Consumer loyalty is crucial to a company’s performance and significantly influences its development trends. Customer trust and satisfaction form the foundation for establishing consumer loyalty, with perceived value, perceived quality, and service quality serving as prerequisites for gaining this trust and satisfaction. However, the extent to which live broadcasts can be effectively utilized for brand marketing to improve consumer loyalty has not been fully explored. Thus, this study aims to examine how live broadcasters and brand image can increase consumer loyalty. Based on 266 data surveys collected from live streaming users, our statistical analysis reveals that brand image and broadcaster influence are vital in promoting perceived value, perceived quality, and service quality to further increase customer trust and satisfaction, thereby enhancing consumer loyalty. Our findings also provide theoretical and practical insights into improving customer loyalty.
... Persepsi kualitas merupakan penilaian konsumen mengenai keunggulan produk yang didasarkan pada persepsi subjektif (Erdoğmuş & Büdeyri-Turan, 2012).

Despite the growing interest among the scientific community regarding the power of subconscious, the current research did not find any evidence of its superiority over consciousness in generating positive consumer experience. This study shows that researches in subliminal messages have been set to work towards a set of pre-defined results and can only be used to generate some insignificant changes in social behaviour. Such behaviour is elicited only in laboratory conditions with specific situational variables. Interpretation of the existing corpus of the literature shows that subliminal messages can create negative experience which leads to hostile behaviour like derogatory comments on an African by an American citizen when the latter was primed with negative subliminal messages. Positive priming on the other hand showed weak presence in behaviour. However, research in the field of subliminal messages is required to inspect whether it is capable of improving mental health as indicated by few researches. Further exploration is required to prevent subliminal abuse. As indicated in the current study, subliminal messages when used in commercials are not capable of making a significant increase in sales figures when compared to supraliminal messages. Such messages and their wide-spread broadcast are not ethical because of the advertiser’s inclinations to use lascivious, disparaging or satanic stimuli which can lead to fatal outcomes like alleged suicide of a 10-year old boy. Positive experience or happiness is a subjective feeling and is generated by supraliminal messages which has been shown in the study to rely heavily on consciousness.

Consumer Purchase Intension (CPI) on the herbal product need to be investigated as it is one of the growing businesses against increasing competition. In this research, internal and external factors influencing the purchasing intention of consumers for herbal products were investigated. A self-administrated structured questionnaire was provided to 330 customers visited 50 prominent herbal stores in Sri Lanka using a convenient sampling technique. The collected data were subjected to test the construct validity and reliability of the data. Subsequently, the correlation and multiple regression analysis were carried out to find the association factors between CPI and other internal and external factors related to the customers of herbal products and their impacts. The results have shown that the data set was valid and reliable for ensuring analysis results. The positive strong significant (p<0.05) relationship was observed between CPI and perceived quality, value, price, and advertisement whereas significantly (p<0.05) negative relationship was shown by perceived risk. Further, the study found that perceived quality, risk, price, and trust were the significant influential factor in purchasing herbal products intensively. Therefore, herbal production firms can do all of their activities to improve the perceived quality of customers and reduce the perceived risk. Companies can produce products and develop new or existing herbal products through their Research and Development (R&D) department to diversify their products from their potential competitors. Besides, perceived risk can be minimized by distributing free samples to new consumers. Companies can use new pricing techniques as psychological pricing. And by using brand endorsers to advertise the product, the organization will raise trust in the product.
... As per Han and Hyun (2015), quality alludes to general impressions of the patrons with respect to the relative brilliance/prevalence of an item/service and its exhibitions over contending items/services and their execution.

Tem-se que a satisfação influenciou positivamente na intenção de compra, não sendo possível corroborar a relação direta entre qualidade percebida e intenção de compra. Este último resultado aponta para novas possibilidades de estudo, envolvendo uma possível mediação do construto atitude de compra. A qualidade percebida influenciou na atitude de compra e na satisfação. Notou-se, também, que a atitude de compra influenciou na satisfação. Como contribuição, tem-se uma compreensão ampla do comportamento do consumidor em compras online, em pequenos municípios, uma vez que a quantidade reduzida de lojas leva os consumidores a buscarem melhores opções de compras no e-commerce. Metodologicamente esse estudo contribui pela utilização de uma abordagem pouca empregada na proposição de modelos que envolvam os antecedentes de e-commerce.

