Description

Having members that are active and engaging with the brand on an ongoing basis drives long-term loyalty. By designing rewards and incentives that goes beyond purchases and includes events, interactions and participation you can ensure your members stays connected with your brand.

Examples of strategic benefits:

• Customer Repeat Purchases: Having members being more connected, earning more points and participating in various activities drives repeat purchases
• Brand Ambassadors: Some of these members that become very active and are participating in special events, may become brand ambassadors, promoting your brand.

It is critical that the right incentives for the right activity and participation is available (that goes beyond purchases) and Memberson provides a platform that enables a broad range of options and the right experience and knowledge to implement what is right for you.

For Memberson clients, best practices comes with ready implementation steps to ensure the best outcome for the business.‍

‍

Concept

To ensure members maintain their point-earning momentum in between purchases and stay connected with the brand by offering interactive additional point earning options

‍

Execution

1. Configure interactions in CRM
2. Set up point earning rules for each interaction
   • Event Participation – Tracked through QR code scanning (Check in)
   • Mobile App Usage
   • Product review, leave a comment
   • Opt-in for Marketing Communication
3. Trigger Interaction request
4. Run report and compare purchases from members that stay connected vs members that do not stay connected

‍

KPI

• Cost of membership reward points
• Integration Cost
• Increase in brand loyalty – > 10% repeat purchase

‍

Detailed Execution in Memberson Loyalty CRM Platform

This is a typical implementation process but there are many various configuration options available depending on interactions used and the incentive for each interactions.

‍

#1 Configure interactions in CRM

The first step is to set up the channel where additional interactions may come in from (if not already set up). You will go to the Admin => Channels and then add a channel (if not already available and set up). In the below set up channels for Mobile App has been set up.

Do note that an integration (API call) need to be available between the channel and CRM for the interaction to be registered.

In this particular example we will assume that we want to give 25 points when the members open MyAccount page on the Mobile App and 100 points when they check in to an event. Memberson provides these two channels as modules within the core platform. Below is the two interactions that has been set up and will be used CHECKINOUT channel with interaction Check-in and ANDROID channel (we have an identical for IPHONE but will use ANDRIOD for illustration) with interaction Access My Account (which is the My Account page).

‍

#2 Set up point earning rules for each interaction

For opening up My Account page on the Mobile App we use the Channel and Interaction in Rule Builder UI and set up a rule with the following:

• Configure a restriction that means that a member can only receive points once a day for this action
• Include both iPhone and Android specifying this specific interaction (opening My Account page)
• Set up that the reward given will be fixed points (25 points) that expires within 1 month

The below is three screenshots with regard to the rule builder restrictions, criteria and action (reward in this case):

‍

We will then set up a rule in similar fashion for Check In with the following set up:

• Configure a restriction that means that a member can only receive points once a day for this action
• Include CheckIn Channel and specify check in interaction
• Set up that the reward given will be fixed points (100 points) that expires within 1 month

Once the two rules have been configured they are visible in the rule builder as per below:

‍

#3 Trigger Interaction request

When the member goes to the my account page in the Mobile App or does a checkIn the interaction will be automatically triggered and the rule executed accordingly which will give points to the members.

Below is a screenshot of those two actions that will create an interaction for each two of these events and give out the points to the users:

‍

After this the person can use the points to redeem rewards or receive discounts and similar.

‍

#4 Compare purchases between point earning members and non-point earning members

For example you can now check the members that have done a minimum of X interactions and compare that to person that did not receive any points from interactions to see the difference in purchases made by these type of members. You can also compare the same set of members from previous month that did less than X interactions and see if the purchases has increased when they have more interactions with your brand. You can extend the criteria to 6 months if your members does not make frequent purchases normally (or whatever time difference that you decide). You can use Engage to extract the set of members that falls into each category based on your criteria (at least X interaction points earned for a given period) and compare that to the purchases made between these two set of members via the Member Sales Report (most flexible way is to download this in excel and you can use vlookup on the customer number) between the two sets.

