This research investigates how loneliness affects people's preferences for products that appear in social media ads. Four studies examine the impact of loneliness that is both measured in an established scale and situationally induced via a recall task. Individuals who experience higher levels of loneliness evaluate the same products more highly when they are advertised in a social (i.e., Instagram) compared to non-social (i.e., brand website) media platform. This effect occurs because loneliness increases people's attention to others' social evaluation of a product, and social media ads provide this information via social cues such as "likes" embedded in the ads. When the social cues are absent, the advantage of advertising on social compared to non-social media for people with high (vs. low) loneliness disappears. The findings suggest that social media ads have a unique appeal for individuals experiencing loneliness and highlight the role of social cues in shaping product evaluations.

본 연구에서는 소셜커머스 환경에서 "환경-마케팅-성과" 간의 연계성 분석을 통해 소셜커머스 업체의 마케팅 전략의 변화를 살펴보았다. 2010년 4월부터 2013년 3월까지의 신문기사 3,783건 대상으로 내용분석을 통해 소셜커머스에서 나타나는 환경조건들과 마케팅 전략의 구성요소들을 매치하였다. 성과지표로서는 UV(Unique Visitor)와 PV(Page View)를 활용하였다. 소셜커머스마케팅의 특성상 마케팅전략자체가 언론에서 주목을 받게 되는 점을 고려하여 신문기사분석을 하였으며 인터넷비즈니스의 특성상 방문자의 수와 페이지뷰의 숫자를 성과를 나타나는 변수로 활용하였다. 연구결과 "환경-전략" 간의 관계에 있어서는 부정적 환경조건의 변화(불안 확산)에 따라 마케팅 전략이 변화되는 양상이 명확하게 나타났으며, "전략-성과"간의 관계에 있어서는 제품요소와 외재적 판매촉진 요소를 변화시키는 경우 성과에 직접적으로 효과가 나타나는 것으로 추정할 수 있었다. 아울러서 유사한 업체들이지만 업체들간에 마케팅 전략을 활용하는 방법이나 시점에 있어서도 차이가 나타났다. 쿠팡의 경우 UV와 PV와 마케팅 요소들 간에 모든 부분에서 높은 상관관계가 나타난 반면 위메프의 경우는 UV와 관계가 낮았고, 환경요소들과의 관련성에 있어서도 비교적 낮은 수치가 나타났다. 본 연구의 결과는 소셜커머스에 있어서 마케팅 전략의 선행변수로서 환경조건과 후행 변수로서의 성과를 간접적으로 실증하였다는 데에 학술적 의미가 있으며 실시간으로 반응을 해야 하는 소셜커머스에 있어서 마케팅 전략의 의미, 그리고 더 나아가서는 효과의 시차와 관련하여 실증을 하였는 바, 전략 수립에 참고가 될 수 있을 것이다.

This study examines the relationship between social media advertisement and customer interest in the context of luxury brands. Further, this study investigates the effective ways to utilize visual types (pictorial advertisement and video advertisement) and contents types (website link and hash-tag) in social media advertising by proposing a time-series model to estimate the long-term effect of social media advertising on social search. We find that the pictorial advertisements are more effective than video advertisements, which provides a different result from previous existing research. In addition, advertisements using hashtags are more effective than web links due to efficiency of the search feature. Finally, since the number of brand fans also have a positive effect on advertising interest, it is essential to utilize social media advertising for the enhancement of customers' interests. Confirming that the effectiveness of social media advertising varies depending on how the visual contents and text are presented, this research can help marketing managers to assess predicted outcomes of using various methods of social media advertising.

This study first investigates relationships among fashion consumer's positive emotion toward social value seeking activities (SVSA), enterprise image (EI), enterprise-perceived quality (EPQ), and purchase intention. 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). The results revealed that positive emotion toward SVSA directly influenced EI and purchase intention. EI and EPQ were identified as sequential mediators linking positive emotion toward SVSA and purchase intention. A finding for similarity in consumer response paths between social enterprises and CRM highlights that social enterprises need to develop a marketing strategy distinguished from CRM.