... Perceived quality is defined as customer perception towards superiority of brand and its performance when compared to other competing brands (Aaker, 1996). Researchers believed that quality is a psychological assessment that depends on perceptual gap between tourist's expected level of experience and actual level of experience (Saleem et al., 2015). Many researchers in the past have referred perceived quality as a variable to measure brand equity in tourism field (Baalbaki & Guzman, 2016;Boo et al., 2009). ...

Tourism industry is a part of an important sector that contributes to the economic development of any country in an effective way such that the tourism stakeholders are taking efforts to develop sustainable tourism practices in order to preserve the future generation needs and hold their perception towards environment. Extant research on environmental sustainable practices has treated ‘Green’ tourism as local environmental awareness and conservative activities, failing to identify the differences in the way tourist choose destination based on green attributes and how these attributes affects the destination marketing. This study addresses this gap by exploring the relationship among attributes of green tourism and green trust and their impact on destination brand equity. Moreover, an important variable, green washing, is used to measure the moderation effects in the relationships proposed. Analysis was based on a sample of 739 Indian tourists having visited three eco-friendly destinations. Partial least square structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) technique exhibited the impact of green service attributes (green service delivery and green service support except green service policy) on green trust with significant moderation interaction effects from green washing and finally the consequent affect on destination brand equity.

This research investigated the contribution of marketing factors, including perceived product quality, perceived service quality, store atmosphere, perceived price, location, and promotion, to brand image and customer repurchase intention in chain coffee shops located in gas service stations in Bangkok. Survey data were collected from 523 customers of 30 chain coffee shops located in gas service stations throughout the Bangkok area and computed using partial least squares structural equation modeling. The results indicated that perceived product quality, store atmosphere, perceived price, promotion, and brand image were crucial for the development of customer repurchase intention. The results also showed that only perceived product quality and store atmosphere could promote repurchase intention through enhancing brand image. Since the contributions of the marketing factors to brand image and repurchase intention in the context of chain coffee shops located in gas service stations have not yet been explored, this research has provided additional evidence to the existing coffee chain, brand image, and customer repurchase intention research.

This study analyzes the factors influencing the intention to purchase sustainable local craft products in the fashion industry, specifically clothing and accessories. The study's independent variables are perceived quality, perceived value, price perception, innovation, and attitude. The dependent variable is purchasing intention. The study utilized a quantitative method with a total sample size of 400, comprising Gen Z and Millennial consumers of sustainable local fashion clothes and accessories products in NCR. The findings show that price perception, innovation, and attitude significantly influence purchase intention. However, perceived quality and value do not significantly influence purchase intention. The influence of perceived quality, perceived value, customer attitude, and innovation on purchase intention highlights the integration of sustainability into consumer behavior models. Traditional models often emphasize these factors but may not fully account for the unique dynamics of sustainable products. This study extends the understanding by showing how these variables interact in the context of sustainable fashion, emphasizing that sustainability adds a new dimension to how consumers evaluate products. It underscores that consumers of sustainable fashion products perceive quality through a broader lens, which includes the product's contribution to sustainability. This insight expands the concept of perceived quality in the literature, showing that it is not only about the tangible attributes but also the intangible ethical aspects. Customer attitude has been well-documented as a predictor of purchase intention, but this study adds nuance by focusing on sustainable fashion. It suggests that positive attitudes towards sustainability, driven by environmental consciousness and social responsibility, play a crucial role in shaping purchase intentions. This finding contributes to a deeper understanding of how attitudes specifically related to sustainability can influence consumer behavior, reinforcing the need to cultivate positive attitudes through education and awareness campaigns.

Previous studies have found relationships between variables that predict happiness and engagement. While this suggests that engagement is a basis for generating customer happiness, the literature does not provide sufficient confirmatory evidence. Thus, the effects of different engagement intensities remain unclear. Focusing on conditions related to the Starbucks brand, this study analyzed how (1) passive and active engagement impacted customer happiness and (2) happiness impacted word of mouth (WOM) and purchase intention. Data were collected through an online survey among 802 Peruvian customers, all of whom were recruited via non‐probabilistic sampling. Because two exogenous variables were considered formative (i.e., customer engagement and customer happiness), a partial least‐squares structural equation model (PLS‐SEM) was used for the analysis. In sum, engagement (both passive and active) significantly and positively impacted customer happiness, which then positively impacted WOM and purchase intention. Given that engagement is associated with variables that are broadly related to happiness, this study makes new contributions by (i) clarifying how customer engagement can generate customer happiness, (ii) identifying differences between active and passive engagement, and (iii) adding evidence for use in the debate on the purpose of marketing and traditional practices such as engagement. As discussed in the paper, these findings have theoretical and practical implications for brand managers.

