Abstract: | The moderating role of duration on the effects of trust and commitment (hereafter as: t-and-c.) on relational outcomes has been examined in the marketing literature in business-to-consumer (B2C) contexts. This study aims at examining its application to business-to-business (B2B) settings by exploring the moderating role of duration in the effects of t-and-c. on satisfaction and intention to continue a relationship. Examined is a particular aspect of B2B marketing from a dyadic perspective: the franchisor-franchisee relationship. Measures were developed using exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses. Data from a survey of 107 franchisors and 102 franchisees operating in Spain, structural equation modelling was used. The results highlight the moderating effect of duration from the franchisees' perspective. |
