Book Different Factors Affecting Customer Satisfaction For Young Generations In Fine Dining Restaurant

Download or read book Different Factors Affecting Customer Satisfaction For Young Generations In Fine Dining Restaurant written by Heyjin Koo and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Customer satisfaction is influenced by various factors. As the restaurant industry is vastly expanding worldwide, restaurant industry professionals must understand what builds and affects customer satisfaction based on cultural differences, especially for fine dining restaurants, as customers tend to have higher expectations for such establishments. This study sought to compare and contrast the different factors affecting customer satisfaction in fine dining restaurants in two different cultures. The two countries, the United States and South Korea, embody individualism and collectivism, respectively, based on Hofstede's (1980) model of cultural dimensions. Adopting a quantitative approach, past dining experiences at fine dining restaurants were measured with foci on the food quality, service quality, physical environment, similarity to other customers, and physical appearance of other customers. The reliability variables were tested using Cronbach's alpha and factor analysis. Also, t tests were conducted to ascertain the significance of mean differences. Regression analysis was conducted to test research hypotheses. Besides investigating the differences in factors affecting customer satisfaction in fine dining restaurants among the different cultures, this study sought to present practical managerial implications that can be implied to a restaurant business that is rapidly growing worldwide. Results show that food quality, service quality, and physical appearance of other customers had no distinctive effects on customer satisfaction between participants from the United States or South Korea. Physical environment and similarity to other customers appeared to have higher impacts on the United States population compared to the South Korean population.

Book Strong Brands  Strong Relationships

Download or read book Strong Brands Strong Relationships written by Susan Fournier and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-06-12 with total page 342 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the editor team of the ground-breaking Consumer-Brand Relationships: Theory and Practice comes this new volume. Strong Brands, Strong Relationships is a collection of innovative research and management insights that build upon the foundations of the first book, but takes the study of brand relationships outside of traditional realms by applying new theoretical frameworks and considering new contexts. The result is an expanded and better-informed account of people’s relationships with brands and a demonstration of the important and timely implications of this evolving sub-discipline. A range of different brand relationship environments are explored in the collection, including: online digital spaces, consumer collectives, global brands, luxury brands, branding in terrorist organizations, and the brand relationships of men and transient consumers. This book attends to relationship endings as well as their beginnings, providing a full life-cycle perspective. While the first volume focused on positive relationship benefits, this collection explores dysfunctional dynamics, adversarial and politically-charged relationships, and those that are harmful to well-being. Evocative constructs are leveraged, including secrets, betrayals, anthropomorphism, lying, infidelity, retaliation, and bereavement. The curated collection provides both a deeper theoretical understanding of brand relationship phenomena and ideas for practical application from experiments and execution in commercial practice. Strong Brands, Strong Relationships will be the perfect read for marketing faculty and graduate students interested in branding dynamics, as well as managers responsible for stewarding brands.
