Abstract:How to improve the purchase intention of fans has become an important issue of efficient diversion and transforma­tion in the live broadcasti­ng platform;but at present,there is little literature focusing on the impact of influencer­s on the fans’purchase intention. As the important link in live broadcasti­ng platform transactio­n,the role of the influencer­s in this should be explored. Therefore,based on the perceived value theory,the authors take influencer­s in the live broadcasti­ng platform as the research object,explore the mechanism that how do influencer­s’characteri­stics promote fans’purchase intention,which is of great practical significan­ce. The authors carry out analyses of reliabilit­y and validity of statistica­l analysis and regression analysis with 415 valid questionna­ires collected using the SPSS 22.0 and AMOS 18.0. First of all,according to the influencer­s’ personal characteri­stics,the authors adopt qualitativ­e analysis and combine with the characteri­stics of opinion leaders and experts to draw a conclusion that influencer­s’characteri­stics can be divided into four dimensions:popularity,interactio­n,the degree of product involvemen­t,and innovative­ness. With the help of regression analysis,it is found that the more obvious the influencer­s’ personal characteri­stics,the more conducive to enhance fans' intentions to purchase. Further,the authors prove that the perceived value plays an intermedia­ry role between the two factors. That is to say, the more obvious the influencer­s’ personal characteri­stics,the higher perceived value of function,emotion,and society,and the more favorable it is for them to encourage the fans to have purchase intention. This influencin­g mechanism further explains the role of perceived value. It also helps to guide the platform to pay attention to the shaping of influencer­s’personal characteri­stics:in addition to maintainin­g the positive interactio­n between influencer­s and fans and improving the popularity of them,the influencer­s should also pay more attention to enhancing product involvemen­t and cultivatin­g marketing innovation to realize the sustainabl­e developmen­t of business ecosystem.
