How To Drive Customer Behavior Better Than Anyone Else
It is difficult to implement loyalty programs to inspire customer loyalty and retention. Loyalty programs that reward participants (customers, end users, members, consumers, or respondents) for behaviors and attitudes can build deep participant advocacy and a sustainable competitive advantage. Today’s consumers need to feel empowered; the customer has to know what is in it for them, not just for the company, and we (the company) drive that empowerment to advocacy. People who have tried to define loyalty usually approach it from one of two different directions- attitudinal and behavioral. Attitudinal loyalty implies that loyalty is a state of mind. This means that a participant is “loyal” to a brand or an organization if they have a positive, preferential attitude toward it. In terms of attitudes, increasing a participant’s loyalty is virtually equivalent to increasing the participant’s preference toward your brand. It is closely tied to satisfaction, and any organization wanting to increase loyalty should concentrate on improving its product, its image, or other elements of the customers’ experience. On the other hand, the behavioral definition of loyalty relies on a customer’s actual actions, regardless of the attitudes or preferences underlying that specific behavior. Loyalty is concerned with the “re-purchase” activity, […]

Now, all of this is wonderful information. But, where do you bring this into play? How does your brand build customer loyalty with rewards and recognition? Read on for the 6 types of successful rewards and recognition using prepaid debit cards. Firstly, let’s discuss the successful use of prepaid cards in brand holiday buying. Oftentimes, you can’t walk into a store without them stating, “Sign up for our card today and save 40% on your purchase!” Although this tactic is used across the board, it typically works. People are willing to come into the store and purchase more for their money-especially if they can save on their year-end gifts. Next, there are multiple options for establishing rebate programs or even refunds options for coupons or membership qualities from that branded prepaid debit […]
The Truth About Initiating a Consumer Incentive Program
Roughly 12 million Americans used a prepaid debit card at least once a month and collectively loaded $65 billion to them. Prepaid cards can be an awesome tool for many different people. They are safer than cash and remove the threat of overdraft fees and bounced checks.

However, others struggle to get their name into the business network. Here we will discuss 6 factors that could kill your next customer acquisition campaign. Walking into a campaign with no strategy is a good start to creating a disaster for yourself. Planning goals and a strategy of how to reach those goals will set your plan in action. This will give you a timeline for you to measure your progress. Any strategy is better than no strategy-so plan out what you want to accomplish and how you think you will get to that point.

Targeting and strategy planning can take you […]

How to Earn Customers Back After a Poor Experience
Poor customer experiences (CX) are detrimental to a company’s reputation and sales. There is hope thanks to a new customer experience survey from the SDL. This study consisted of a survey of 2,784 consumers across nine countries and three generations, asking them about their most major CX failure in the last 10 years. In the survey, 82% of customers who experienced a “worst CX” said they are interested in fixing the problem. Initial reasons for switching companies were a loss of trust in the company (44%), a poor quality of customer service (72%), and customer service representatives’ lack of knowledge (36%). This new research shows that 8 out of 10 respondents who switched stated that their previous service provider could have done something that would have kept them as a customer. After a bad CX, 64% of customers will stop recommending the organization, start looking for an alternative, or actively disparage the company via word of mouth/social media. This truly brings into play, “The good is expected but, the bad will go viral.” The study offered tips to regain the loyalty of those lost customers. The participants ranked the following actions in order of importance to the customer after a […]