The technological development of the transportation modes, non-fuel-based vehicle concept becomes the most challenging customer decision. Using internal combustion engines will cause damages to the environment by producing deleterious emissions and fossil fuels. The movement to alternative fuel vehicles (AEVs) as a sustainable transportation method supports reducing environmental issues. As it found the grey area in knowledge in Risk and benefits in the context of AEVs ,this study aimed to improve the current understanding of the risk-benefit relationship concerning intentions to adopt AFVs. This study is based on five dimensions of perceived values to measure the intention to adopt AFVs by associating perceived risk and consumer attitudes. The current investigation is based on 399 consumers, and the results depicted that quality, price, emotion, social, and ecological values greatly impact consumer attitudes towards AFVs. However, as a moderator, perceived risk impact only social and emotional values with consumer attitudes.

Religion is an integral component of Pakistani culture with a growing impact that cannot be belittled by advertisers. The purpose of this study is to understand the dominant purchase element and its impact over customer preferences when purchasing beauty products within the Pakistani market. Six independent variables were empirically studied to determine which one has the highest influence and thereby impact on customer preference when buying beauty products. Primary data was collected through questionnaires from 280 respondents in urban Karachi and regression analysis was run to determine the impact of Quality Assurance, Country of Origin, Social Recognition, Consumer Ethnocentrism, Unavailable Local Substitute, and Religiosity on Customer Preferences when purchasing beauty products. The relationship between religious conviction and states of mind toward international items shows that consumers are going to abstain from purchasing international brands out of a strong sense of religiosity. The study helps managers of beauty brands, a growing segment within the local market, to determine the elements that have the highest impact on customer preferences to better develop their product campaigns.

The purpose of this study was to compare an indirectly emerging marketing tool thus online customer reviews with an already famous marketing tool which is celebrity endorsement on tertiary students purchase intentions. The AIDMA and AISAS models were integrated to understand the stages in students purchase decisions. We designed questionnaires using a cross sectional survey design, 250 convenient samples were purposively sampled from the University of Professional Studies, Accra. The findings of the study revealed that, online customer reviews evoked significantly higher attention, interest, desire, search, action and share from the students than did celebrity endorsement. Celebrity endorsement however emerged higher than online customer reviews on the scale of students’ memory. In total, celebrity endorsement emerged slightly higher than online customer reviews. The findings offer the potential for marketers and online retailers in making the right choices of marketing promotion between OCRs and CE on tertiary students purchase decision processes and contribute academically to marketing literature.

The objective of this article is to determine whether national brand promotions and store brands attract the same value-conscious consumers, which would aggravate channel conflict between manufacturers and retailers. The authors identify psychographic and demographic traits that potentially drive usage of store brands and national brand promotions. They then develop a framework and structural equation model to study the association of these traits with store brand and national brand promotion usage. The authors find that though demographics do not influence these behaviors directly, they have significant associations with psychographic characteristics and therefore are useful for market targeting. Most important, usage of store brands and usage of promotions, particularly out-of-store promotions, are associated with different psychographics. Store brand use correlates mainly with traits related to economic benefits and costs, whereas the use of out-of-store promotions is associated mainly with traits related to hedonic benefits and costs. These differences result in four well-defined and identifiable consumer segments: deal-focused consumers, store brand-focused consumers, deal and store brand users (use-all), and nonusers of both store brands and deals (use-none). Therefore, manufacturers and retailers have the opportunity to either avoid each other or compete head to head, depending on which segment they target.

