Abstract

This study explored and analyzed the impact of different internet word-of-mouth (IWOM) to the consumer purchase intention and then proposed several suggestions to the catering industry. This study first divides the IWON into three types: the short video IWON, the comment IWON, and the promotion advertorial IWON. Several assumptions regarding the IWON are proposed and then a hypothesis research model is inferred based on the proposed assumptions. This study adopts the questionnaire method to verify the hypothesis research model. A total of 255 valid questionnaires were collected. Reliability and validity test was conducted after data preprocessing. Cronbach alpha of the variables are between 0.808 and 0.909, validity test KMO of the variables are between 0.704 and 0.875, indicating that the variables are valid and reliable. This study then employed the IBM SPSS 23.0 and AMOS 24.0 to test the hypothesis research model and the test results removed three assumptions from the hypothesis research model. This study then proposed the revised research model for evaluating the IWOM marketing strategies for the catering industry.
