Purpose: This research investigates whether the existence of preannouncing price discount before purchase has an effect on after regret about purchasing and price fairness perception. Moreover, this paper examines whether the preannouncing effects on regret (or price fairness perception) are moderated by motive inference type (or brand trust). Research design, data and methodology: This experimental design consisted of total 8 between-subjects full factorial, which is completed by 2 (preannouncing price discount before purchase) × 2 (motive inference type) × 2 (consumer's brand trust level). Results: First, regret (or price fairness) differs depending on the presence/absence of preannouncing price discount before purchase and price discount motive inference type. Second, interaction effect of preannouncing price discount presence/absence before purchase and price discount motive inference type on regret (or price fairness) after purchase differs depending on motive inference type (or brand trust). Conclusions: Preannouncing external cue could decrease the possibility of consumers to regret and prevent consumers perceiving price change as unfair. Thus, corporations should sufficiently explain to consumers about preannouncing and specific reason of price fall in order to decrease regret caused by price fall and to increase price fairness perception from preannouncing effect.

서울시 전자상거래센터에서 실시한 2019-2020년 소셜미디어 이용실태 조사에 따르면 소비자 10명 중 5명이 소셜미디어를 통한 쇼핑경험이 있는 것으로 조사되었으며, The CMO Survey에서 2020년 코로나 펜데믹 기간에 실시한 조사에 따르면 전통적인 광고매체의 비용은 축소되고 소셜미디어에 대한 광고지출은 74%나 상승함으로써 소셜미디어가 더욱 중요한 마케팅 요소로 자리하고 있음을 나타내고 있다. 이만큼 소셜미디어의 이용자 증가와 그에 따른 기업의 마케팅 활동이 활발해지는 동안 소셜미디어에 대한 사용자의 이용동기, 만족도, 구매의도 등 다양한 마케팅 측면에서 연구되어져 왔으나, 온라인을 통해 농식품을 구매하는 상황에서 소비자들의 소셜미디어 이용빈도가 실제 구매행위에 어떠한 차이로 나타나는가에 대해 세분화 한 연구는 없었다. 본 연구는 온라인에서 농식품을 구매하는 소비자들을 대상으로 소셜미디어 이용빈도에 따라 유형별로 군집화하여 농식품 구매상황에서 보여지는 군집별 소비자특성의 차이를 파악하고자 하였으며, 제품관여도, 제품필요도, 온라인 구매채널 선택 등 3가지 농식품 구매상황에 대해 각 군집에서 나타나는 인구통계학적 분포, 지각된 위험, 식습관 라이프스타일 등의 소비자 특성을 확인하고 군집별 유형을 제시하였다. 이를 위해 245명의 소비자를 대상으로 소셜미디어 이용빈도 및 온라인 농식품 구매행태에 대한 설문 자료를 수집하였으며, 요인분석과 신뢰성 분석으로 측정변수의 타당성을 확보하였다. 소셜미디어 이용빈도에 따른 군집분석을 실시한 결과 3개의 군집으로 나뉘어졌으며, 첫번째 군집은 주로 개방형 소셜미디어를 사용하는 집단, 두번째 군집은 개방형 소셜미디어와 폐쇄형 소셜미디어, 온라인 쇼핑몰을 고루 사용하는 집단, 세번째 군집은 전반적으로 온라인 매체 사용량이 적은 집단으로 군집별 특성이 나타났다. 각 3개의 군집을 통해 온라인에서 농식품 구매시 제품관여도, 제품필요도, 구매채널 선택에 미치는 영향을 회귀분석을 통해 확인하였다. 회귀분석 결과 온라인에서 농식품을 구매하는 상황에서 보여지는 군집1의 특성은 소셜미디어나 온라인쇼핑몰에서 농식품을 구매하는데 거부감이 없는 지방에 거주하는 30대 남자로 소비자특성이 대표된다. 군집2의 특성은 주로 건강식품 구매에 관심이 많은 소비자로 소비자특성이 대표된다. 군집3의 경우는 온라인에서 제품을 구매하는 경우 품질과 가격을 많이 따져보고 구매하며, 온라인보다 오프라인 구매가 더 안심인 사람으로 소비자특성이 대표된다. 본 연구를 통해 소셜미디어 이용빈도에 따라 농식품 구매상황에서 나타나는 소비자 특성의 차이를 확인함으로써 소셜미디어 고객타겟팅과 고객세분화 등에 대한 마케팅 실무의 전략적인 판단에 도움을 줄 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