Purpose As an alternative explanation of incongruent findings in the literature, the purpose of the present study is to introduce the concept of hedonic versus utilitarian service context as a moderating variable in the relationship between the affect (pleasure and arousal) and perceived service quality and satisfaction. Design/methodology/approach A consumer survey was conducted to test moderation hypotheses, which was analyzed with hierarchical regression equations. Findings The results show that pleasure had stronger influences on perceived service quality and satisfaction in the hedonic service context than in the utilitarian service context. Arousal is found to influence perceived service quality and satisfaction in the hedonic service context but not in the utilitarian service context. Research limitations/implications It is likely that in hedonic related services, consumers will often use some affective criteria to evaluate service quality, in addition to the traditional service quality measures. Practical implications Companies providing hedonic services should modify the content of their services or add novelty stimulus into their services from time to time in order to evoke the most desired consumer emotions and enhance satisfaction. Originality/value The proposed moderating effect of service contexts improved predictions and explanations of the theoretical relationship between affect and perceived service quality/satisfaction. It specifies the conditions under which affect will or will not impact perceived service quality and satisfaction.

Changes in customer satisfaction are usually linked to a firm's performance in satisfying its clients or to developments within its direct competitive environment. In order to correctly interpret such changes in corporate consumer surveys, managers should also account for macroeconomic influences on customer satisfaction. Using data from national consumer barometers in Germany, South Korea, Sweden, and the United States, this study reveals that economic growth positively affects customer satisfaction. Based on correlation analysis and Granger tests, these results challenge recent studies claiming that, conversely, there is a unidirectional impact of customer satisfaction on economic growth. With more comprehensive data from Germany, structural equation modeling shows that economic growth drives customer satisfaction via the expansion of the average consumer's budget and via an increasing perceived value of offerings. The effect is stronger in high-tech industries, industries with rapid innovation cycles, and industries with fierce price competition.

The expectations-disconfirmation paradigm provides the most popular explanation of consumer satisfaction. However, and as is occasionally noted, if a customer experiences disconfirmation after consuming a product, future expectations regarding the product should be revised toward the performance perceived by the customer. If expectations do not change in the face of disconfirmation, the implication would be that the customer did not learn from their consumption experience. Assuming that a customer will learn from experience, then decreasing levels of disconfirmation should affect customer satisfaction. For example, if a customer is surprised by an excellent service experience he or she will be satisfied. Yet the customer now has higher expectations for the service the next time it is purchased. If product performance is consistent, the degree of disconfirmation will diminish regardless of whether the revised expectations are exceeded or just met. If disconfirmation is the best predictor of satisfaction, then satisfaction should vary directly with disconfirmation to a steady state level, despite increasing expectations. A longitudinal approach to the antecedents of consumer satisfaction logically implies the hypothesis of systematically varying consumer satisfaction.

The main objective of this study is to first find out perceived service quality using SERVQUAL and then the role of perceived value as a mediating variable in the service sector of Pakistan. Both descriptive and inferential statistical techniques are used to analyze the effects of independent variables (i.e. perceived service quality) on customer satisfaction (dependent variable) and the role of mediating variable (i.e. perceived value). Stepwise regression analysis is used to examine the effect of the mediating variable (i.e. perceived value) on customer satisfaction. Perceived value was found strongly correlated with satisfaction. Results suggested that perceived value is an important factor in customers’ evaluation of satisfaction. Unlike other studies, I use an aggregate score for perceived service quality instead of service quality characteristics.

The analysis of the consumer behavior has become one of the most important aspects in the way companies make their decision and the way they develop their strategy. Knowing the motivation and the behavior of buying of the consumers can help companies develop their strategy accordingly and by this to convince the consumers to buy more. Besides this, the behavior of the consumer is a good reflection of the image of the society, its values and its important aspects. So knowing the motivation of buying doesn’t only give directions to companies for their strategy, but also shows the development of a society. The facts presented in this article are based on an experiment about the behavior of the consumers in different retail formats in Romania. More precisely, from the observed behavior of the Romanian consumers there were build six clusters, which present the way consumers shop and the product groups which are more important for them. There are presented the methodology of the Ward cluster analysis, the characteristics and some demographic data of the clusters.

Research on consumer quality perception is reviewed using the Total Food Quality Model as a structuring device. The relationship between food safety and quality is addressed, and is discussed in the context of research on consumer risk perception. Quality and safety perception is linked to food choice and consumer demand, addressing questions of price perception and the validity of willingness-to-pay measurements. It is concluded that food quality and safety are central issues in today's food economics, though many research questions remain to be addressed. Copyright 2005, Oxford University Press.

