Dublin, Oct. 29, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Improving MNOs' Approach to Loyalty" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
This report examines how new programs have been implemented in the MNO community to keep the brand top-of-mind and wallet and explores how program costs, loyalty and upselling have been addressed.
Traditional loyalty programs and points gathering have fallen in popularity in recent years with lengthy collection periods, cumbersome and restrictive collection and redemption undermining the perceived benefits of membership. Many businesses, including MNOs, are switching to rewards-based programs, providing immediate member benefits and personalised offers. Affiliate partner exclusivity, a high degree of personalisation and benefits that are available from day one can now determine a rewards program's success.
Inspirations
- Points-based loyalty schemes less popular with consumers
- MNOs are replacing points with a benefits-based approach
- Loyalty approach shifting to brand and being top-of-mind
Issues
- Status must be more flexibly determined and acknowledged
- Customers need immediate recognition and rewards
- Costs of traditional programs may be prohibitive in future
Implications
- Earlier movers have the widest range of options available
- Urgent need to review current loyalty approach
- Loyalty can move from being a cost to providing revenue
