Corporate social media has been recently used in customer relationship management in many ways to improve product sales and company images. Not much research exists on corporate social media, Therefore, in this paper, we propose a research model to identify how corporate social media enhances corporate's CRM quality, resulting in forming customer's purchase intention. In detail, this paper is to examine how customer's perceived value of corporate social media influences CRM quality(CRM trust and CRM commitment), and then how CRM quality affects purchase intention. To this end, a total of 300 questionnaires were used from online panel respondents to test research hypothesis. The findings showed that service performance value and monetary value were major determinants of CRM trust, however, there was no association between brand integration value and CRM trust. In addition, the effects of service performance value and brand integration value on CRM commitment were found whereas monetary value had no effect on CRM commitment.

Demands onenterprise applications are changing drastically in terms of service and value. Currently enterprises have started to view these applications as service systems, as they combine technology with organizational networks designed to deliver services that satisfy the needs of customers and marketing operations. Social networking is playing a crucial role in this direction and provides organizations with the critical data that enable to build strong relationships with their customers and partners. Enterprises have started using this concept, by integrating social networking services with their enterprise applications such as CRM. In this paper, we combine an open source social networking engine with a CRM (Customer Relationship Management) application to constitute a social CRM system. This can bring the customers closer to the enterprise and facilitate better communication with them. Social Networking Analysis constructs were used to analyze the effectiveness of service system. In the current competitive and economically challenging conditions, salespeople needs to quickly and effectively establish meaningful communication with customers. Our approach can address this issue, by handling the changing customer demands in minimal time, and increases service quality and business value.

최근의 인터넷환경하에서 고객들과의 소통을 통한 관계의 이해와 관리 필요성이 증가하면서 고객관계관리(Customer Relationship Management, CRM)가 중요한 기능으로 고려되고 있다. CRM은 인터넷의 발달과 함께 e-CRM으로 발전되었으며, 최근 소셜 네트워크 서비스(Social Network Service, SNS)가 활성화되면서 s-CRM으로 변화하고 있다. SNS 는 자기를 표현하는 프로필과 사용자 간의 연결을 통한 소통으로 구성되어 있으며, 사용자간의 의견교환을 통한 자발적인 홍보와 노출뿐만 아니라 고객과 기업의 직접적인 커뮤니케이션 창구로서 CRM 마케팅을 펼치기에 적합하다. 본 연구는 SNS 중 현재 가장 많은 회원을 보유한 페이스북 팬페이지에서 e 쿠폰 발행을 매개로 소셜 네트워크 이용자들을 대상으로 충성 고객을 확보하기 위한 요인들을 분석하였다. 본 연구 결과는 페이스북 기업 팬페이지의 좋아요, e 쿠폰 발행, e 쿠폰 사용내역에서의 각 요인들의 영향을 분석하였다.

Additionally, it demonstrates if the confirmed relationships are different in similar SVSA between social enterprise and cause-related marketing (CRM). An online experiment using a 2 (the implementation organization of social values: social enterprise vs CRM) ${\times}2$ (SVSA: support of vulnerable group vs environmental protection) factorial design was conducted to test the established hypotheses. Participants were randomly assigned to one of four conditions, and the collected data were analyzed using a partial least squares structure equation modeling (PLS-SEM) and partial least squares multi-group analysis (PLS-MGA).
