This study explores the antecedents and consequences of customer engagement behaviors in the Thai mobile network business. This study found that the approach to switching behavior and cross-buying behavior is connected to customer loyalty behaviors. However, the spending behaviors of customers may not be a good indicator of customer loyalty in the mobile network business because those who do not have the intention to switch to another brand do not necessarily increase their spending. In addition, most respondents are concerned with competitive promotional packages, which influence customer engagement behaviors. Hence, it was proposed that service quality and competitive promotional packages are antecedents to customer engagement behaviors and all these factors are important in explaining customer loyalty toward mobile network providers in Thailand.

This study aims to understand the effect of salon selection factors on customer satisfaction and customer loyalty through SNS to provide marketing strategies to increase salon profits through SNS. In the SPSS 21.0 program, frequency analysis, factor analysis, reliability analysis, and multiple regression analysis were performed using data from the final 301 part of the questionnaire. The results of the survey are as follows. First of all, the characteristics of SNS were universal and tangible, divided into information, reliability, and beauty salon options. In addition, customer satisfaction and customer loyalty are divided into a single dimension. Second, it was reported that the more the latest information on SNS characteristics is recognized, the higher the customer satisfaction and customer loyalty are. Third, it was found that the more reliable objective information on the factors for selecting beauty salons through SNS was recognized, the higher customer satisfaction and customer loyalty were. Taken together, it is expected that a differentiated education system through SNS will be introduced, and sales will improve by positively affecting customer satisfaction and customer loyalty. In subsequent studies, more reliable studies are expected to be conducted through age diversification and segmentation of various variables.
