by Nichole Gunn VP of Marketing

A customer loyalty program is an excellent way to improve customer retention strategies and increase sales! Here are a few strategies to help you get the most out of your program.

Emphasize brand values

Your B2B customer loyalty program provides you with an opportunity to shine a spotlight on the brand values you’d like your business to embody. Innovation, ecological friendliness, attention to safety, customer care… the possibilities are virtually endless.

Use technology to improve communication and customer experience

Improving customer experience in small ways can make a huge impact when it comes to distinguishing yourself from competitors. Providing your customers with a personalized, state-of-the-art digital platform to engage with your program will go a long way towards boosting customer retention strategies.

Make things easier with loyalty apps

In keeping with using technology to improve customer experience, remember that convenience should be a guiding factor in your digital marketing. An easy-to-use mobile app will go a lot farther in this day and age than a standard website alone.

Utilize training incentives to get participants engaged

Training incentives are often used to motivate salespeople and contractors, but don’t forget that they can appeal to customers too! Use features like trivia, surveys, and quizzes to keep customers engaged and learning.

Take advantage of CRM technology

Connecting your loyalty program with your customer relationship management (CRM) system allows for more streamlined data exchange and accumulation. Having all that data in one place can help you to develop better channel marketing strategies and build connections with customers.

Use incentive travel to reward your VIPs

Incentive trips have proven to be one of the most sure-fire ways to boost ROI and customer loyalty. Treat your most valuable and loyal customers to a personalized incentive travel experience they’ll never forget!