Engage Criteria to get out customer numbers with three or more interactions in a month:

‍

‍

‍Description

Collaborating with partners brings benefits to you, your members and the partners. Your members can redeem partner events, products and rewards to enjoy additional experience while you lower the cost of your loyalty program.

Examples of benefits:

• Customer Experiences: Bring a new set of experiences and rewards to your members with the right partner that supplements your offering
• Lower Point Cost / Liability: Typically you will give your partner a new way to attract customers while you can lower your point cost / liability since members are redeeming rewards from the partner.

It is important that both the business application, to ensure the right partner is used with the right rewards and products, and the technical implementation, for seamless execution via a standard approach that can be configured for multiple partners in your product, is done right. Memberson can help you navigate both the business application and technical implementation of partner collaboration via promo codes.

‍

Concept

Let your customers redeem partner events, products and rewards via your loyalty mobile app or e-commerce site that can be used in your partners stores, sites or mobile app.

‍

Execution Overview

1. Receive Third Party One Time Codes
2. Upload the Promo Codes as outbound OTC in CRM
3. Set up Voucher with External Ref Code (OTC List) linked to Outbound OTC in CRM
4. When the voucher is redeemed / given show promo on voucher in Mobile App
5. Member enters Promo Code in partner sites / mobile app to claim event, product or rebate

‍

KPI

• Partner rewards are typically free since it drives new customer to their business
• Reduction in point liability and added benefits / experience to your members

‍

Detailed Execution in Memberson Loyalty CRM Platform

This is a typical implementation process but there are many various configuration options available depending on how the promo codes are shared with the users and how they are suppose to use them.

#1 Receive Third Party OTC

The Marketing / CRM department negotiate with a partner and come to an agreement that they will recieve a set of OTC that they can share with their members.

Typically the third party will send an encrypted file to the marketing / CRM department with a set of one-time codes that can be used on their platform. This typically comes in an excel format as below:

‍

‍

#2 Upload the Promo Codes as outbound OTC in CRM

• Go to One-Time Code in Admin and select the tab OUTBOUND CODES and press Upload Outbound OTC (top right corner)

‍

Define the Master Code and List Code that you want to use and then select the List with one time codes to be uploaded and press OK. You can see from the list how many of the one time codes has been used once they are started to be redeemed.

NOTE: There are different options in giving the member the partner promo code, such as:

1. A certain activity by the member that triggers vouchers via Reaktor rule

2. Use segmentation in Engage and issue out voucher via Engage

3. Member redeeming a voucher to receive the partner promo code.

For the next 2 steps we will assume that the member is redeeming a voucher via the Mobile App to access the partner promo code.

‍

#3 - Set up the Voucher to connect to third party codes (admin => Vouchers)

• Fill in the Sub Type = Partner (third party voucher) and link the external outbound codes via the field “External Ref Code (OTC List)” by selecting the correct Master Code that you had defined
• Ensure that the Stock is that same amount of OTC that you have uploaded (in this example 6)

• Under Custom Fields => View Setting ensure the field “Show Reference Number” is defined as “Yes”. This will ensure that the voucher once redeemed in the Mobile App displays the reference number that contains the OTC for the user to use. Also it is recommended to set the Voucher Category to Partner (or Event).
• Note: in the How to Use section ensure that it is clear how the voucher should be utilized at the third party site. And also if there is a particular redemption restrictions set that appropriately in the “Redemption Restrictions” sections.

‍

#4 - User redeems the Voucher in the Mobile App, Access the Partner Promo Code and Uses at Partner Site

The member can view the voucher and take the partner promo code and use the partner promo code online or instore depending on each partner and what the promotions was for, example below.

‍

Description

Using promo codes, points and vouchers you can create instore acquisition campaigns with a competition element that can generate great results.

Examples of benefits:

• High Instore Acquisition Rate: Ensures that most people visiting your stores becomes members of your program and you can communicate and engage with these new members
• Low Customer Acquisition Costs: Does not require any additional external marketing, but will ensure you have a high percentage conversion of customers to members in your store.

It is important you find the right balance in creating a competitive environment and establishing interesting instore rewards to improve instore acquisition success rate. Memberson can help you to establish the right program and ensure execution is seamless.

