marketing research. To do this, we measured price response through consumer survey based on conjoint analysis. The results of this study are as follows. First, it show a typical pattern in which the part-worth decreases as the price increases. This suggests that there is room for improvement in profitability through pricing strategy for small and medium cities. Second, the decrease of the utility value according to the price increase was different for each city. This implies that difference of price response by city should be used strategically when planning price tactics. This study has contributed to understanding the expansion of research subjects from large cities to small cities and the price response phenomenon of small cities. And it will provide basic data on price response to mobile phone marketers of small and medium cities.

본 논문은 조건부 가치측정법을 이용하여 MVNO 전환의사비용을 추정하고 MVNO를 통한 무선데이터서비스 활성화를 위한 바람직한 전략을 제시하고자 한다. 연구결과 이용자의 사용패턴이나 MVNO에 대한 인식여부는 MVNO 전환비용에 영향을 미치지만 서비스 만족도는 전환비용에 유의한 영향을 미치지 않았다. 이는 현 이동통신사의 만족도와 상관없이 일정수준 이상의 요금절약이 예상 될 경우 소비자는 MVNO사업자로 가입을 전환할 수 있음을 의미한다. 또한 이동통신사업자별로 가입자 전환비용에 유의한 차이가 존재하며 시장지배적사업자의 전환비용이 가장 크게 나타났다. 이는 추가적인 규제가 존재하지 않을 경우 시장지배적 사업자로 시장 쏠림현상이 일어날 가능성이 있음을 의미한다. 따라서 무선데이터서비스 활성화를 위한 MVNO사업자들의 시장점유율 확보를 위해서는 제품이나 품질의 차이보다는 요금차별화를 통한 전략적 접근이 바람직하고, 규제기관은 이동통신사업자간 상이한 가입자충성도를 고려하여 규제정책을 수립해야 할 것이다. 본 연구는 MVNO 시장확장을 위한 전략방안 마련에 활용될 수 있을 것으로 기대되며, 규제기관의 통신정책방향에 대한 시사점을 제시할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

Purpose - The purpose of the study is to reexamine the price fairness as practiced by low cost airlines, as a consumer has to experience such inconveniences as inferior airport transportation, extra fees on in-flight meals, and non-negotiable seats, and consumers evaluate such experiences keeping in mind their total costs. This evaluation includes price fairness and allows a reasonable and overall consideration of factors of low cost airlines. It tries to set up a measurement of the indicators consumers' perceptions of price fairness academically as it adapts price fairness to airline services which are renowned for price volatility. Research design, data, and methodology - The research proposes an alternative pricing strategy for the long term profit of low cost airlines after going over conflicts between the traditional theory of consumers' price perception mechanism and flexible fair policy of low cost airlines. It was meaningful when it relates to the early stage of the business, while it enhances the risks relating to the long term survival of low cost airlines. In addition, it is significant as it highlights the negative influences on consumers' perceptions of price fairness, as low cost airlines run on extremely low cost perspectives. Results - The results of the research provide insight into four perspectives, as consumers' perceptions of price fairness are influenced by the frequency and range of price changes and services. The first perspective is that it would lead to positive price evaluation when a low cost airline cuts prices frequently with little changes than one big change. It also would lead to the same result when it comes to necessary services. The second perspective is that one big increase of price would rather undermine the negative aspects of price changes than those of several smaller ones. The third perspective is that additional services would be good to consumers' perceptions of price fairness as compared to discount benefits with respect to the cost. Finally, a low cost airline should consider that consumers will change airlines or defer their flight schedule if the flight fares increase beyond their limits. Conclusions - Low cost airlines should reconsider their pricing policies for services that were provided free earlier. A consumer would not like discount benefits when made to pay for services that were, for long, free of charge. If a low cost airline can provide services with no charge, it should improve volumes if the costs are standardized and, moreover, should consider the charging fees. Alternatively, a consumer can choose between services and fair discount. Low cost airlines are implementing sales promotion strategies, as the competition is more intense than it used to be. In these days, they should regard services over sales promotion, as consumers may prefer to spend money on good premium services. Some differentiation in services could create a good market position for the airlines and, hence, good financial performance.

