Abstract:PurposeThis study aims to identify, within the context of the French fashion industry, the characteristics of multichannel shoppers, that is, consumers who use more than one channel in a single shopping trip. We especially investigate whether consumers' focus on quality versus price affects their multichannel shopping tendency and their flexibilities in their shopping lists (basket flexibility).Design/methodology/approachWe surveyed a representative sample of 400 French shoppers regarding fashion apparel purch… Show more
“…Regarding data analysis, all the case studies are qualitative and used multiple data sources and analysed data using transcription, coding, theme generation and complemented the findings with the analysis of observations and secondary data. On the contrary, empirical survey‐based studies have majorly applied structural equation modelling as a primary data analysis method to analyse the linear relationship among selected variables (Dahl et al., 2019; Hallikainen et al, 2019; Hamouda, 2019; Jo et al., 2020, Kang, 2019; Lee, 2020; Li et al., 2018; Ma, 2017; Shen et al., 2018; Song et al., 2019b).…”

The emergence of omnichannel retailing has revolutionized the way traditional e‐commerce business operates, subsequently bringing fundamental changes to consumer expectations and decision‐making processes. Despite the unquestionable relevance of this area of inquiry, the focal literature concerning omnichannel retailing remains sporadic and fragmented. With this in mind, the purpose of the current paper is to provide a comprehensive and concise state of the art literature review on omnichannel retailing. More specifically, we engage and draw upon the cognitive‐affective‐conative model to understand consumer behaviour within the omnichannel retailing context. The current study is built based on a review of total 131 research papers that were identified following a comprehensive search of the Web of Science database, capturing the time period between January 2011 and April 2020. This set of work was reviewed thoroughly to explore the aims, methodology and key contributions. In addition to engaging a systematic assessment and rigorous evaluation of the studies, we also extend literature by studying the relationship between omnichannel retailing and consumer decision making, with specific attention to consumer motivation, attitude and behaviour towards omnichannel retailing. Previous studies suggest consumer behaviour in omnichannel retailing to be a promising yet underexplored area with several potential avenues for future research. Among these, particularly lucrative directions include theory‐driven research, comparative cross‐cultural studies and qualitative approaches that capture rich first‐hand accounts of consumer decision‐making encounters. The current paper is timely and advantageous because it offers a holistic picture of omnichannel retailing research and provides literature‐driven evidence about a range of relevant consumer behavioural dimensions. It also integrates consumer responses using the cognitive‐affective‐conative model to advance our understanding of consumer decision‐making in the omnichannel customer journey. Recommendations for future research are provided using the Theory, Methodology and Context (TMC) framework. We conclude the paper by discussing implications for academics and practitioners.

“…In recent years Indian tourism service industry market has acquired a significant position with its diversity to reach every potential consumer where the millennials with (Maghnati & Ling, 2013), cosmetic brands (Ajitha & Sivakumar, 2017), perfumes, and apparels (Chihab & Abderrezzak, 2016;Jo, Kim & Choi, 2020;Woodside & Fine, 2019). Some studies have focused on the driving force of tourists and developed the luxury value behavior in hotels (Chen & Peng, 2014), luxury shopping (Correia, Kozak & Kim, 2019) and were conducted in other destinations whereas the studies that could sufficiently identify the Indian especially millennial consumers' value sets that determine their attitude and intentions to travel or purchase a luxury tourism and hospitality services are still few or lacking.…”
Understanding the Indian millennial travelers is vital in providing insights into their behavior while presenting additional challenges to successfully targeting different demographic cohorts for luxury products and services. The present study investigates the factors that define the value perceptions and attitude of Millennials towards luxury service consumption in India. The findings revealed social value as an important factor that influences the attitude of millennial consumers towards purchasing luxury tourism services. Along with providing a theoretical model for behavior, the study provides insights into measuring tourist value preferences by utilizing empirical data within luxury tourism contexts and suggests the tourism and hospitality business practitioners to make innovations in product, service management, and marketing to draw the attention of such a potential segment. Moreover, this study augments the existing knowledge of luxury value and travel patterns of emerging and potential consumers while developing a theoretical model to validate and analyze the luxury service consumption amongst them.
“…The conceptualization of the customer journey during the pre-purchase, purchase and post-purchase stages has been shown based on the theory of market or business strategy (Handarkho, 2020; Lemon and Verhoef, 2016; Grewal and Roggeveen, 2020). Recent empirical studies have focused on touchpoints across multichannel or omnichannel retailing, and large-scale data analysis based on the static models of the customer journey have provided implications for customer segments and customer experience management (de Haan et al , 2018; Chen et al , 2019; Handarkho, 2020; Jo et al , 2020). However, the existing empirical research models rarely consider the transitions between customer segments and the performance forecast by all customers in the customer journey.…”
PurposeThis study presents the applicability of a model-based approach for loyalty program forecasting using smartphone app in the digital strategy of the retail industry.Design/methodology/approachThe authors develop a dynamic model with the cyclical structure of customer segments through customer experience. They use time-series data on the number of members of the loyalty program, “Seven Mile Program” and confirm the validity of the approximate calculation of customer segment share, customer segment sales share and aggregate sales performance. The authors present three medium-term forecast scenarios after the launch of a smartphone payment service linked with the loyalty program.FindingsThe sum of the two customer segment shares for forecasting (the sum of the quasi-excellent and excellent customer ratios) is about 30% in each scenario, consistent with an essential customer loyalty (true loyalty) share obtained in the existing empirical study.Research limitations/implicationsDigital strategy in the retail industry should focus more on estimating and forecasting average amounts of customer segments and the number of aggregated customers through the digitalization on the customer side than on individual customer journeys and responses.Practical implicationsMulti-scenario evaluation through simulation of dynamic models from a systemic view can be used for decision-making in retailing digital strategies.Originality/valueThis study builds a model that integrates the cyclicality of customer segment transition through customer experiences into a loyalty matrix framework, which is a method that has previously been used in the hospitality industry.
