Conclusion: Suggestion include Given that brand products are commoditized and tangible, consumers may be more focused on tactile sensitivity and their effectiveness which comes from the touch of the commodity based on the results of other hypotheses. On the other hand, listening to the experiences of other customers can also influence people's willingness to buy. It is suggested that the goods be arranged so that customers can easily see the goods and easily identify and purchase the self-brand among the organic product brands. It is recommended to enhance the brightness of the store environment and inform consumers of the changes or environmental changes in product mix through advertising and product labeling. It is suggested that mild music be used to soothe the breath shop space. And also applying acoustic insulation to the walls would reduce inappropriate noise outside the store. Restoration and refurbishment of the shop floor is also very effective in increasing customer satisfaction. It is suggested to focus on improving the touch communication of the product, which increases the satisfaction and therefore the desire to purchase more. In-store products can be contracted as a sample for customers to feel confident in purchasing with the touch of a product type. As the company relates more closely to the customer's culture and social commitment, it can influence customer sentiment and profit through customer mouth-to-mouth advertising on products. Self-brand responsibility is also accessible through employee interaction with customers. These include talking to employees and each other as well as with clients and providing guidance on properties, especially new products, to inform the customer.
