Spotlight on the factors impacting customer satisfaction in offline shopping : A quantitative study

Burch, Isabel, Lu, Bofei, Ren, Yihui January 2023 (has links)
Background: Customers find great psychological satisfaction and pleasure when shopping. Customer satisfaction is crucial for a business's success, and increasing it will strengthenfinancial performance and competitiveness. Offline shopping still dominates the customersindustry, although customers are increasingly choosing online shopping as a result offast-growing technological developments in society. However, physical experiences shouldnot be left behind due to customer’s satisfaction from the instant gratification they desire. Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to explain how customer perceived value, customerexpectations, and touch experience have an impact on customer satisfaction in an offlineshopping context. Methodology: This research is conducted through a deductive and quantitative approach,which has an explanatory aim. Three hypotheses have been deducted from theoreticalconcepts found from previous research. The data collection method was collected through aninternet-based, self-completion questionnaire, to see if the hypotheses were supported or not.A total of 105 respondents participated in the study. Findings: The findings indicate that customer perceived value H1, which explains a positiveimpact on customer satisfaction in the context of offline shopping, cannot be supported due tostatistical insignificance. Customer expectation, as presented through H2, and touchexperience, as presented through H3, were found to have a statistically significant andpositive impact on customer satisfaction. The conceptual model was revised in this studybased on the new findings, retaining the acceptable assumptions as the new model. Conclusion: In offline shopping, the positive impact of customer expectation on customersatisfaction is the most obvious, followed by the touch experience. Customer perceived valuehas no positive impact on customer satisfaction, and the reason for this situation may be thatthe perceived value of customers differs among different consumption levels.

Nouri, Divina January 2015 (has links)
People play a major role in the marketing of services, due to the fact services are intangible, and customers look for ways to determine the quality of services. Since services differ from physical goods, service providers need to understand how they affect their organizations. Furthermore, the criterion for satisfaction is different and the customer participates in the process, hence the interest to study this more thoroughly.

Luxury Customer Relationship Management : Customer loyalty through a luxury perspective / Luxury Customer Relationship Management : kundlojalitet ur ett lyxperspektiv

Lönnevik, Helena, Piedra, Fiorella January 2011 (has links)
Bakgrund och problemdiskussion: Lyxvarumärkesföretag har börjat undersöka implementering av en strategi som erbjuder livslångt kundvärde. De har även visat intresse som tyder på att de vill tillämpa CRM-policys men är osäkra till hur stor del den går att tillämpa inom lyxindustrin. Vi har med inspiration från artikeln ”Is CRM for Luxury brands?” Cailleux, Mignot &amp; Kapferer (2009) konstaterat att det existerar ett problem med den traditionella CRM som inte förstår ”luxury management” och de exakta implikationerna. Då begreppet CRM anses vara otillräcklig samt bristande vid tillämpning på lyxvarumärken anser vi att CRM inte är en optimal affärsstrategi för den sortens företag. Syfte: Vårt syfte med studien är att förstärka och komplettera CRM ur ett lyxperspektiv. Ambitionen är att utveckla existerande teori samt skapa en modell som är anpassad för lyxvarumärkesföretag. Vidare vill vi även tydliggöra de skillnader som existerar mellan klassisk CRM och LCRM. Metod: Uppsatsen har en teoretisk utgångspunkt och behandlas ur en kvalitativ metod tillsammans med respondenter från fallföretaget som besitter gedigen erfarenhet och ansvarspositioner inom lyxindustrin. Slutsats: CRM är inte en tillräcklig strategi att applicera mot lyxvarumärkesföretag då den inte är justerad för att tillgodose lyxvarumärkesföretagens plattform. Den utvecklade teorin LCRM har testats genom en empirisk studie och verifierats till att vara en lämplig strategi för lyxvarumärkesföretag. Genom en tillämpning av LCRM kan lyxvarumärkesföretag nå en ökad kundlojalitet ur ett långsiktigt  perspektiv. / Background and problem discussion: Luxury brands have begun to explore the benefits of an approach to create lifelong customer value. They have also shown interest in implementing CRM policies but are unsure how suitable it is for their market. The article “Is CRM for luxury brands?” Cailleux, Mignot &amp; Kapferer (2009) has been used as an inspiration in this study as the article has found that the existing traditional CRM does not understand "luxury management" and the precise implications, i.e., how luxury brands want to expand while maintaining their prestige. Since the concept of CRM is considered to be insufficient and inadequate for the purposes of luxury brands, we believe that CRM is not an optimal business strategy for the type of business. Purpose: The purpose with this study is to enhance and supplement the strategy CRM to meet the luxury industry needs. The ambition is to develop existing theory and create a model that is suitable for luxury brands. Further, the purpose is to clarify the differences between CRM and LCRM. Method: The paper is theoretically based with a qualitative approach with respondents in leader positions and extensive experience within the luxury industry. Conclusion: CRM is an insufficient strategy to apply for businesses within the luxury industry because it does not understand the platform of a luxury brand. The developed theory LCRM has been tested through an empiric study and has been verified as a suitable strategy to apply for luxury brands. Through an implementation of LCRM luxury brands can achieve a higher customer loyalty in the long run.
