Why Incentives Are Key To Customer Loyalty

Customer acquisition programs are a priority for every business. Whether goods or services, without customers, you have no business, and without customer loyalty and retention, your business will lack longevity. It can be difficult to implement loyalty programs to inspire customer loyalty and retention, but it doesn’t have to be. Loyalty programs that reward participants for behaviors and attitudes can build sincere participant advocacy and a sustainable competitive advantage. With the right rewards, technology, and customer incentives, you’ll be well on your way to success. 

Customers thrive on recognition and sharing their experiences. The All Digital Rewards team has found that rewarding those types of customer behaviors delivers a well-rounded, three-dimensional experience. All Digital Rewards understands that customers won’t participate in a program that doesn’t offer sufficient value. According to a recent report from TechnologyAdvice, most US participants (57%) join loyalty programs to receive discounts on products and services. Another reason for customer participation in loyalty programs is to earn benefits, like points that can later be redeemed for rewards incentives such as gift card rewards, physical and virtual visa prepaid cards, and merchandise.

Regardless of how you develop your loyalty incentives rewards program, make sure the loyalty program platform supports the customers’ experience first and foremost. Loyalty programs should be designed to make the customer feel you are reaching out to them personally with rewards that are specifically targeted to them. Choose the right rewards and communicate your intention to continue recognizing and rewarding good participants in the future.

A few key behavior motivators include: 

  • Referral Programs
  • Anniversary Acknowledgements
  • Reward Incentives
  • Social Media Mentions