‍

Concept

Create a promo code that gives points or vouchers to the person signing up via the tablet in store or QR codes. Track performance and create competition between stores with incentives to drive member acquisition

‍

Execution Overview

1. Create a promo code in CRM (based on location) [Optional]
2. Create QR codes with store location linked to sign-up form [If not Tablet used]
3. Set up and communicate acquisition campaign to store staff with incentives
4. Run campaign
5. Use member report to track sign up by location and determine winner

‍

KPI

• Cost of promo code rebates and staff incentives
• Increase in member acquisitions from specific locations > 25%

‍

Detailed Execution in Memberson Loyalty CRM Platform

Creation of promo codes are optional, and they could be created both per location or generic without any location restrictions. However, to provide additional incentive for a person to signup during a membership acquisition campaign it may be beneficial to create this. If you have the tablet sign-up application step 2 is not needed (creating a QR code).

‍

#1 Create Sign Up Promo Code

Create a sign up promo code for 5 locations that gives a $5 voucher that can be used for the next purchase.

‍

Set up the rule engine to trigger the voucher based on the sign up promo code that is used when the member signs up.

‍

#2 Create a QR code and print out and place in stores (if no tablet)

For each store go to a QR code generator and ensure that the right location code is given in the http link. You can use https://www.qr-code-generator.com/ or similar websites. Created the below QR code based with a http link.

‍

You can also include the promo code directly into the QR code as well, or alternatively, if you have multiple promo codes per store or certain customers will sign up without promo codes you may want the customer to enter it manually.

‍

#3 New customer scans the QR code and enter their details (with or without promo code)

Once the form has been filled in and submitted the member is created within CRM. If a sign-up promo code was used, then there will a sign-up reward ($5 voucher given to the user).

‍

#4 Use member report to track sign up by location

In order to see how well each store is doing the member list csv report can be used to check on how many members that are signing up for each location and what date. Here you can also see the actual spending of these members and can give further incentives based on the spending.

It is recommended to have KPIs both for how many members that signed up and for how much they are spending the first 2 weeks after signing up.

‍

Description

Use social media tools and forms to drive member acquisition in a completely seamless manner for the customer within the social media itself.

Examples of benefits:

• Member acquisition: Attract a new set of members directly in your social media channels making it seamless for the customer to sign up within the social media channel
• Drive member sales: With the right and targeted rewards specifically by social media channel you can drive additional sales.

The key to a successful strategy lies in making it seamless and part of your social media strategy by combing the social media marketing with your loyalty program.  Memberson provides the knowledge and functionality to ensure successful a outcome.

‍

Concept

Description

Create a unique experience and reward by using Grab Vouchers with location strategy to drive transactions and participation for specific stores.

Examples of benefits:

• Customer experiences: A unique reward to improve the customer experience and interest in visiting a store
• Increase member transactions: Drives additional member transactions by a unique way of attracting instore traffic and encourage spending to benefit from more convenient transport

The design of the loyalty best practice is important to ensure it targets the right audience and that supplemental rewards are available for other members to maximize the success. Memberson can help you navigate both the business application and technical implementation.

‍

Concept

Let your VIP customers redeem location based GrabGifts (fixed value digital gift cards for Grab rides) that can be redeemed via the Grab app. Set value, validity (up to 6 months) and stipulate usage settings with time or location controls to ensure they use the grab ride to go to or leave your store!

‍

Execution Overview

1. Buy Promo GrabGifts (Flexible Grab digital gift vouchers for any corporate occasion | Grab SG )
2. Upload the Gift Card Links as outbound OTC in CRM
3. Set up Voucher with External Ref Code (OTC List) linked to Outbound OTC in CRM, complimentary or with a point cost (you decide based on your use case)
4. When the voucher is redeemed / given send email via reaktor rules to user to redeem
5. Member click on link to retrieve the GrabGifts enters Promo Code and select Use now to apply

‍

KPI

• Cost of GrabGifts (but offset against points liability if redeemed via points)
• Increase in transactions for specific location where promo runs -> 5%

‍

Detailed Execution in Memberson Loyalty CRM Platform

There are various options available but we will proceed to buy some grab gifts and then set up a rule that will issue out the GrabGifts to anyone that have bought for more than SGD200 in one transaction in one particular store. The assumption is that there is a particular event going on in a store for one day and you will sponsor their ride home and are among the first 50 people that make a large purchase.

