Conclusion

the emotions of its audience and how does this finally influence
the customers’ future behavior?
• Novelty of the environment (general) + the quality of aperitivo
service + other special services + the movie  pleasure and
dominance  Behavior
• Fullness and Arousal is irrelevant
Is there any difference on such influences among different
customer groups?
• Ideal target customer  highly educated, rich female above
30 years old, who cares about the movie and enjoys an
exclusive experiences
• Movie quality  dominance feeling of target customer
Managerial implications
Issues Suggestions

improvement
• Reach the right target
customers
– Lack of communication
– Booking problem
• movie portfolio
• customer feedbacks/surveys
• the first group have aperitivo
with the second group together
• reservation service
• Differentiate the offer
• Focus only on the high class
• Different communication for
different focuses
• Negotiation with SIAE
