    Currently, online and offline channel integration as a successful business model is used in many industries, this paper aims at providing an insight into the factors affecting online channel (online shop) and offline channels (entity shop) in the agricultural product industry. Drawn from the extant literature, a consumer online and offline behavior model including trust, system quality, information quality , environment quality and service quality, online and offline satisfaction ,customer loyalty were provides. Data were obtained from 228 customers in china during 2014. Based on the data obtained, SPSS19.0 software is used to analyze reliability test and validity, descriptive statistics, correlation analysis, and AMOS17.0 were employed to calculate the path coefficient, and tests the proposed model. Data analysis shows that: The model describes the relationship among the online satisfaction, offline satisfaction and customer loyalty, and establishes a multi-relationship model that includes trust, system quality, information quality, environment quality and service quality. The factors impacting online satisfaction include trust, system quality and information quality; the factors impacting offline satisfaction include environment satisfaction and service quality. Meanwhile, we highlight the role of trust in online satisfaction, and prove that both online satisfaction and offline satisfaction have interaction on customer loyalty. Keywords

    Barriers and paradoxical recommendation behaviour in online to offline (O2O) services. A convergent mixed-method study

    Get PDF
    Mobile apps offering online to offline (O2O) services act as aggregators providing interface for delivery of required products and services at a preferred location. Despite offering multiple affordances, many O2O services have not diffused as anticipated, indicating the existence of consumer resistance towards them. One such example is that of food delivery apps (FDAs), which are experiencing resistance at both the pre-adoption and post-adoption stage. However, there are scarce empirical findings explicating the pre-and post-adoption barriers perceived to be associated with FDAs. The present study addresses this gap by utilising the Innovation Resistance Theory (IRT) and a convergent mixed-method study design to examine the barriers that existing FDA users face and how these impinge on their trust and valence of recommendation behaviour (positive and negative word of mouth). The study not only extends the classic IRT barriers to the FDA-context by identifying three key barriers (economic, efficiency, and experience) but also offers empirical evidence to support the negative association of barriers with trust and paradoxical recommendation behaviour by analysing data collected from 303 FDA users through Prolific. The findings also support the mediation effect of trust and the moderation effect of advertisement overload on the identified associations, making interesting theoretical and practical contributions.publishedVersio

    Get PDF
    Dissertation presented as the partial requirement for obtaining a Master's degree in Information Management, specialization in Knowledge Management and Business IntelligenceThis study presents a framework for segmenting Food Delivery Application (FDA) customers based on psychographic and behavioral variables as an alternative to existing segmentation. Customer segments are proposed by applying clustering methods to primary data from an electronic survey. Psychographic and behavioral constructs are formulated as hypotheses based on existing literature, and then evaluated as segmentation variables regarding their discriminatory power for customer segmentation. Detected relevant variables are used in the application of clustering techniques to find adequate boundaries within customer groupings for segmentation purposes. Characterization of customer segments is performed and enriched with implications of findings in FDA marketing strategies. This paper contributes to theory by providing new findings on segmentation that are relevant for an online context. In addition, it contributes to practice by detailing implications of customer segments in an online sales strategy, allowing marketing managers and FDA businesses to capitalize knowledge in their conversion funnel designs

    Investigating the factors that affect dissatisfaction/satisfaction, purchase intention, and loyalty in mobile games?

    Thesis(Master) --KDI School:Master of Public Policy,2017Freemium Models have become the dominant forms of mobile games in the market today. Freemium models carry different transaction structure, and consumer behavior also differs from other typical forms of businesses. Satisfaction and dissatisfaction occurs not after a purchase has been made, but before the user makes the decision to purchase in-app virtual goods, as the users have the opportunity to form an attitude as they experience the ‘free’ part of the game. Making in-app purchase in freemium models shortens the time for the user to reach designated goals, but the cost to get there sometimes seem too costly. On the other hand, consumers could choose to use O2O services to receive other benefits. Using O2O services, or promotional services, could in turn affect purchase intention as well, if the consumers are willing to incur the extra costs of bringing themselves out of the online world into the offline market. This study therefore mainly investigates the relationships that link satisfaction/ dissatisfaction and purchase intention, and the ultimate effect on user loyalty. The findings of this study indicate that dissatisfaction may have positive effect on purchase intention, but satisfaction is still the dominant factor in the users’ behavior, and therefore satisfying the users should be prioritized, rather than devising the pricing scheme to make the users pay.I Introduction II Literature Review III Theoretical Background IV Hypothesis Development V Quantitative Analysis VI ConclusionOutstandingmasterpublishedMin Sang KIM

    Get PDF
    Background: This study seeks to understand how the attributes of smart technology (SMT) can be leveraged to enable personalized services and optimize unique user experiences to attract and retain customers. Based on Kang et al.’s (2020) study of SMT attributes and quality effects and Liang et al.’s (2006) study on personalized recommendation and user satisfaction, we constructed a SMT personalization model to analyze how the SMT attributes of smart functionality and smart content enable personalization in different ways and create unique customer experiences throughout the user journey. Method: Two representative payment systems were selected to depict how they integrated the strengths of personalized smart functionalities and contents to innovate their business models, optimize user experiences, and sustain business growth. Results: Based on the comparative analysis of the two payment cases, the functionality and content attributes of smart chips and omni-channel platforms were explored, and the tailored advisory and responsive support for customers both offline and online were validated. Conclusion: The life-enriching service innovations provide valuable insights for leveraging SMT for personalization. It is hoped that the SMT personalization model can be extended to other types of SMT applications and can be used as a framework for designing innovative services