In this article, the authors examine the circumstances in which brand names convey information about unobservable quality. They argue that a brand name can convey unobservable quality credibly when false claims will result in intolerable economic losses. These losses can occur for two reasons: (1) losses of reputation or sunk investments and (2) losses of future profits that occur whether or not the brand has a reputation. The authors test this assertion in the context of the emerging practice of brand alliances. Results from several studies are supportive of the premise and suggest that, when evaluating a product that has an important unobservable attribute, consumers’ quality perceptions are enhanced when a brand is allied with a second brand that is perceived to be vulnerable to consumer sanctions. The authors discuss the theoretical and substantive implications for the area of brand management.

The authors investigate whether it is necessary to include disconfirmation as an intervening variable affecting satisfaction as is commonly argued, or whether the effect of disconfirmation is adequately captured by expectation and perceived performance. Further, they model the process for two types of products, a durable and a nondurable good, using experimental procedures in which three levels of expectations and three levels of performance are manipulated for each product in a factorial design. Each subject's perceived expectations, performance evaluations, disconfirmation, and satisfaction are subsequently measured by using multiple measures for each construct. The results suggest the effects are different for the two products. For the nondurable good, the relationships are as typically hypothesized. The results for the durable good are different in important respects. First, neither the disconfirmation experience nor subjects’ initial expectations affected subjects’ satisfaction with it. Rather, their satisfaction was determined solely by the performance of the durable good. Expectations did combine with performance to affect disconfirmation, though the magnitude of the disconfirmation experience did not translate into an impact on satisfaction. Finally, the direct performance-satisfaction link accounts for most of the variation in satisfaction.

Both perceived service quality and labour productivity are assumed to be positively related to profitability, but a possible trade-off effect between these two phenomena could distort these relationships. In an exploratory study, measures of perceived service quality, customer satisfaction and patronage behaviour were collected from customers in four Swedish grocery stores, representing four combinations of profitability and productivity. These measures were compared with productivity and profitability measures for the stores. Although perceived service quality was positively related to customer loyalty, there was no link to profitability. However, the results indicate a negative relationship between labour productivity and perceived service quality.

This article develops an information economics perspective on the value (or equity) ascribed to brands by consumers. Unlike research based on cognitive psychology, the proposed signaling perspective explicitly considers the imperfect and asymmetrical information structure of the market. It motivates the role of credibility (determined endogenously by the dynamic interactions between firms and consumers) as the primary determinant of consumer-based brand equity. Thus, when consumers are uncertain about product attributes, firms may use brands to inform consumers about product positions and to ensure that their product claims are credible. Thus, brands may signal product positions credibly. Brands as market signals improve consumer perceptions about brand attribute levels and increase confidence in brands' claims. The reduced uncertainty lowers information costs and the risk perceived by consumers, thus increasing consumers' expected utility. This chain of relations that drives consumer-based brand equity is presented as a structural model and tested empirically in the linear structural relations framework using survey data on jeans and juice. The results are consistent with the proposed relations embodied in the signaling perspective on brand equity.

The processes of consumer perception and decision making remain relatively complex phenomena despite the depth of research undertaken in the area. One way in which these processes may be influenced is through the explicit mentioning of product attributes in advertising. This study investigates consumer perceptions of mentioned product attributes in magazine advertising for a specific product category. Results confirm a clear relationship between attributes specifically mentioned in advertising for the three selected brands and respondents’ rating of those attributes against evaluative criteria for the product category. Factor analyses of respondents’ ratings indicate a clear convergence of factors extracted and the mentioned attributes for each brand.

The growing number of academic studies on customer satisfaction and the mixed findings they report complicate efforts among managers and academics to identify the antecedents to, and outcomes of, businesses having more-versus less-satisfied customers. These mixed findings and the growing emphasis by managers on having satisfied customers point to the value of empirically synthesizing the evidence on customer satisfaction to assess current knowledge. To this end, the authors conduct a meta-analysis of the reported findings on customer satisfaction. They document that equity and disconfirmation are most strongly related to customer satisfaction on average. They also find that measurement and method factors that characterize the research often moderate relationship strength between satisfaction and its antecedents and outcomes. The authors discuss the implications surrounding these effects and offer several directions for future research.