‍

#1 Buy Promo GrabGifts ‍

If you want to purchase a large number of grab gifts you can enquire at https://www.grab.com/sg/business/gifts/. However, for this purpose we will purchase a smaller amount and this can be done directly at https://gifts.grab.com/sg/. Please see below screenshots for when purchasing grab gift vouchers.

‍

It is important that you click in the “I’ll Send the Gifts Myself” and then when you have made the purchase you click on the download the gift links. You will then receive a CSV file with the following:

‍

#2 Upload the Gift Card Links as outbound OTC in CRM

Once you have received the gift link you will now proceed to upload it into the OTC outbound code. You will create a Master Code (if this is the first time you have Grab Gifts) and then a List Code which is for this specific list of OTC and then you will convert the CSV file you got from Grab to a text file (only including the first column.

‍

Once you have uploaded the Grab Gifts you will be able to see them as an Outbound OTC in the list:

‍

#3 Set up Voucher with External Ref Code (OTC List) linked to Outbound OTC in CRM

Once the OTC is available in the system you now create a voucher that once it is issued out will get the OTC (Grab Gift Link) automatically assigned from the OTC list. A few things to remember when setting up the voucher:

• Ensure that the validity matches the one that Grab sent. If the person is not using the voucher for some reason you want it to expire at the same time as the Grab Gift link is no longer valid.
• The field “External Ref Code (OTS List) must link to the Master Code that you used so the right OTC codes gets associated to the right voucher
• You also want to set the stock balance to the same quantity as the OTC codes. Do note that once the OTC codes runs out you will then no longer be able to issue out vouchers. You can top up the actual number of OTC by uploading a new list and add the quantity into the stock balance of the voucher.

‍

#4a. The Grab gift voucher is redeemed / given to the member

The first part is optional since you could also let the instore staff issue out the voucher as part of the operations. However, in this example we are setting up a rule that:

• Person need to spend SGD200 or more in one transaction
• The spend must happen during the event in the Store 1 location during the 17:00-23:00 on Wednesday and Thursday
• Only 50 vouchers will be issued out (should align to the number of OTC that is available)
• The Grab Gift voucher have fixed expiry date that aligns to the expiry of the grab gift link in the OTC

Please see below a rule that has been configured as per above:

Do note that the Grab Gift Voucher in CRM is at this stage only used for tracking purposes and ensuring that the OTC has been issued to the person. It does not serve any other purpose.

‍

#4b. Once the Grab Gift Voucher is issued an email is sent via Reaktor rules to user with Grab Gift

The next step is to set up a rule that will trigger an EDM based on the voucher that has been issued / redeemed. You will also need to create an EDM template for this.

Below is a simple EDM template that has been set up for this purpose:

Thereafter you will set up a rule that triggers this EDM to the user when the voucher has been issued / redeemed which automatically will populate the OTC field in the EDM with the accurate grab gift link.

With the above the configuration is completed.

‍

#5. Member click on link to retrieve the GrabGifts enters Promo Code and select Use now to apply

From a member perspective they will receive the EDM, tap on the link from their mobile device and it will automatically open up the Grab App where they can now proceed to use the Grab Gift Voucher. Please see below:

Description

Drive purchases via the right point balance thresholds with the right benefits and engagement  

Examples of benefits:

• Improve Loyalty: Ensuring active engagement and using the rewards earned via the program
• Increase member transactions: Drives additional member transactions by ensuring the members take advantage of real benefit when available

The design of the loyalty best practice is important to ensure it has the right thresholds and the right benefit and type of engagement to maximize the success. Memberson can help you navigate both the business application and technical implementation.

‍

Concept

Define certain point balance thresholds where attractive benefits can be achieved and encourage members that are close to achieving this to earn a few more points to take advantage of the next set of benefits and rewards. The reward and/or benefit has to be substantial to ensure success.

