هدف: این مطالعه، بهدنبال تعیین میزان مشارکت مشتری در ایجاد ارزش برای شرکت در مراحل مختلف چرخه عمر رابطه در نمایندگیهای بیمه پارسیان است. روش: برای دستیابی به هدف پژوهش، مشتریان شرکت بیمه پارسیان در شهر تبریز برای جامعه آماری انتخاب شدند. 386 مشتری با تکمیل پرسشنامه، در پژوهش مشارکت کردند. برای انتخاب نمونه آماری از روش نمونهگیری در دسترس استفاده شد و دادههای پژوهش با استفاده از تحلیل عاملی تأییدی و آنالیز واریانس آزمایش شدند. مطالعه حاضر از لحاظ هدف از نوع تحقیقات کاربردی و از حیث روش از نوع تحقیقات توصیفی است. روایی ابزار اندازهگیری با استفاده از روایی محتوا، روایی همگرا و روایی واگرا به تأیید رسید و پایایی ابزار اندازهگیری نیز از طریق سه روش آلفای کرونباخ، پایایی مرکب و متوسط واریانس تبیینشده، تأیید شد. یافتهها: نتایج پژوهش نشان داد که در مراحل مختلف چرخه عمر رابطه، مشارکت مشتریان در ایجاد ارزش برای شرکت بیمه متفاوت است. در مراحل ابتدایی رابطه، میزان مشارکت مشتریان در ایجاد ارزش، کم است و با توسعه رابطه، مشتریان در ایجاد ارزش برای شرکت بیمه مشارکت بیشتری دارند و در مرحله کاهش رابطه، میزان مشارکت نیز کاهش مییابد. همچنین نتایج نشان میدهد که بیشترین مقدار ارزش طول عمر مشتری، ارزش تأثیرگذاری و دانش مشتری در مرحله حفظ رابطه و بیشترین مقدار ارزش ارجاع مشتری در مرحله توسعه رابطه ایجاد میشود. نتیجه گیری: مشارکت مشتری در ایجاد ارزش برای شرکت حالت پویا دارد و متناسب با سطح رابطه شرکت و مشتری، در مراحل مختلف چرخه عمر رابطه تغییر میکند. | ||

چکیده [English] | ||
Objective Increasing competitive environment among businesses as well as the importance of attracting new customers and maintaining the existing customers have led to reform in customer management approaches. Currently, along with technological and internet-based development and advancement as well as formation of online social media, an appropriate infrastructure for social communication and sharing experiences have been created. Such environmental changes can help evolve customers’ relationship with the companies and pave the way for the new concept of customer engagement which the researchers believe can significantly increase profitability. According to dynamic systematic marketing theories, we can consider life cycle factor for relationships just like products i.e. the relationship between customers and companies change throughout time. Although only a few studies have investigated the effect of customer engagement on customer-firm life cycle and also customers’ value creation in relationship life cycle, academicians and business managers need to conduct empirical studies in order to gain a better understanding of the value of the customer’s engagement in relationship life cycle. Therefore, the present study, we aim to respond to the following questions: Do different customers have the same degree of enthusiasm to engage in creation of values for the companies? What kinds of values are sought by the customers of different relationship life cycle? Methodology This study is applied in nature and descriptive in terms of methodology. The population of the study includes all the customers of different branches of Parsian Insurance Company in Tabriz. The population was considered as infinite and a sample size of 386 customers was selected according to Cochran approach and based on non-incidental availability of the customers. The participants in the present study were selected from among actual insurance users. The data were collected using questionnaires. 520 questionnaires were distributed in order to receive at least 386 completed ones. All 52 branches of Parsian Insurance Company were investigated in order to reduce the ethnicity judgmental error. Cronbach alpha, Composite Reliability (CR), and Average Variance Extracted (AVE) reliability measures were used. Besides, content and construct (convergent and divergent) validity measures were sought. Content validity was measured using experts’ opinions. Finally, variance analysis was used to test the research hypotheses. Findings We can conclude that the highest customer engagement rate occurs within the third stage (maturity or maintenance) of the relationship life cycle where the nature of the relationship between the customer and the firm is more intimate. In the developing and maintaining stages of the relationship, the customers are willing to directly (repurchasing) and indirectly (introducing new customers, influencing others and giving feedback) engage in creating of values to the Insurance Company. Due to the lack of comprehensive knowledge of the firm and limited trust, in the early stages (cognitive stage) of the relationship, customer’s engagement in value creation is lower. Similarly, in the final stages of the relationship (decline in relationship), direct (customers’ life cycle value) and indirect (reference value, influence value and customers’ awareness value) engagement reduces significantly. In general, as the relationship progresses the willingness to engage in such activities increases and reaches the apex in the maturity stage and the engagement reduces as the customers enter the final stage of the relationship. Variance Analysis test shows different customer’s engagement within different stages of the relationship between the customer and the firm. Conclusion The present study has helped improve the customer engagement marketing literature in different ways: a first, we suggest that customer engagement value is dynamic because of the relationship dynamism theory and that such value increases as the relationship progresses. Besides, this study provides an empirical test based on the proposed framework regarding insurance services and shows that the customers’ engagement in value creation differs from one stage to another. Third, the few studies regarding customer engagement are conducted in developed countries and the present study is the first one conducted in a developing country like Iran, so it can help enrich this area of research. | ||