Both practitioners and academics understand that consumer loyalty and satisfaction are linked inextricably. They also understand that this relation is asymmetric. Although loyal consumers are most typically satisfied, satisfaction does not universally translate into loyalty. To explain the satisfaction-loyalty conundrum, the author investigates what aspect of the consumer satisfaction response has implications for loyalty and what portion of the loyalty response is due to this satisfaction component. The analysis concludes that satisfaction is a necessary step in loyalty formation but becomes less significant as loyalty begins to set through other mechanisms. These mechanisms, omitted from consideration in current models, include the roles of personal determinism ("fortitude") and social bonding at the institutional and personal level. When these additional factors are brought into account, ultimate loyalty emerges as a combination of perceived product superiority, personal fortitude, social bonding, and their synergistic effects. As each fails to be attained or is unattainable by individual firms that serve consumer markets, the potential for loyalty erodes. A disquieting conclusion from this analysis is that loyalty cannot be achieved or pursued as a reasonable goal by many providers because of the nature of the product category or consumer disinterest. For some firms, satisfaction is the only feasible float for which they should strive; thus, satisfaction remains a worthy pursuit among the consumer marketing community. The disparity between the pursuit of satisfaction versus loyalty, as well as the fundamental content of the loyalty response, poses several investigative directions for the next wave of postconsumption research.

The authors examine two aspects of brand loyalty, purchase loyalty and attitudinal loyalty, as linking variables in the chain of effects from brand trust and brand affect to brand performance (market share and relative price). The model includes product-level, category-related controls (hedonic value and utilitarian value) and brand-level controls (brand differentiation and share of voice). The authors compile an aggregate data set for 107 brands from three separate surveys of consumers and brand managers. The results indicate that when the product- and brand-level variables are controlled for, brand trust and brand affect combine to determine purchase loyalty and attitudinal loyalty. Purchase loyalty, in turn, leads to greater market share, and attitudinal loyalty leads to a higher relative price for the brand. The authors discuss the managerial implications of these results.

This paper analyzes the shopping behavior of consumers across space within the context of multipurpose shopping. The degree of multipurpose shopping is derived, as are the optimal number of single- and multipurpose trips, and the quantities of high- and low-order goods purchased on such trips. It is shown that all consumer choice variables are a function of consumer location relative to producer location. The consumer analysis is then utilized as an input into the profit-maximizing equation that determines optimal producer location. The model is illustrated through the use of numerical analysis.

The extent to which members of different cultures vary in their reactions to uncertainty can have a major impact on how perceived service quality affects customer satisfaction. This article addresses the issue of cultural differences in the context of business-to-business relationships. A study involving 303 Spanish, German, and Swedish business-to-business customers reveals that clients from cultures with a high degree of uncertainty avoidance were less satisfied than low-uncertainty avoidant clients when, as a result of a service defect, their service expectations were not met. In light of the tolerance zone concept, the finding suggests a narrower range of acceptable outcomes for high-uncertainty avoidance cultures. Important management implications of this study relate to service quality efforts, which should be explicitly designed to reflect inter-cultural differences in operations planning and training of service personnel.

textlessptextgreaterThe authors investigate the conceptualization and measurement of service quality and the relationships between service quality, consumer satisfaction, and purchase intentions. A literature review suggests that the current operationalization of service quality confounds satisfaction and attitude. Hence, the authors test (1) an alternative method of operationalizing perceived service quality and (2) the significance of the relationships between service quality, consumer satisfaction, and purchase intentions. The results suggest that (1) a performance-based measure of service quality may be an improved means of measuring the service quality construct, (2) service quality is an antecedent of consumer satisfaction, (3) consumer satisfaction has a significant effect on purchase intentions, and (4) service quality has less effect on purchase intentions than does consumer satisfaction. Implications for managers and future research are discussed.

In this paper we compare quality management practices in three different countries: India, China and Mexico. Various constructs representing quality management practices and quality results were conceptualized. Using a questionnaire survey instrument, data was collected in India, China, and Mexico. Multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA) was used to analyze the data. The MANOVA results point to statistically significant differences with respect to quality practices among these countries. Top management support turned out to be a very significant factor affecting all quality practices while information and analysis as well quality assurance practices were affected by length of quality experience in organizations.