This study was to identify the dimensions of consumers' attitudes toward imported casual brands. Another objectives were to examine consumers' attitude according to the preference group, and to ascertain the imported casual brand images. The 55 Likert type questions were selected through the results of self-questionnaire analyses. 520 females aged between 20 to 29 in Pusan responded to the second questionnaire of consumers' attitudes and brand images toward imported casual brands. The results were as follows: 1. For final factor analysis, 56 selected from 85 questions were subjected to the principal component analyses with orthogonal rotation after extraction of 5 major factors. 2. Five dimensions are brand's uniqueness and good quality, high prestige, incongruity with native emotion and ethnocentrism, conspicuous consumption, and reasonable purchasing advantages. These factors explained 45.0% of total variance. 3. Five dimensions were different according to the degree of preference. For preference group, they purchased the imported casual brands by uniqueness, good quality and reasonable purchasing advantages. For non-preference group, they disliked the imported brands by incongruity with native emotion, ethnocentrism, and conspicuous consumption. 4. Preference group had 5.47, whereas non-preference group had 1.76 pieces of imported casual brands for this 2 years. This result suggests that to develop the domestic brands with international uniqueness, good quality, and high prestige, and to improve according to preference group are necessary.

This study attempts to identify the level of conflicts occurring between foreign and domestic chefs, and to suggest the way of controlling those conflicts in order to well manage human resources, foreign chefs. Based on the empirical research, the research findings shows that in terms of targeting and achieving objectives different level of conflicts are experienced when age, hotel type, position varies. For example. purchasing excessive foreign foods may cause undesirable stock which will lead to considerable loss. In order to overcome this problem the advantages of the chain-operated and the independent hotel's food purchasing system must be incorporated. Secondly, another conflicts arise when the architecture and system of a kitchen is different from what foreign chefs are familiar with. Kitchen architecture and system should be well-designed in terms of delivery channel, sanitation, safety, food control, banquet etc.. In developing menu, chefs often have different criteria in the scale of sweet and salt of a particular dish. Foreign chefs often blame his subordinates for not meeting his requirements without proper training or education. Finally, because of the different culture, communication as well as the lack of mutual understanding problem occur. Even though today is called global town. some chefs do not seem to open their minds to learn other developing countries' culture. In diversity management aspect, chefs need to put much effort to be aware of other countries' culture, history, political and economic situation. In prior to employing foreign chefs, the job enrollment and description must be prepared so as to minimize the conflicts, which otherwise will create poor job performance.

Market segmentation is a key strategic factor in increasing the expected profits, especially in the practice of revenue management. A manufacturing firm should manage both manufacturing quantities and pricing decisions over its segmented markets to maximize the expected profits, setting different price for each different segment. Also, market segments should be kept separate in order to prevent demand leakages between different market segments. In fact, even though the markets for different products are firmly segmented, it is not easy to keep separate segmentation because many products might be substitutable by customer buying behavior. That is, customers respond to price changes by purchasing other market's products instead of purchasing the originally requested products, which causes demand substitution effect ; This kind of substitution is referred to as price-driven substitution. Therefore, decisions on optimal prices should take into account the differences in customers' valuation of the different products. We consider a deterministic model for deciding optimal prices in the presence of price-driven substitution, and we compare both symmetrical-and asymmetrical-type demand substitutions between two segmented markets. The objective of this study is to develop analytical and numerical models to examine the impact of price-driven substitution on the optimal price levels and the total expected profits.

This qualitative case study examined the experience of middle-aged homemakers with buying and wearing clothes. Clothing benefits and clothing purchase types were observed in the homemakers' daily clothing-related behavior. This study aims to understand clothing consumption values in light of clothing benefits and to determine purchasing methods, purchasing mental states, and personal characteristics according to the clothing purchase types of middle-aged homemakers. The participants of this study were four full-time homemakers and four homemakers with a job outside the home, all in middle age. This study was conducted through in-depth interviews based on an unstructured questionnaire, and the data were collected from January 2010 to October 2010. The results were as follows: first, the clothing benefits were identified as a social stereotype, aesthetic taste, economy, wearing situation, and age perception. The most important clothing consumption values to the middle-aged homemakers based on the observed clothing benefits were, in order: social value, emotional value, epistemic value, functional value, and conditional value. Second, the type of clothing purchase was observed to be planned buying, followed by impulse buying, and compensatory buying. Even when a homemaker planned to shop regularly, when they were exposed to an attractive retailer promotion, they seized on the opportunity on impulse or made a compensatory purchase to divert oneself. Even though homemakers prefer primarily impulse buying, when they went shopping for clothing with their mother-in-law or husband, they made planned purchase also.
