Edge out the competition
While the primary objective of a loyalty program is to retain existing customers, don’t underestimate it’s influence when prospects compare your business to your competitors. Today, it’s very rare for purchasing decisions to come solely down to price when the experience is much more important. A loyalty program appeals to customer emotions and will reward them for something that may go unnoticed with other companies.
Build relationships
As we touched on previously, building an emotional connection through a personalised service can be key to encouraging loyalty. A strong relationship with customers will not only encourage repeat purchase again and again, but will also likely result in referrals and promotion on their part to family and friends – completely free to you!
Adapt to the market
Having a better understanding of your customers and their purchasing trends will give you a more accurate picture of the current market. Determine which items are repurchased on a regular basis and those that remain sat on your shelves so that you can make changes to your product line and overall marketing strategy. Think price reductions and promotions to start.
