How to work with customer loyalty management

Loyalty management means the strategies, tools, and different tactics your business needs to acquire, retain and engage your customers! And with a customer loyalty platform, you can easily find new customers, set up strategies to maintain high engagement, and create campaigns to boost loyalty. But – always make sure that the strategy you choose fits your business and focuses on what your customers want.

How to acquire new members to your loyalty program

There are many ways to attract new members to your program. If you have physical stores, the staff plays a major role in recruiting new members. Set up competitions between stores, and make sure your staff members memorize the program’s benefits. If you’re an online player, you can work with website pop-ups that explain the benefits and allow easy sign-up!

Find new customers on social media

With Facebook Custom Audiences, you can target your communication on Instagram and Facebook. You can also create “lookalike audiences” and reach out to people that most likely will become your customers. This is an awesome way to target ads to people that are similar to your best customers!

What should a retail loyalty program hold?

Now, that’s a common question – without an answer that fits all! The most important thing though is to create or improve your loyalty program based on your customers’ interests and needs. Don’t assume your customers will buy more only by getting discounts – they might buy from you regardless!

Some brands have created loyalty programs where cash rewards don’t exist at all. They focus on other great benefits like:

  • Free returns
  • Digital receipts
  • X amount of free repairs of products
  • Sustainability
  • Early access to new drops
  • Gifts
  • Community access
  • Design possibilities
Use NPS scores to improve the customer experience

The NPS score is a great way to measure how a customer feels about your brand. In Voyado, you can easily drag and drop a module with the NPS score into your emails. The receiver can choose a number between 1 and 10, saying how likely they are to recommend your products to friends and family.

Define and create custom rewards

Use rewards to drive long-term engagement. Your customer can earn reward points based on different criteria in Voyado:

  • Based on purchase amounts calculated on receipts
  • Assigned through an achievement like “write a review and get 100 reward points”
  • Manually added rewards, for example, if your customer support agent wants to hand out a compensation
