Lay the groundwork by stressing your loyalty program’s capability to build long-term relationships between your brand and your customers. As you begin the conversation, focus on the critical loyalty success metrics for your business:
Consider how the goals you set against these metrics will help your business build emotional loyalty. Set expectations across the organization that the loyalty program will improve both quantitative and qualitative key performance indicators.
Quantitative KPIs include:
- Increased sales
- Reduced churn
- Increased cart sizes
- Increased repeat sales
- Increased engagement
Qualitative KPIs include:
- Increased satisfaction
- Stronger brand awareness
- Competitive edge
Keep in mind that successful loyalty programs use simple logic, are easy to join, incentivize engagement, provide a variety of relevant rewards, and delight loyalty members.