‍

Execution Overview

1. Define appropriate point balance thresholds with valuable benefits via reports
2. Setup notification that will automatically inform a user when they are about to reach a certain threshold point balance, or when they have just reached a threshold
3. Track purchases from participants
4. Consider to run additional campaigns from time to time to target these members

‍

KPI

• Cost of benefit
• Increase in spending / purchases > 5%

‍

Detailed Execution in Memberson Loyalty CRM Platform

This is a typical implementation process but there are various configuration options available depending on the point structure, rewards and communication strategy.

‍

#1 Define the point balance thresholds

For this scenario we will assume that vouchers are used for redemption of points. The first aspect is to ensure that there are more attractive vouchers to redeem for larger point balances. For example, you will get $10 off voucher if you have 100 points but if you have 300 points you can redeem a $50 voucher. This encourages members to spend more to reach the 300 points threshold that will allow them to redeem the voucher and then make additional purchases. You can also restrict the usage for the $50 voucher that it can only be used up to 50% of the sales price which encourages members to spend at least $100 in the additional purchase once they have received the voucher. There are many various combinations available, and the exact structure will depend on your brand, merchandise and member strategy.

For the scenario, as highlighted above, we will set up a threshold to capture everyone with a point balance between 250-299 to send out notifications to members (can either be email, SMS, push, WhatsApp or any other communication channel that you have enabled – or several of them) to encourage them to reach at least 300 points.

‍

#2 Set up a notification

We can set up real-time rules that will trigger a notification immediately someone reaches the 250-299 points balance. However, this would mean that someone which has just made a purchase will immediately afterwards receive a message to make another purchase. This may not be very effective way to drive the right behaviour and may also annoy certain members. Instead, we will set up a campaign that triggers a SMS (we could have use other means of communication but for the purpose of this campaign we will use SMS) for all members that have between 250-299 points, where the campaign message has not been sent for the last 6 months and where no purchase was made in the last one month. We have the option of setting this up as a recurring campaign to trigger this every month, but since we do not know how successful this will be we will set it up as a normal campaign so we can refine our approach after we have tried this out, with different settings for who should be included in the campaign.

Below is one way to set up the target list in Engage. Do note that we have set up the target to include all members that have between 250-299 points and then we have introduced two exclusions in the targeting:

#1 Exclusion is to remove everyone that made a purchase in the last month

#2 Exclusion is to remove everyone that received this engagement in the last 6 months. Do note since this is the first time we run the engagement this is not meaningful for the first engagement.

‍

The flexibility of the search patterns and targeting options enables us to define the target criteria in many different ways.

The next step is to design the SMS that will be sent when we run the campaign. Since we have selected a SMS for this it will be a fairly simple text message to remind the member to spend to take advantage of the voucher available for them. You can play around with the text copy to see what works best for you:

‍

We will then schedule to send this at the appropriate time. For example, every month on the first Wednesday at 11am.

The below is an example of the SMS that is sent out based on the set up.

‍

#3 Track Spending Purchases

In order to see how successful this set up is we will check how many people that received the message and made a purchase within 2 weeks of receiving the message. This can be done directly within the Campaign that was set up to send out the engagement under the Statistics Tab:

For example you can see each participant that the message was sent out to and if they made a purchase and when (since the start of the campaign. You can then decide if you want to look at different time periods with regards to purchases based on the transaction time. You have a choice of drag and drop different data fields that you want to view in the UI and you can also decide to download it to excel for additional data manipulation and analysis.

‍

#4 Consider to run additional campaigns from time to time to target these members

There are many different combinations and strategies available around this, what rewards you define, what the point thresholds are, who the participants are and what type of communication channel and message that you use. The companies that are most successful have different strategies defined and will on a regular basis (every 12 month) review the outcome and further optimize the strategy.

‍

Description

You can work with influencers and promoters that drive additional members and transactions to your loyalty program. By having the right approach and tools you can track the results of each influencer and give rewards and incentives to both the member and influencer.

