본 연구에서는 항공운송산업에서 기내서비스와 가성비가 고객의 만족과 추천에 미치는 영향에 있어서 대형항공사 브랜드 파워의 조절적인 영향을 살펴보고자 한다. 연구결과, 첫째, 고객만족에 있어서 브랜드 파워가 높은 대형항공사는 가성비뿐 아니라 다른 기내서비스 속성들도 모두 영향을 주는 것으로 나타났다. 그러나 브랜드 파워가 낮은 대형항공사는 다른 기내 서비스 속성에 비해 가성비의 영향이 무엇보다 더 큰 것으로 나타났다. 둘째, 고객의 추천에 있어서도 브랜드 파워가 높은 대형항공사들은 가성비뿐만 아니라 좌석이나 승무원서비스도 중요하게 고려하고 있는 반면에 브랜드 파워가 낮은 대형항공사들은 좌석이나 승무원서비스보다 가성비를 훨씬 더 중요하게 여기는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 브랜드 파워가 낮은 대형항공사는 저가항공사의 저가격파괴 전략에 맞대응하는 노력이 필요하고, 브랜드 파워가 높은 대형항공사는 가성비뿐만 아니라 다양한 기내서비스 속성을 모두 향상시키는 존속적 혁신전략을 추구하는 것이 필요하다고 할 수 있다.

The purpose of this study was to determine whether foodservice brand language localization affects consumer attitudes in terms of similar brand image recognition with an original brand. Many global foodservice companies have tried to modify their own brand identity according to local situations in order to attract more consumers. According to this study's results, consumers who similarly recognized both the original brand image and localization brand image tended to have greater purchase intention than those who did not recognize them similarly. In addition, when the original brand identity was changed to the local language, consumers more similarly conceived the original brand image and localization. And for local store marketing, foodservice companies should have a thorough marketing research plan since there can be difference results according to brand name recognition gaps or demographic characteristics. Original brand image similarity recognition by consumers affected their attitudes. In other words, the group that similarly recognized both the original brand company image and the localization brand company image tended to have greater purchase intention. Because brand language plays an important role in consumer attitudes with respect to recognizing a brand and distinguishing another brand, this study suggests that franchise foodservice companies have a local store marketing plan.

본 연구는 국내 자동차 브랜드 서비스 센터의 서비스 품질이 소비자-브랜드 관계 품질에 미치는 영향과 이 관계에서 브랜드 신뢰의 매개효과를 검증하고, 지각된 제품 품질 수준에 의해 조절된 매개효과를 규명하고자 하였다. 이를 위해 본 연구에서는 최근 6개월 이내에 자신이 소유한 자동차 브랜드의 서비스 센터를 이용한 경험이 있는 소비자를 대상으로 확보한 유효표본 376부를 가설 검증에 활용하였다. 연구결과, 자동차 브랜드 서비스 센터의 서비스 품질은 소비자-브랜드 관계 품질에 미치는 영향이 유의하지 않은 것으로 나타났으나, 브랜드 신뢰를 매개하여 소비자-브랜드 품질에 정(+)의 유의한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 조절된 매개효과에 대해 검증한 결과, 지각된 제품 품질이 낮은 집단에서 높은 집단보다 브랜드 신뢰의 매개효과가 더욱 큰 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구는 이러한 연구결과를 토대로 소비자-브랜드 관계 품질 개선을 위해 필요한 서비스 센터의 역할과 자동차 서비스 센터의 서비스 품질이 강한 브랜드 구축에 전이되는 과정에 대해 논의하였다.
