Abstract

This study was conducted to investigate the effect of relational benefits on perceived value in order to enhance customer satisfaction and win customer loyalty in the specialty coffee shop business. Structural equation modeling was performed and the structural model estimated with AMOS (ver 5.0). A total of 329 valid responses were used for data analysis. The findings show that confidence benefits among the relational benefits have a direct effect on perceived value. In addition, confidence benefits also have an indirect effect on customer satisfaction and loyalty from this perceived value. However, social benefits and special treatment benefits of customers had no effect on functional and symbolic value. In conclusion, establishing confidence benefits with the customer at the specialty coffee shop significantly influenced their perceptions of value, customer satisfaction, and loyalty.

본 연구는 커피전문점을 이용하는 고객이 지각하는 관계 혜택과 지각된 기능적 가치와 상징적 가치, 고객만족, 고객 충성도간의 구체적인 인과관계를 분석하여 커피전문점의 마케팅 전략 수립을 위한 기초자료를 제공하고자 수행하였다. 커피전문점 이용 고객 총 329명을 대상으로 설문조사를 실시한 후 SPSS 17.0과 AMOS 5.0을 이용하여 통계분석을 실시한 결과 커피전문점 이용고객이 지각하는 관계혜택 중 확신적 혜택은 기능적 가치와 상징적 가치에 유의미한 영향을 주었으나 사회적 혜택과 특별대우 혜택은 유의미한 영향을 미치지 못하는 것으로 분석되었다. 또한 기능적 가치와 상징적 가치는 모두 고객만족에 유의미한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났으며 고객만족은 고객충성도에 유의미한 영향을 주는 것으로 분석되었다. 따라서 커피전문점 고객의 만족도와 고객충성도를 극대화하기 위해서는 관계혜택 중 확신적 혜택과 더불어 고객이 인식하는 기능적 가치와 상징적 가치를 향상시킬 수 있는 마케팅 전략이 필요하다고 판단된다.
