Abstract

The strategic value evaluation of physical channels is the main purpose of this paper. To interpret this value, we refine finance, location and competition dimensions. A total of 166 social high-star channels are selected as empirical samples. Practice shows that all second-layer indicators can be quantified by information system or artificial collection. The weight of three first-layer indicators can be defined by correlation analysis. The value comprehensive ranking of the channels is clear based on the first-layer and second-layer indicators. In the sample group in this study, the weight of location value is higher. The results on channels´ strategic value research may provide further insights on business value, service value and other related fields.
