Purpose: Social media influencers (SMIs) have become significant sources of information influencing their followers' purchase intentions; few studies have been published on the effect of the number of followers and package tour prices on followers' purchase intention within the Vietnam travel industry utilizing naïve theories. This study examined the relationship between the number of followers and purchase intention and tested the moderating role of package tour price. Research Design, data and methodology: A 2 (number of followers: high vs. medium) × 2 (package tour price: high vs. low) between-subjects factorial design was used. 395 Vietnamese students (114 men, 281 women; M_age = 19.99, SD_age = 1.25) from Thuongmai University participated in the study. ANOVA and PROCESS MARCO were used to test hypotheses. Results: Findings indicate that participants show a higher purchase intention for SMIs with a higher number of followers than those with a medium one. When the package tour price is high, participants with a medium number of followers show a greater purchase intention than those with a high one. Conclusion: This recommendsthat tourism managers collaborate with SMIs with a high number of followers when the package tour price is low and with SMIs with medium ones when the package tour price is high.

묶음판매(bundling) 전략이란 2개 이상의 제품이나 서비스를 단일 가격으로 판매하는 마케팅 방법으로 여행사들은 적은 비용으로 많은 상품을 판매하위 위한 수단으로 여행 패키지라는 묶음판매 전략을 사용하고 있다. 본 논문은 여행 패키지의 묶음판매(bundling) 전략에 관하여 연구하였다. 이를 위해 美 북동부와 캐나다를 10일간 여행하는 여행 패키지 상품을 상정하였다. 연구자들은 여행 패키지를 2(pure bundling vs. mixed bundling) ${\times}$ 3(0% lower than sum, 10% lower than sum, 20% lower than sum) ${\times}$ 3(not at all related, somewhat related, very related)의 54개의 여행 패키지로 디자인 하였다. 조사 자료에 대한 분석방법은 변수들의 신뢰도와 타당도를 검증하기 위해 실뢰도 계수인 Cronbach's ${\alpha}$ 계수와 요인분석을 이용하였고 가설검증을 위하여 t-test와 ANOVA를 사용하여 실증분석 하였다. 실증 분석결과 연구자들의 예상대로 여행 패키지를 구성하는 개별적인 여행 구성상품들의 개수와 구성상품들의 할인율 그리고 여행 패키지 구성상품들 사이의 기능적인(functional) 관계가 관광객들의 인식에 차이를 미쳤다. 결과적으로 관광객들은 할인율의 폭이 크던 작던 일정 정도의 여행 패키지에 대한 할인을 기대하였으며, 여행 패키지를 구성하는 개별상품들의 개수가 많아지는 방향을 선호하였다. 또한 여행 패키지를 구성하는 개별상품들 간의 관계가 이질적인 여행 패키지를 선호하는 것으로 밝혀졌다.

Tour products have been recognized as a perishable asset. For tour operation companies (TOCs), improving profitability is a core decision problem for their business. Since package tour products, typical products of TOCs, are perishable after the tour was departed, TOCs have been tried to increase their sales before the departure date with various marketing strategies including price discounts. The pricing problem for perishable assets have been studied in Revenue Management for a long time. However, it is hard to find a research on pricing decisions for tour products. In this paper, we focus on a pricing problem for tour products. In particular, we will consider the pricing scheme with customer preference values on purchasing conditions. With conjoint analysis, we can use the part-worth value as a preference value for each level of purchasing conditions. To construct various discount prices, we use an enumeration method and suggest a mathematical optimization model. With experimental analysis for a sample tour package, we will show that our pricing process is very helpful for designing customer-oriented pricing decision.