We are motivated by how offline and online firms compete. The Internet made many conventional offline firms build a dynamic online business as another sales channel using their advantages such as brand equity, an existing customer base with comprehensive purchasing data, integrated marketing, economies of scale, and longtime experience with the logistics of order fulfillment and customer service. Even though the hybrid selling using both offline and online channel seems to have advantages over a pure online retailer, all the conventional offline firms are not seen to create an online business. Many conventional offline firms began to launch online business since the Internet era, however, just being online business is not likely to guarantee success. According to Bizate.com's report whether the hybrid channel strategy is successful is still under investigation. For example, consider the classic case of Barnes and Noble versus Amazon.com, Barnes and Noble was already the largest chain of bookstores in the U,S., when Amazon.com was established in 1995, BarnesandNoble.com followed suit in 1997, After suffering losses in its initial years, Amazon finally turned profitable in 2003. In 2004, Amazon's net income was $588 million on revenues of $6.92 billion, while Barnes and Noble earned $143 million on revenues of $4.87 billion, which included BarnesandNoble.com's loss of $21 million on revenues of $420 million. While these examples serve to motivate our thinking, it does not explain when offline firms should venture online. It also does not provide an analytical framework that can generalized to other competitive online-offline situations. We attempt to do this in this paper and analyze a hybrid channel model where a conventional offline firm competes against online firms using its own direct online channels. We are particularly interested in an optimal channel strategy when a conventional offline firm sells its products through its own direct online channel to compete with other rival online firms. We consider two situations where its direct online channel and other online firms are symmetric and asymmetric in the brand effect. The analysis of this paper presents several findings. In the symmetric model where a hybrid firm's online channel is not differentiated from a pure online firm, (i) a conventional offline firm will not launch its online business. In the asymmetric model where a hybrid firm's online channel is differentiated from a pure online firm, (ii) a conventional offline firm can launch its online business if its brand effect is greater than a certain threshold. (iii) there is a positive relationship between its brand effect and online customer costs showing that a conventional offline firm needs more brand effect in order to launch online business as online customer costs decrease. (iv) there is a negative relationship between its brand effect and the number of customers with access to the Internet showing that a conventional offline firm tends to launch its online business when customers with access to the Internet increases.

증가하는 모바일 데이터트래픽을 수익으로 연결시키기 위해서는 지금까지의 공급자 중심의 연구가 아닌 현재의 요금수준에 대한 소비자의 만족도를 포함한 소비자의 지불의사에 대한 연구 등 수요자 입장에서의 연구가 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 이중양분선택형질문법(DBDC)에 의한 조건부 가치측정법(CVM)을 이용하여 모바일 데이터서비스에 대한 지불의사금액을 추정하고 지속가능한 모바일 데이터서비스 제공을 위한 바람직한 전략을 제시하고자 한다. 연구결과 모바일 데이터서비스 지불의사금액에 영향을 미치는 요인은 모바일 데이터서비스의 인지수준 및 효용도로 나타났으며, 소비자들의 지불의사금액은 현재의 모바일 데이터서비스 요금수준보다 상당히 낮은 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 이동통신사업자들의 수익성을 제고할 수 있는 전략은 모바일 데이터서비스에 대한 적극적인 홍보와 함께 이용자들이 필요로 하는 콘텐츠의 강화를 통해 이용자가 느끼는 모바일 데이터서비스의 효용수준을 높임으로써 소비자들의 지불의사금액을 최대화하는 것이다. 이러한 분석결과는 이동통신사업자의 이동통신 사용요금을 증가시키기 위한 전략방안 마련에 활용될 수 있을 것으로 기대되며, 정부의 통신정책 방향에 대한 시사점을 제시하는데 활용될 수 있을 것이다.

Masstige goods aimed consumers who want the fame and the emotional contents with reasonable price are presented overall and around the life style, from all the fashion items like bag and apparel to car, electric household, food, sports goods, furniture, toys, pets and performance of art, etc. Masstige casual, essentially different from the passed casuals which emphasized only price strategy, appeals to teenagers and young of twenties with a definite brand concept. Therefore masstige casual might be separated from business casual of a target aged thirties. Established celebrity brands have launched masstige brands matching the popularization of prestige goods. Armani Exchange from Armani, Marc by Marc Jacobs from Louis Vuitton are representative ones. DKNY from Donna Karen, MiuMiu from Prada, Paul smith Pink from Paul Smith can be added. These are relatively inexpensive, however the quality, design and shop's atmosphere are more exclusive than general brands. Consumers are over middle class and have a pride and fidelity to those brands. Leading Masstige trend, new luxury brands put the importance to the quality and aims middle class. To succeed in this field, companies should know exactly what consumers want, considering not only functional aspect but also emotional pleasure. Even though masstige has a weakness in pricing, it has to keep brand's proper benefit. Its price range could be wide to be in great demand but has to have elasticity and not to be expanded too much. Masstige industry should do its best not to damage original brand's identity. Forming family brand, like Armani made Georgic Armani, Emporio Armani and Armani exchange, system of parent brand and sub brands would be recommendable. From the launching time, masstige needs the effects to create a sensation and bring it into vogue and offer emotional value to the consumers.

Consumers' price related response in the clothing purchase decision-making process includes their expectation of price, price perception, attitude toward price and consequent behaviors. The purposes of this research are to systematically organize consumers' price related responses in the clothing purchase decision-making process, and to explain the effect of price on their purchasing. The qualitative research including shopping observation and in-depth interview was conducted. The result identified stages that showed different price related responses in clothing purchase decision-making process, and clarified each stage's characteristics. In the internal search stage, consumers recalled price information from memory and had a specific expectation about the price. This set a direction for the external search. In the external search stage, consumers selected brands or stores by a non-compensatory evaluating with an expectation of the price, and narrowed these down to several determinant alternatives by actively evaluating the products. In case a sufficient amount of price information was not recalled, the consumer established reference price through the external search. Finally, in the purchasing stage, consumers evaluated the determinant alternatives based on their compensatory evaluation. When perception of price was negative, consumers evaluate price combined with the higher criteria of clothing benefits, such as symbolic value and usability. The research is expected to contribute to predicting consumers' responses to price, and to establishing an effective pricing strategy.
