ABSTRACT

Customer review data on the JD.com (https://www.jd.com) is collected in this paper, and the text mining methods are employed to study the customer perceived value (CPV) of customised products under social commerce, trying to add to the understanding of why certain customisation programmes are successful while others fail. The results show that the CPV of online customisation products in China is a multi-dimensional construct that includes process and results values, and social media can affect the relationships among customers and hosting firms involved in co-creation. Therefore, this study provides theoretical and practical implications for Chinese enterprises to understand and manage online customisation experience.
