1 The perceived influence of the elements of internal marketing on the brand image of staffing agencies in South Africa. CANDICE NATALIE BURIN Dissertation Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree MCom in Marketing Management in the Faculty of Management at the University of Johannesburg JOHANNESBURG Supervisor: Dr HB Klopper May Co-supervisor: Prof M Roberts-Lombard
2 ABSTRACT Staffing agencies are known to operate in a highly competitive industry, have high employee turnover and generally have brand images that are not very prominent in the South African marketplace. Staffing agencies are highly under-researched considering the various obstacles they face. When clients choose to purchase a service product they are purchasing a bundle of intangible benefits based on the performance of people and the activities of employees to be specific. As a result, it becomes important to attract, retain and motivate the best employees in order to deliver the best service. Exceeding customer expectations, through providing exceptional service quality, results in a positive brand image of the organisation which customers are likely to share with others. This study follows a descriptive research design. Literature concerning internal marketing and brand image will be provided. The study makes use of two samples, a client and employee sample from the Kelly Group, a leading staffing group. Two questionnaires were designed based on the theoretical literature provided within the study and disseminated to the two samples. The questionnaires made use of a set of statements relating to the theory and a 5-point Likert scale that allowed respondents to select from five options ranging between strongly agree to strongly disagree. Various statistical analysis procedures were used to accomplish the objectives of the study including factor analysis, multiple and multivariate regression techniques. The primary objective of the study is to determine the influence of service quality on the perceived relationship between internal marketing and the brand image of the South African staffing brands and staffing subsidiaries of the Kelly Group. The study will further seek to determine how the different elements of internal marketing influence the brand image of employees and clients of selected staffing agencies in South Africa. The elements of internal marketing mix, namely product, price, promotion, distribution, people, processes and physical evidence will be separately observed in terms of their influence on the brand image dimensions, namely brand consistency, brand trust, brand satisfaction and brand commitment. The influence of the dimensions of service quality, namely reliability, responsiveness, assurance and empathy on the dimensions of brand image and the influence of service quality on ii
3 the elements of internal marketing will be explored in order to determine service quality s influence on the relationship between internal marketing and brand image. A framework to manage internal marketing, service quality and brand image in an integrated manner was determined. The conclusion and findings of the study were found to support the objectives of the study and the results of the statistical analysis were found to accept the hypotheses of the study. Various recommendations for staffing agencies were given based on the findings of the statistical analysis. These recommendations included the need for staffing agencies to monitor service quality gaps and that the internal product was highly influential to service quality and therefore staffing agencies need to provide a competitive internal product to employees. Internal distribution was found to be highly influential towards the responsiveness, assurance and empathy of a service and therefore staffing agencies need to focus on creating higher levels of internal service quality and teamwork within their organisations. Physical evidence and tangibles were found to be influential towards assurance and empathy of service quality and the importance of a modern open-plan staffing environment and a professional employee dress code were identified. Internal promotion was found to be influential to the responsiveness of a staffing agency s service and therefore the need to segment employees to determine how much information and how frequently information needs to be communicated to each group of employees was mentioned. The importance of staffing agency s considering the use of new media such as social networking websites, intranets and wikis was identified as most staffing agency employees work at the client s premises. Brand consistency was found to be critical in obtaining brand trust, satisfaction and ultimately commitment and that brand consistency is highly influenced by the service quality offered by a staffing agency. Staffing agencies could achieve consistency through attracting, hiring and training the correct type of employees to be consistent with the organisation s values. The empathy of the service provided by staffing agencies was considered highly important to all brand image dimensions of brand consistency, brand trust, brand satisfaction and brand commitment therefore staffing agencies need to have employees that show a sincere concern for their clients. Clients further perceived empathy as highly influential towards brand satisfaction, iii
4 which is important in order to gain brand commitment which ultimately leads to improved economic performance of the staffing agency. Staffing agency s need to care about their employees and their professional development in order for employees to care about the staffing agency s clients. Clients also perceived that brand trust and brand commitment were highly influenced by the responsiveness of the service. It was identified that staffing agencies need to attract, satisfy and communicate with their employees to deliver on client expectations. Assurance was the most influential service quality dimension influencing brand image but due to it having a kurtosis value over 1, this recommendation should be considered within caution. Staffing agencies need to consider an internal marketing approach as a means of curbing employee churn which will lead to higher levels of assurance. Staffing agencies need to ensure there is continuous knowledge renewal amongst employees. In order to create enthusiastic employee behaviour staffing agency managers need to recognise the supremacy of training as a marketing instrument. Middle managers should be used as trainers and motivators who build their employees capabilities and confidence. Staffing agencies should consider the internal price their employees need to pay to work for the organisation and avoid psychological contract violation. Staffing agencies could offer with flexible working options for their employees to increase their satisfaction. In order for employees to know what to do, how to do it and how to do it on a consistent basis requires the staffing agency to ensure that the internal marketing mix elements of internal processes and internal promotion are used effectively. The management of a staffing agencies need to provide basic scripted processes and technological processes to increase employee empowerment and service quality and reduce costs. Staffing agencies need to consider the importance of internal marketing in attracting and maintaining talented and knowledgeable employees. Internal marketing influences the superiority and consistency of the service quality provided by employees and experienced by clients and ultimately leads to the staffing agency having a stronger brand image, which ensures future economic performance and the sustainability of the staffing brand over the long-term. iv
