Is it all about consumer engagement? : Explaining continuance intention for utilitarian and hedonic service consumption
2020
This paper compares the explanatory power of consumer engagement (CE) regarding service continuance intention with the variables of attitude (utilitarian and hedonic) and satisfaction. Survey data were collected from users of mobile music (n = 596) and mobile parking (n = 297) services. The partial least squares method was applied to analyze the data. In line with expectations, the findings show that attitude and satisfaction are superior drivers of service continuance intention compared to CE when service is used for utilitarian reasons. In contrast, when service consumption is driven by hedonic reasons, CE is a stronger driver than satisfaction. However, no evidence for the superiority of…
Käyttäjäkokemuksen vaikutukset asiakkaiden ostopäätökseen ja sitouttamiseen verkkokaupassa
2016
Tässä tutkielmassa käsitellään kirjallisuuskatsauksen keinoin käyttäjäkokemuksen vaikutuksia asiakkaiden ostopäätökseen ja sitouttamiseen verkkokaupassa. Aiheeseen paneudutaan aluksi esittelemällä verkkokaupankäynnin ja käyttäjäkokemuksen kokonaisuudet, jotka lopuksi yhdistetään käsittelemällä käyttäjäkokemuksen vaikutuksia verkkokaupoissa. Tarkastelun kohteena on B2C-verkkokaupankäynti (Business to Consumer). Kaupankäynnin yleistyminen verkossa luo jatkuvasti kovempaa kilpailua kauppiaiden välille. Tästä syystä uusien asiakkaiden houkuttelu ja jo olemassa olevien sitouttaminen vaatii verkkokaupalta enemmän kuin ainoastaan jokaiselta sivustolta löytyvät perustoiminnallisuudet, jotta verkkok…
Asiakasuskollisuuden muodostuminen jäsenyyteen perustuvien palvelujen kontekstissa : Case SatsElixia
2016
Tutkimuksen tavoitteena oli tutkia liikuntakeskus SatsElixian asiakkaiden kokeman arvon vaikutusta asiakastyytyväisyyteen. Lisäksi haluttiin selvittää tyytyväisyyden ja uskollisuuden välistä suhdetta testaamalla sitä koettujen vaihtokustannusten sekä vaihtoehtoisten palveluntarjoajien houkuttelevuuden mediaatiovaikutusten kautta. Vaikka aiempia tutkimuksia asiakkaiden kokemasta arvosta sekä tyytyväisyyden ja uskollisuuden välisestä suhteesta löytyi paljon, oli kuitenkin mielekästä tutkia käsitteiden välisiä suhteita juuri jäsenyyteen perustuvien palvelujen kontekstissa testaamalla niiden lujuutta vaihtokustannusten ja vaihtoehtoisten palveluntarjoajien mediaatiovaikutuksilla. Teoriaosuudess…
Does the digitalization of retailing disrupt consumers’ attachment to retail places?
2022
This study breaks new ground in the marketing domain by extending the concept of place attachment to the study of the online retail environment. We provide empirical evidence that consumers can establish strong attachments not only with traditional offline places but also with online retail stores. Moreover, we assessed how distinct dimensions of the place affect the formation of consumers’ attachment and their behavioral loyalty. Our findings show that while consumers who feel a strong sense of attachment toward the place engage in spreading positive word-of-mouth regardless of the environment, their attachment to the store does not prevent them from switching to another provider, especial…

How value and trust influence loyalty in wireless telecommunications industry
2012
Despite making significant investments in enhancing the customer service experience, long-term customer loyalty remains an elusive dream for many service providers. Particularly in the telecommunications industry, switching providers even from within continuous contract relationships is easy and companies struggle to retain their customers. Trust and value are considered cornerstones of long-term relationships, so it is perhaps surprising that previous research on how relationship age and usage level actually affect value, trust and loyalty is inconclusive. The current research is set in the telecommunications services field and draws on a large-scale survey undertaken in Finland. The findi…
Customer perceived value, satisfaction, and loyalty: the role of willingness to share information
2016
This study proposes and tests an integrative model to examine the relationships among customers’ willingness to share information, satisfaction, perceived value, and loyalty in a retailing context. This study extends research on customers’ willingness to share information from trust and privacy concerns toward key outcome measures such as perceived value, customer satisfaction, and loyalty, and is thus among the first to model customers’ willingness to share information with companies in robust theoretical retailing frameworks. The proposed relationships were tested using data from two retailing contexts – groceries (N = 429) and do-it-yourself (DIY) (N = 895). Findings from the two samples…
Understanding moderating effects in increasing share-of-wallet and word-of-mouth : A case study of Lidl grocery retailer
2018
This study examines how five moderating variables (the length of the customer relationship, following a company in print media and on social media, remembering online advertisements, and the customer’s age) affect the relationships between perceived value and loyalty and satisfaction and loyalty in the grocery retailing sector. A series of hypotheses were developed and tested with a sample of 2,072 discount retailer customers in Finland. The results support all the direct effects hypotheses and show that perceived value and satisfaction both have a positive effect on loyalty, measured as a share of wallet and word of mouth and that the effect of perceived value tends to be stronger in the s…
Investigating the Impact of Rewarded Social Media Engagement, Trust, Perceived Switching Cost and Loyalty on Loyalty Members in Sports Industry
2023
Social media has changed the way people interact with companies and one another as well as become a powerful tool for enhancing touchpoints with customers. While many studies on loyalty, loyalty/reward programmes exists, there is still a gap in our understanding of how social media, rewarded engagement and loyalty programmes (LPs) work together. Against this backdrop, this chapter aims to increase our understanding of the role of rewarded social media engagement in LPs and customer loyalty amongst members versus non-members. To explore the relationship and to differentiate between members and non-members, this study explores rewarded social media engagement, trust, perceived switching cost …
The complex nature of brand relationships : interpersonal or parasocial love?
2016
Tämän tutkimuksen tarkoituksena oli tarjota syvällisempää ymmärrystä kuluttajien ja heidän lempibrändiensä välisten suhteiden luonteesta. Syvempi ymmärrys auttaa organisaatioita rakentamaan ja kehittämään omia brändejä, sekä ymmärtämään, mitä kuluttajat tuntevat brändejä kohtaan ja miksi. Tutkimus keskittyi erityisesti kahteen eri suhdetyyppiin – interpersonaaliseen ja parasosiaaliseen – sekä siihen, kumpaa näistä suhdetyypeistä tutkimus edustaa. Suhteita arvioitiin myös brändihistorian, brändiuskollisuuden ja brändirakkauden käsitteiden kautta. Tutkimuskysymykset olivat 1) liittyykö brändisuhteisiin interpersonaalisia piirteitä, 2) liittyykö brändisuhteisiin parasosiaalisia piirteitä, ja 3…
