Word Of Mouth Communication

Social media platforms have become a major forum for consumers to interact with firms and other individuals. Drawing on both the customer-dominant logic and the theory of planned behavior, the present chapter aims to advance understanding and encourage research on the variables that drive consumers' online purchase intention. Al though there is a general agreement in recognizing the importance of social media platforms as a source of information about consumer behavior, a complete theorization of the variables that affect the relation between behavioral intention and online purchase intention is still lacking. The proposed theoretical model is an extension of the theory of planned behavior and incorporates trust and electronic word-of-mouth communication as part of the customers' online purchase intention. Finally, the theoretical and managerial implications are further discussed.

Practical Implications

Generation Z (Gen-Z) consumers have been averred to rely on electronic word of mouth (eWOM) for making purchase decisions and expect integrity in brand communication. A significant question bearing both theoretical and practical implications, however, is how the tendency of these consumers to associate brand image with brand integrity influences the impact of eWOM on their purchase intentions, which remains unanswered. Also, studies focusing on a specific gender of Gen-Z consumers are limited. Using the signaling theory and a survey, the study suggests that eWOM signals play a significant role in influencing purchase intentions among female Gen-Z consumers, as well as their perceptions of the brand image and the brand integrity of makeup brands. For female Gen-Z consumers, eWOM signals that enhance the perceptions of brand integrity and brand image tend to equally matter in their makeup purchase decision making. These findings have implications for an industry that is marked by increasing demand for transparency and responsible marketing communication.

The Relationship

The electronic service quality (ES-QUAL) of the e-commerce service providers plays a central role. The primary purpose of this paper is to investigate the effect of the ES-QUAL model's four dimensions (efficiency, fulfillment, privacy, and system availability) on purchase intention and examine ES-QUAL's relationship with electronic word-of-mouth (EWOM), brand image, and purchase intention. This research uses Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) for empirical analysis.  Results show ES-QUAL model positively and significantly impacts purchase intention, and the effect of the ES-QUAL model relatively increases when mediated by electronic word of mouth (EWOM) and brand image. This research provides insights to E-marketers, entrepreneurs, and e-commerce players to improve online consumers' purchase intention, sales, and services. Practitioners can gain customers' attention by enhancing the quality of their websites and by assuring efficiency, privacy, system availability, and fulfilling their promise about delivering products. They also need to consider EWOM and brand image, as both positively impact online purchase intention, which can lead to the overall sustainable development of an organization.JEL Classification: M31, L81How to Cite:Baqai, S., Qureshi, J.
