Abstract

Global courier companies have been devoting to get more customers and profits with different service because of the worse profits from price competition. So, the effort of improving satisfaction of customers through improving courier service qualities is more important than any other time. However, the previous way to measure courier service has limitation that costs lots of time and money from off-line survey. This limitation could be overcome with less effort and costs if utilizing on-line social big data analysis and it is so helpful to improve competitiveness of courier companies. Therefore, I have collected comments from domestic and international courier companies from big data on social network service, analyzed the satisfaction of customers by R and verified the result by comparing with American Customer Satisfaction Index (ACSI) and Korea National Customer Index (NCSI) in this research. I found out the result depicts clear correlation between SNS analysis and customer satisfaction. This study can be the foundation to predict customer satisfaction easily by utilizing real time SNS information.

최근 국내외 택배업체들은 가격경쟁에 의한 수익성 악화로 서비스의 차별화를 통한 고객 및 수익성 확보에 많은 노력을 기울이고 있다. 따라서, 택배 서비스의 품질 개선을 통한 고객만족도를 높이는 노력이 어느 때 보다 중요한 실정이다. 하지만 기존의 택배서비스 품질 측정은 오프라인 설문조사로 이루어져 많은 시간과 비용을 들어간다는 한계를 지니고 있다. 이러한 한계는 온라인상의 소셜 빅데이터 분석을 활용한다면 보다 적은 비용과 노력으로 극복 가능할 것이며, 택배업체 경쟁력 강화에 크게 도움이 될 수 있을 것이다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 SNS상의 빅데이터를 활용하여 국내외 택배업체들에 대한 의견을 수집하고, R을 통해 각 택배업체들의 고객만족도를 분석하고 이를 미국고객만족도(ACSI), 한국국가고객만족도(NCSI)와 비교하여 검증을 실시하였다. 그 결과 SNS 분석 결과와 고객만족도가 뚜렷한 양적 선형관계를 형성하였다. 이는 향후 실시간 소셜 네트워크의 정보를 이용하여 간편하게 고객만족도 결과를 예측할 수 있다는 것을 의미한다.