Examples of benefits:

• Member Acquisition: Bring in new members that you may not have reached through your standard channels
• Increase Transactions: Drive additional transactions by having the right rewards set up specifically designed for influencer and promoters

There are two major success factors to ensure that influencer referrals are successful and brings value. #1 You need to have the right reward structure both for influencer and members; #2 The execution needs to be streamlined and efficient to ensure you can amend, update and change the influencers and promoters that you are using. Memberson have expertise in both these areas.

‍

Concept

Give out specific influencer promo codes to a set of influencers (often in social media) that gives the person that signs up an attractive offer and enable you to track how many sign up and associated purchases that each influencer has achieved (and reward them)

‍

Execution

1. Identify influencers
2. Create unique promo codes for each influencer
3. Set up the sign-up reward mechanism for new members (voucher or points)
4. New member signup with an influencer promo code
5. Run promo code report to identify signups & transactions from each influencer
6. Reward the influencer

‍

KPI

• Cost of influencer rewards
• Increase in member growth – > 20% [depends on number of influencers]
• Increase in transactions -> 5% [depends on increase in member growth]

‍

Detailed Execution in Memberson Loyalty CRM Platform

This is a typical implementation process but there are various configuration options available depending on the awards and criteria for a successful referral.

‍

#1 Identify Influencers

In this use case we are trying to drive member acquisitions by using influencers on various social medial platforms. The first step is to identify influencers that:

• The brand wants to be associated with
• Is expected to make a meaningful contribution to the number of new members they can bring in

Let’s assume that you have identified 5 influencers that will make a difference for your brand and that you want to work with.

‍

#2 Create unique promo codes for each influencer

You will set up 5 different signup promo codes, one for each influencer so you can track how many members each influencer attracts and the transactions that those members make on your platform. For the sign-up promo codes you will need to decide on an additional award you are going to give these members to increase the incentives. For example a $20 voucher that will be given in addition to the normal welcome bonus.

For this example we will define the below 5 promo codes and we will set these promo codes to be available for use in October 2024 (only):

IN01, IN02, IN03, IN04, IN05

‍

‍#3 Set up the sign-up reward mechanism for new members‍

First we need to create or set up a $20 voucher in the voucher admin. We will keep it a simple set up:

‍

Thereafter we will set this up as a Reaktor rule (sign up promo codes) and if a person is using the referral code IN01 to IN05 a $20 voucher will be issued to this user as part of the welcome package (in addition to the standard incentives). Please see the criteria and action setting for the example rule below:

‍

#4 New member signup with an influencer promo code

Now the influencer campaign can be launched and each influencer may promote member acquisition through social media, podcast or events.

‍

At this stage you would also have clarified what referral fee that each influencer will receive. We would recommend that the influencers receive $x based on each member that has made a purchase of at least $y within2 months of the start date of the campaign or something similar. However, there may be scenarios where you are only interested in building your membership base and have other criteria for rewarding the influencer.

When a new member signs up the will enter the promo code in the sign up channel (mobile, web, tablet or third-party channel). Please see a simplified form below with the promo code field.

‍

A new member signs up with the influencer promo code the promo code will be recorded against the membership and the rule set up will trigger the issuance of the voucher (based on the promo code). A possible addition is to also trigger a separate influencer EDM based on the promo code used in the same rule.

‍

#5 Run promo code report to identify signups & transactions from each influencer

To identify the members that has used a particular influencer promo code and how much they have spent since sign up you can simply run a member list report and we recommend that you download it to excel so you then can do further manipulation to determine what reward that each influencer should receive, depending on what you have agreed with them.

‍

#6 Reward the influencer

The last step after the campaign is finalized is to reward each influencer based on the results, this is typically done separately by Finance. Alternatively is to get each influencer to sign-up as a member and give them the rewards in terms of merchandise or vouchers that can be used to buy your merchandise.

