Online Reviews Meet Visual Attention: A Study on Consumer Patterns in Advertising, Analyzing Customer Satisfaction, Visual Engagement, and Purchase Intention

This study aims to bridge the gap between traditional consumer behavior analysis and modern techniques by integrating big data analysis, eye-tracking technology, and survey methods. The researchers considered that understanding consumer behavior is crucial for creating effective advertisements in the digital age. Initially, a big data analysis was performed to identify significant clusters of consumer sentiment from online reviews generated during a recent seasonal promotional campaign. The key factors were identified and grouped into the “Product”, “Model”, “Promo”, and “Effect” categories. Using these clusters as a foundation, an eye-tracking analysis measured visual attention metrics such as the fixation duration and count to understand how the participants engaged with the different advertisement content. Subsequently, a survey assessed the same participants’ purchase intentions and preferences related to the identified clusters. The results showed that the sentiment clusters related to products, promotions, and effects positively impacted the customer satisfaction. The eye-tracking data revealed that advertisements featuring products and models garnered the most visual attention, while the survey results indicated that promotional content significantly influenced the purchase intentions. This multi-step approach delivers an in-depth understanding of the factors that affect customer satisfaction and decision-making, providing valuable information for optimizing marketing strategies in the Korean skincare market. The findings emphasize the importance of integrating consumer sentiment analysis with visual engagement metrics to develop more effective and compelling marketing campaigns.

Research on Potential Customer Mining Models for Electric Vehicles Based on Machine Learning Models and Service Growth Models

This study investigates the factors that impact the sales of electric vehicles (EVs) across different brands. Initially, multiple linear regression was performed on the data, and the variance inflation factors were all found to be less than 10. For the first category of indicators, one-way ANOVA was conducted to separate the three types of brands. For the second category of indicators, a logistic regression model was developed to complete the selection. Through multiple rounds of filtering, the following indicators were determined: For the first category, indicators affecting Brand 1 are A1, A2, A3, A4; indicators affecting Brand 2 are A1, A3; indicators affecting Brand 3 are A1, A2, A3, A5. For all brands, the second category of influencing indicators includes B4, B10, B11, B16, B17. A potential customer mining model was then established. Logistic regression models were created based on the sales influencing factors for different brands, and the model formulas for the three types of brands were calculated. The purchase intentions of 15 target customers were predicted, with an accuracy rate of up to 90%. Finally, the study explores whether increasing service efforts could change customer purchase intentions. A stepwise percentage service growth model was established, incorporating an initial service difficulty coefficient to determine how service satisfaction could be altered. Customers 2, 8, and 11 were selected for validation, and their respective service increment percentages were derived, leading to sales strategies tailored to these three customers.

The moderating effect of system quality on the relationship between customer satisfaction and purchase intention: PLS-SEM & fsQCA approaches

The study aims to understand the antecedents of customer behaviour that lead to high purchase intention, encompassing moderating role of system quality to achieve purchase intention. Theoretically, this research employs the technology acceptance model to examine the proposed relationship and complexity theory to employ fuzzy-set qualitative comparative analysis (fsQCA) as a robust complementary method to the partial least squares-structural equation model (PLS-SEM). The proposed conceptual model is measured using data gathered from online customers in Bangladesh's electronic market. A survey of 311 e-commerce customers, using PLS-SEM and fsQCA models, reveals that the antecedents of the customer behavioural practices are highly correlated to achieving purchase intention. The findings from PLS-SEM show that perceived enjoyment and perceived ease of use are highly supported by purchase intention. Similarly, system quality influences purchase intention and acts as a moderator. In the fsQCA analysis, hedonic motivation and perceived enjoyment are necessary conditions to achieve a high purchase intention. The hybrid models add the methodological contribution by combining both symmetric and asymmetric relationships, thereby providing a holistic understanding of system quality as a moderating factor to achieve high purchase intention, especially in the context of the e-commerce market in Bangladesh. This research outlines implications for the theoretical and managerial perspectives to build a better relationship between factors of satisfaction and purchase intention and enable policymakers to contribute better managerial decisions.

Key Determinants to Drive Motor Insurance Customer Acquisition in Western Province, Sri Lanka: A Focus on the Marketing Mix

Purpose: There is a significant need for a comprehensive insurance policy for all vehicle owners, especially considering the growing emphasis on health and safety, and public protection. The substantial preference for 3rd party insurance over comprehensive policy covers has created a hurdle for insurance companies, both in terms of acquiring new customers and retaining existing ones. This prevailing trend has presented a significant challenge to the growth potential of general insurance firms in the market. The main purpose of this study is to investigate how factors such as product, price, promotion, and distribution network influence the customer purchase intention towards motor insurance. Design/methodology/approach: This was a cross-sectional study using a deductive research approach. Data were gathered from 412 policy holders in Sri Lanka using a self-administered structured questionnaire. Multiple regression analysis was used to determine the most influencing factor among product, price, promotion and distribution network influencing customer purchase intention towards motor insurance. Findings: Based on the analysis, the insurance service [product], insurance premium [price], promotion and distribution network have a significant relationship with the customer purchase intention towards motor insurance policies in Sri Lanka. Among the factors tested, distribution network and insurance service have the most significant impact on customer purchase intention with reference to motor insurance segment. Originality: This study provides a unique contribution by highlighting the critical role of the distribution network, particularly the combination of Place and People elements, in driving motor insurance customer acquisition in Sri Lanka. Unlike prior studies that emphasize price and promotional strategies, this research focuses on the integrated influence of accessibility and personalized service. The findings demonstrate that a well-established distribution network outweighs traditional marketing factors in influencing purchase decisions, offering a new perspective on consumer behavior in the Sri Lankan motor insurance industry. Implications: The findings of this study will pave the way for a paradigm shift where, insurance firms could understand and develop relevant strategies to improve services provided to the existing and potential motor insurance customers. By analyzing what truly matters to Sri Lankan drivers, both insurance service providers as well as regulatory authorities can ally and develop a holistic insurance policy that comprehensively covers all aspects of vehicle ownership, filling the void in the current market. According to the findings, it can be advised that the insurance corporations should focus more on providing a product with more unique features and invest in creating a solid network of branches across the country which are fortified with skilled and service-oriented personnel who could persuade the customers in buying comprehensive insurance covers. Future researchers can also focus on income and educational level as moderators since both of which have an impact on consumer behavior as suggested in prior literature. Also, there is a possibility of widening their scopes by considering other types of insurance products and expand the geographical area as well.
