从顾客直接投诉对企业的重要性,企业对顾客直接投诉反应的分类与描述,企业处理投诉对顾客的影响,以及投诉处理后顾客的反应几个方面对相关研究文献进行了回顾。其中,企业处理顾客的直接投诉包括及时性、简易性、补偿、道歉、解释和关注6个维度。此前的研究发现,这些维度对企业处理顾客直接投诉的效果有显著的影响。在文献回顾的基础上,建立了一个企业对顾客直接投诉的反应及影响模型,并找到了一些研究不足,提出了今后的研究方向。
A firm response to the customer direct complaints and its effect are an important topic in the research of customer complaint. The literature was reviewed from three aspects : the importance of customer complaint to firms, the classification and description of firm responses to customer complaints and the impact of firm responses on the customer post-complaint reactions. The handling the customer direct complaints consists of six dimensions: timeliness, facilitation, compensation, apology, explanation and attentiveness. The previous research work observed that all of the six dimensions have significant impact on the effect of complaint handle. On the basis of the previous works, a model of firm response to customer direct complaints and its influences are proposed by the authors. Further studies of this field are also pointed.
