The term used to describe consumer's valuation of a brand is brand equity. One concept that can be managed and may impact valuation of a prestige brand is "luxuriousness." As the concept of "luxuriousness" appears to be a key factor contributing to the equity of a prestige brand, the purpose of this study was to examine how luxuriousness is related to the brand equity utilizing a model developed by Yoo, Donthu, and Lee (2000). Yoo et al. (2000) identified three dimensions [brand association with awareness (BA), perceived quality (PQ), brand loyalty (BL)] accounted for the equity (OBE) of a brand. We speculated that the five dimensions of luxuriousness (i.e., quality, extended self, hedonism, accessibility, and tradition) would selectively influence the two dimensions of brand equity (BA, PQ) and that loyalty would mediate the relationship between the two dimensions of brand equity (BA, PQ) and overall brand equity. A total of 502 participants aged from 18 to 74 were surveyed in USA. Using AMOS 18, the path analysis was conducted with the maximum-likelihood estimation procedure. The model exhibited a good fit with the data and all hypotheses were supported except one. Quality, accessibility, and hedonism dimensions of luxuriousness affected perceived quality of the equity of a brand. Hedonism and extended self dimensions affected brand association with awareness. However, tradition dimension did not significantly influence brand association with awareness. Overall, this research expands understanding of brand equity as it documents the contributions of luxuriousness, a component that can be controlled by brand managers.

This study empirically examines the synergy effect of a corporate-level loyalty program on customer equity (CE) known as the lifetime value of current and future customers (Blattberg et al. 2009). A corporate-level loyalty program refers to a company-wide integration loyalty program at the corporate-level in which subsidiaries (multi-divisions) participate as program members. It does not merely examine whether there is an integration effect of a corporate-level loyalty program from the CE perspective, but it provides practical implications for a firm's strategic focus by identifying which value creation channels (i.e., acquisition, retention, and cross-selling), brand characteristics (i.e., size of the customer base before integration, diversity of products, and sales channel type), and consumer characteristics (i.e., customer relationship stage, transaction amount before integration, transaction period, and number of purchased brands) are affected the most by the synergy effect.

본 연구는 온라인 브랜드 커뮤니티 내의 상호작용성이 브랜드 충성도에 미치는 영향을 밝히면서 중국 온라인 환경에서 전략적 브랜드 관리 활용방안에 관한 시사점을 제공하고자 하는 목적에서 이루어졌다. 이를 위해, 중국 자동차 브랜드 커뮤니티를 대상으로 총 300부를, 구조방정식 모델을 기반으로 한 AMOS 20을 이용하여 실증 분석하였다. 연구결과, 커뮤니티 내 소비자-소비자 상호작용(상호연대감, 연결성, 영향력)과 소비자-브랜드 상호작용(친밀감, 즐거움)은 커뮤니티 동일시와 브랜드 동일시를 통해 행동적 태도적 충성도(e.g: 재구매, 브랜드호감, 추천의지등)와 경쟁 브랜드에 대한 대항적 충성도(반감. 공격적 의지)를 증대시키는 메카니즘을 규명하였다. 중국 소비자들은 브랜드 충성도가 낮고 저신뢰적 성향을 가지고 있어 고객관리 차원에서 브랜드 커뮤니티의 관리는 충성도 제고에 새로운 지평을 제공해 줄 것이다.

The proliferation of social media has given rise to the new consumer group, namely, social consumers. This study identified the distinct characteristics of social consumers (i.e., online social search, online social navigation, online social connection) and examined the impacts of social consumer attributes on the engagement with fashion brands via brands' SNSs (BSNSs). A sample of 141 U.S. consumers who had browsed and/or participated in a fashion brand's BSNS (i.e., the Facebook page for fashion brands) was used to examine hypothesized relationships. The analyses involved running a confirmatory factor analysis and a structural equation modeling. The result indicates that the impacts of the social consumer attributes on the benefits of BSNSs (i.e., experiential and functional benefits) as perceived by consumers were significant, except the link between online social connection and functional benefits. In addition, consumers' existing relationship with a brand served as a moderating variable, strengthening the impacts of social consumer attributes on BSNS benefits. The perceived benefits of BSNSs positively affected perceived relationship investment which in turn influenced brand loyalty. Practical marketing suggestions are provided for fashion brands.

