Based on the theory of customer perceived value, this paper makes an empirical analysis on the purchase intention of community fresh O2O, and proposes the customer perceived value concept including result, program, service, social and emotional value. At the same time, the intermediary variable of consumption attitude is put forward and the theoretical model constructed. It is verified that perceived value significantly influences purchase intention and consumption attitude, and plays an intermediary role between them by regression analysis method. This detailed study on the mechanism of perceived value influencing purchase intention through consumption attitude is of great guidance value.


Customer-perceived value constitutes at the core of competition of brands. This analysis is done in light of the case between Apple and Samsung over customer perceived value (CPV) on brands among the students of Japan and Bangladesh. Therefore, the main research question of this study is to compare brand preferences between Apple and Samsung among students of two countries. This study is followed by quantitative research approach. Both primary and secondary data were used in this research. Primary data were obtained through structured questionnaires given to respondents for in depth interview. Data were analyzed using statistical software: SPSS. The research result revealed that the brand loyalty is high among Apple users; hence Apple has a strong brand preference over Samsung among the students of Japan. In contrast, brand loyalty is high among Samsung users in Bangladesh since it has a strong brand preference over Apple because of open-sourced Android operating system and cheaper price of the product. The study has shown that the customer perceived value of Apple is higher than that of Samsung. The study also found that the brand image of Apple was relatively better as compared to that of Samsung in most of the traits studied especially in quality, price, operating system, and after sales service. This paper provides a comparative analysis on customer perceived value on brand of two giant smartphone companies and through this analysis it can be concluded that at present Samsung is the best brand for smartphone users in Bangladesh, in contrast, Apple is the leading brand in Japan to smartphone users.

This study investigates the interrelationships among brand personality, brand preference, customer perceived value, and golfers’ performance in the context of Taiwan’s golf clubs market. The theoretical and statistical relationships among these constructs are developed and verified. Using survey data from 345 out of 1,000 randomly selected golfers, this study employs ANOVA, Factor Analysis, and Discriminant Analysis to examine the research hypotheses. The findings reveal that (1) notable brand personality factors including Reliability, Fashion, Masculine, Excitement, Wholesome, Leadership, Sentiment, Feminine, and Uniqueness could explain brand preference to a large extent, (2) golfers’ customer perceived value regarding various golf brands are considerably dissimilar, and (3) golfers’ deviation in performance significantly relates to brands. In addition to conventional bases for market segmentation (i.e., demographics, psychographics, lifestyles, etc.), this paper clearly provides practical guidelines of implementing brand personality for market segmentation and promotion strategies. Brand personality proves to be a useful segmenting variable. The findings and the statistical results offer supportive evidence for implementing appropriate branding management on both functional (i.e., customer perceived value and performance) and emotional attributes (i.e., brand personality) in order to enhance competitiveness.

Purpose – Global mobile communication is one of the most dynamic and important service markets. Several researchers suggest using a theoretical approach to develop a much deeper insight into key marketing constructs such as service quality, customer perceived value, customer satisfaction, perceived switching costs, corporate image, and customer loyalty is of vital importance to the mobile communications market. This study aims to develop and test a comprehensive hierarchical model of these six important constructs. The model also incorporates the retailing function of a major mobile communication provider. Design/methodology/approach – The research sample of 516 was drawn from customers of one of the largest mobile communications service providers in China. The data were analysed using exploratory factor analysis, confirmatory factor analysis and structural equation modelling. Findings – The results of the study support using a hierarchical and multidimensional approach for conceptualising and measuring customers' perceptions of service quality in the mobile communications market. In addition, the findings illustrate that service quality is an important determinant of customer perceived value, customer satisfaction, corporate image, and perceived switching costs. Customer perceived value is also an antecedent of customer satisfaction. Corporate image, customer satisfaction, and perceived switching costs are three key drivers of customer loyalty. However, the findings also indicate that corporate image is not an important determinant of customer satisfaction and that customer perceived value is not a key driver of customer loyalty. Originality/value – This is the first paper that has developed and tested a comprehensive hierarchical model of the mobile communications market.
