Customers’ loyalty to an online store may be worth up to ten times as much as its average customer. To develop a loyal customer base, most online stores try their best to continually satisfy their customers and to generate long-run relationships with them. This study investigates the effects of product attributes on customer satisfaction, trust, and loyalty in the context of online shopping for apparels. A self-administered questionnaire with multi-item scale was developed based on literatures. A total of 356 usable questionnaires were obtained from respondents and were analyzed using by LISREL 8.54 Program. The results showed that attributes of apparel products (e.g., products variety, price, and information) have indirectly influenced customer loyalty, which are moderated by customers’ satisfaction and trust. Additionally, customer satisfaction plays an important role to develop customer loyalty of online apparel stores. The findings suggest that, to satisfy their customers, online apparel stores should focus on product variety, and reasonable/economic prices of their apparel products, while they should provide the information about contents/care of apparels in building trusting relationships with their customers. In light of the major findings, this study sets forth strategic implications for customer loyalty in online settings of apparel store.

This study draws important factors in electronic Word-of-Mouth (eWOM) and examines how these influence the building of customer loyalty. eWOM is viewed as social communication between customers and sellers, and thus the communicative action theory is applied. With the theory, we identify reviewer and seller as influential players on customers, and derive important factors such as correctness and veracity of reviews from the reviewers' action, and information compactness and adequacy from the seller's action. We propose these constructs as antecedents of customer loyalty and further hypothesize their curvilinear impacts as follows: the marginal impacts of veracity and correctness will decrease as veracity and correctness increase, and the marginal impacts of compactness and adequacy will increase as compactness and adequacy increase. The result indicates that only the seller's action has a curvilinear impact, whereas the reviewer has proportional positive impact on customer loyalty. This study indentifies important factors in eWOM from a critical social theory perspective and validates them using the positivistic approach. For practitioners, it discusses the important factors in eWOM with the identification of the individuals who are responsible for these factors.

The importance of the net-based customer service in delivering supplementary after-sale services associated with product has been well documented. The strategic advantages of a well-implemented the net-based customer service are enhanced customer loyalty and higher lock-in of customers, and the resulting reduction in competition and the consequent increase in profits. However, not all customers utilize such the net-based customer service. This is partly due to the e-commerce divide, and partly due to privacy and security concerns of the customer for sharing personal information with firms. The limited level of customer adoption of the net-based customer service affects the firm profits and the customers' welfare. We use a game-theoretic model in which we model the net-based customer service system as a mechanism to enhance customers' loyalty. We find that an increase in adoption of the net-based customer service by the customer base is not always desirable for firms. and that customers who utilize such services are better off only when the overall adoption is limited.

이번 연구는 실제 기업 자료를 기반으로 고객보상 프로그램이 고객 유지(retention)에 미치는 영향을 살펴보았다. 특히 고객보상 프로그램의 효과를 보다 명확히 확인하기 위해 유사실험설계(quasi-experimental design)를 사용하였다. 그리고 1년이 넘는 장기적인 시간 프레임 속에서 고객보상 프로그램의 도입 시점을 전후로 소비자 집단을 구분하고 이들 집단의 비교를 통해 고객보상 프로그램의 효과를 파악하였다. 이러한 연구 설계를 고려한 이유는 종적 자료를 사용한 선행 연구들이 고객보상 프로그램의 도입 시점 이후부터 가입 고객과 비가입 고객을 대상으로 프로그램의 효과를 측정하였기 때문에 자기선택오류(self-selection bias)의 가능성이 존재하였기 때문이다. 이번 연구는 고객보상 프로그램의 도입 시점을 전후로 두 집단을 비교하기 위해 자료를 특정 시점을 기준으로 절단(censoring)하였다. 생존분석(survival analysis)은 다른 분석기법에 비해 불완전한 자료가 포함되더라도 분석이 상대적으로 용이하므로 이번 연구의 분석방법으로 선택하였다. 분석 결과 고객보상 프로그램을 실시하기 전에는 소비자들의 거래기간이 평균 179일이었으나 고객보상 프로그램을 도입한 이후에는 227일로 약 50일 정도 더 늘어났다. 이러한 차이는 통계적으로 유의한 것으로 나타나 연구 가설을 지지하였다. 또한 콕스 비례위험모형을 사용하여 고객보상 프로그램과 영향 변수들의 상호작용효과를 확인한 결과 기존고객들은 고객보상 프로그램이 도입된 후 신규고객들에 비해 회사와의 거래기간이 유의하게 증가한 것으로 나타났으며 긍정적인 서비스(예: 30일 이내 입회)를 경험한 고객들도 회사와의 거래기간이 유의하게 증가하는 것으로 나타났다. 한편 부정적인 서비스(예: 30일 이후 입회)를 경험한 고객이라 하더라도 고객보상 프로그램을 도입한 이후에는 회사와의 거래기간이 증가하였다. 이번 연구에서 나타난 결과들을 정리하면 고객보상 프로그램은 고객과 긍정적인 관계를 형성하는 데 기여할 뿐만 아니라 이탈 장벽까지 구축해 줌으로써 기업의 경쟁력을 강화시키는 수단으로서의 가치가 있다고 생각할 수 있다.

This study provides the empirical testing to test the influences of contemporary leadership styles (i.e., transactional and transformational) on job satisfaction and customer satisfaction as the mediating variable between job satisfaction and customer loyalty. The approach utilized in this study was a quantitative research design using a survey model. The participants of this study were recruited from 160 front-liners in the airline's industry in Indonesia. This study employed 160 front liners (flight attendants, reservation/ticketing, and check-in-counter officers) who worked in Branch Office/General Sales Agent of Indonesian commercial airlines. The studied airlines serve domestic routes based at Soekarno-Hatta International Airport. Furthermore, the data were examined the four developed hypotheses by using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM). The primary results are: First, in the context of job satisfaction, both leadership styles (i.e., transactional and transformational) have similar influences; Second, job satisfaction affects customer satisfaction positively and significant, Third, customer loyalty is driven by passengers' satisfaction when they are utilizing the airline services. The findings imply that the working-role encouragement is essential to maximize the productivity of front-liners to serve their customer well. This research supports on developing the general knowledge based on leadership styles in the context of the airline's industry in managing the human resources strategically.

The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of logistics service quality and relationship orientation factors on customer satisfaction and loyalty in the electronic commerce context. Based on extensive review of relevant literature, nine components of logistics service quality(i.e. information quality, ordering procedures, ordering release quantities, timeliness, order accuracy, order quality, order condition, order discrepancy handling and personnel contact quality) and six components of relationship orientation(i.e. trust, bonding, communication, shared value, empathy and reciprocity) are introduced in this study. And a conceptual model is developed and five research hypotheses are empirically examined using structural equation modeling. The findings indicate that logistics service quality and relationship orientation are positively and significantly associated with customer satisfaction, and customer satisfaction is the antecedent variable of customer loyalty in the Internet Shopping Mall. In addition, a significant impact of logistics service quality on relationship orientation of the customer is revealed. Implications of these findings are discussed, and limitations of the study as well as further research directions are addressed.