상품의 이용가능성은 소비자 욕구를 충족시킬 수 있는 중요한 점포 능력 중의 하나이다. 그러나 구매하고자 하는 상품이 없는 품절(stockouts)상황이 발생했을때 소비자는 구매의사 결정의 어려움에 직면하고 이러한 어려움은 소비자의 부정적인 반응, 예컨대 점포에 대한 불만족을 야기한다. 본 연구에서는 상품의 이용가능성 상설, 즉 품절상황에서의 소비자 대체선택행동을 이끌어 내는 결정요인들을 파악하여, 이러한 변수들이 품절에 대한 소비자반응과 행동에 어떠한 영향을 미치는가를 규명하고자 한다. 세부적으로 본 연구에서는 기존 연구들과 달리 구매환경의 상황적인 특성(예: 구매 긴급성, 당황정도), 점포 특성(예: 상품구색, 매장편의성), 소비자 특성(예: 브랜드애호도, 점포애호도) 등에 초점을 맞추어 이러한 요인들이 품절시 소비자반응(상품대체, 구매연기, 점포전환 등의 대체선택행동)에 미치는 영향을 실증적으로 밝히는 것을 목적으로 하였다. 특히 본 연구에서는 선행연구에 비해 상품구색, 전반적인 점포 가격 이미지 등의 점포특성 변수들을 추가적으로 고려하여 분석하였다. 이러한 연구목적을 달성하기 위하여 대형할인마트, 슈퍼마켓 등의 다양한 소매업태에서 품절상황을 경험하고 나오는 353명의 소비자들로부터 자료를 수집하여 다항로짓분석(multinomial logit analysis)을 이용하여 연구모형과 연구가설을 검증하였다. 소비자 선택행동에 대한 MNL 모델 추정결과 품절상황에서 상품대체, 구매연기, 점포전환 행동에 대해 구매의 긴급성, 당황 정도, 구매량, 사전 계획구매, 상품구색, 전반적 점포가격 이미지, 브랜드애호도, 점포애호도 요인들이 소비자 선택행동에 유의한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 구체적으로 살펴보면, 품절상황시 소비자의 점포 내 상품대체행동을 이끄는 결정요인으로 구매의 긴급성, 당황정도, 구매량, 사전 계획구매, 상품구색의 다양성, 저렴한 점포가격이미지, 브랜드애호도, 점포애호도 등이 유의하였으며, 구매연기를 유도하는 결정요인으로 구매의 긴급성, 구매량, 브랜드애호도 등으로 판명되었다. 품절시 소비자가 다른 점포로 전환하게 하는 요인은 구매의 긴급성, 구매량, 사전 계획구매, 상품구색의 다양성, 저렴한 점포가격이미지, 브랜드애호도, 점포애호도 등으로 파악되었다. 마지막으로 품절시 점포 편의성과 판매원 서비스 요인들은 소비자 대체 행동에 유의한 영향을 주지 못하였다.

As a method to satisfy needs and emotions of consumers who pursue diversity, the use of Kitsch in the fashion industry has been increased. Previous studies on Kitsch fashion have focused on qualitative research on the characteristics of Kitsch product, and little empirical researches have been conducted on consumer attitude such as consumer response to Kitsch products and brand equity. Therefore, the purpose of this study are 1) to investigate comparisons of experiential values (i.e., Aesthetic, Amusing, Cultural) with Kitsch product moderated by consumers' characteristics (i.e., consumer uniqueness, fashion involvement), and 2) to explore the relationship between experiential values and brand equity. Factor analysis, reliability analysis, ANOVA, and structural equation model using SPSS 18.0 and AMOS 18.0 were used for the data analysis. 210 questionnaires were analyzed for this study. The results of this study were as follows. First, significant difference in aesthetic values of Kitsch products were shown. Kitsch Product with nostalgic characteristics has higher aesthetic values than others. Specifically differences in experiential values with Kitsch product were partially moderated by consumers' characteristics (i.e., consumer uniqueness, fashion involvement), Second, cultural value had a positive influence on brand awareness, while amusing and cultural values had a positive influence on brand image. Also aesthetic and amusing values had a positive influence on brand loyalty. Academic and business implications were discussed from this study.
