In today's challenging economic situation, loyal customers are even more important than before. When prices rise, customers become more conscious of what they consume, which can make it more difficult to attract new customers. It is therefore increasingly important to build strong relationships with existing customers. A loyalty program can be very useful when building this relationship, if used strategically.
A loyalty program is more than just the software needed to offer membership benefits to customers. The software is necessary, but it is important to use the software in accordance with your company's brand and goals. Which member benefits are to be offered is a strategic decision linked to what you want to achieve with the loyalty program. A loyalty program does not create customer loyalty if it is not used. It must be actively used and developed to create added value for customers and the company. It is therefore important to develop a strategy for the loyalty program in order to achieve success, and to analyze the results afterwards.
A strategy consists of goals and how to achieve them. It is therefore a plan for how to achieve results. Companies often have overall goals and strategies for their operations. Loyalty programs should not be an exception. In order to achieve success, it is important to know what you want to get out of the loyalty program and how to achieve this.
To help your company maximize the value of the loyalty program, we have developed an 8-step loyalty strategy. These steps should help you think holistically when creating your loyalty program.

Compare results to goals and gauge how successful the loyalty program has been.
By spending time designing the program and deciding which membership benefits to offer, you will increase the likelihood of meeting your customers' needs, and thus build loyalty among existing customers.
A loyalty program has the greatest probability of success when it is seen strategically in the context of the rest of the company. It is therefore important to structure the program so that it is adapted to your customers' needs in order to build loyalty. This can be crucial to retaining customers, especially in challenging economic times.
