Abstract

This study aims to explain the cause of price differences of bi-national products based on consumer response of product type, distribution channel, and consumer nationality, respectively. Specifically this study investigated whether price discount and distribution channel affect consumer evaluation by luxury and non-luxury product type. In the case of bi-national product toward the non-luxury, price discount had positive influence on preference, regardless of distribution channel. By revealing the influence of price discount on bi-national products on consumer response of product type and distribution channel respectively, the study suggests meaningful implications for the strategic management of bi-national products.

본 연구는 복합원산지제품의 가격할인이 특정제품의 소비행동에 어떠한 영향을 미치는지를 살펴보고자 하였다. 가격할인은 장기적으로 기업의 출혈경쟁을 야기하고 브랜드 자산에 부정적인 영향을 미치기도 하지만, 기업의 단기적인 수익성 증대에 도움을 주기 때문이다. 이에 복합원산지제품의 가격할인이 어떻게 효율성을 증대시킬 수 있는지 제품유형별, 유통채널별로 차이가 있는지를 비교함으로써 세분시장에서의 전략적 대안들을 모색하고자 하였다. 본 연구는 총 223명의 피험자를 대상으로 실험을 실시하였다. 연구결과, 사치재 복합원산지제품은 고급유통채널인 백화점에서 가격할인을 실시할 때 제품선호수준이 높아지는 것으로 나타났다. 반면 비사치재 복합원산지제품은 유통채널별 상호작용효과보다는 가격할인여부에 따라 선호수준이 높아지는 것으로 나타났다. 가격할인이 복합원산지제품에 대한 소비자의 반응에 미치는 영향을 제품유형과 유통채널별로 살펴본 본 연구의 결과는 기업이 복합원산지제품 전략을 수립할 때 차별화된 대안을 제공해 줄 수 있을 것으로 여겨진다.