‍

Description

Use deeplinks in the mobile app from push notifications directly into vouchers or events to drive a much deeper and meaningful engagement. Can be bundled with voucher utilization restrictions for further exclusivity

Examples of benefits:

• Improve Mobile App usage and benefit: Ensuring active engagement and mobile app usage
• Increase member transactions: Drives additional member transactions by getting members to use vouchers

The design of the loyalty best practice is important to ensure it has the right voucher, push message and utilization restrictions to maximize the success. Memberson can help you navigate both the business application and technical implementation.

‍

Concept

Use deep links in the Mobile App to take the person directly to the voucher redemption or voucher detail page to both promote the particular product / event / benefit and to ensure higher redemption and conversion rates.

‍

Execution Overview

1. Set up new offer with voucher, you can either issue the voucher or leave it for redemption
2. Define a push notification with deep links
3. Execute the campaign and engagements
4. On tap take the person directly to the voucher, either the voucher redemption page to redeem the voucher or directly to the voucher to utilize it
5. Optional: use utilization restrictions to make it more exclusive
6. Track voucher utilization

‍

KPI

• Cost of benefit
• Increase in spending / purchases > 5%

‍

Detailed Execution in Memberson Loyalty CRM Platform

The deep link functionality can go to various different places within a mobile app such as Message inbox, My Account Page, Events / News Page among others. However, for the purpose of this best practice we will direct the user to a specific voucher which has been issued to the member as a specific offer.

‍

#1 Set up new offer with voucher

There are several different options you can use in terms of where in the voucher flow you want to trigger this and what type of restrictions that you want to employ. For this example, we will use the following logic:

• It will be issued to members that have spent at least an equivalent of SGD100 this year (2024 used in our example)

• Only the first 100 vouchers can be used (what we call utilisation restriction)

The purpose is to drive the end of season sale of a product. The first step is to set up the voucher and we have used some basic voucher setting as per the below screenshot.

There are many options around stock balance, redemption restrictions (total, member, daily etc) but what we will use in this case is the utilization restrictions and limit the total utilization to 100 (even though we may have issued more vouchers).

The next step is to issue out this voucher. We will create a campaign called “Special Restricted Offer to Spending Members” so we also can set up a deep link push notification in the same campaign.

We will use the following target criteria (just use the total spending and date):

The target criteria are used for both engagements (to give voucher and send push notifications).

‍

#2 Define a push notification with deep links

For people to actively be aware of the voucher that has been given to them we will now in the same campaign set up a push notification that will go out the day after the vouchers have been issued to the members.

We will set up the push notification with deep links so by tapping the push notification the user is directly taken to the voucher they have been given. There are many pre-configured options where to go within the app once you tap the notification but for this use case it should go to the voucher.

A few things to note when setting up the design for the push notification. The action field defines what deep link you want to set up and the action parameter defines in this case the actual voucher that the user should be redirected to.

We also include a notification image and a voucher which will allow the user to go to the voucher from the message inbox within the app as well.

‍

#3 Execute the campaign and engagements

We have now set up the campaign and individual engagements to be executed after each other (voucher first and then push notification). We could of course add more communications and reminders via other channels as well but for this scenario we will restrict it to one voucher followed by one push notification.

‍

#4 Member receives push notification and taps on it

The member would already have received the voucher and once the push notification comes to their phone they can tap on it. Once they tap on the push notification they will be immediately taken to the voucher in My Rewards and they will see exactly how many vouchers that are available.

If they missed the push notification or has turned it on, once they go into the App they will see that they have a new message / notification and can access the message in the inbox. From the inbox if they press the Show Voucher button they will be taken to the voucher directly.

‍

‍

#5 Track voucher utilization

You can now track the voucher utilization either directly in the Voucher Admin page or you can run the voucher utilization report to see additional details around the utilization.

It is of course possible to set up various similar combinations and scenarios including multiple messages. However, by sending a push notification that takes the member directly to the voucher, it increases the chances of the member actually using the offer and making the purchase.

Description

Customer loyalty surveys lead to a better understanding your customers as a tool to measure and reward your customers for completing the survey and providing specific feedback on your loyalty program. It also enables you to design your loyalty program and marketing campaigns based on specific member views and feedback.

Examples of strategic benefits:

• Measuring actual loyalty customer satisfaction
• Increase cost efficiency of programs: Asking specific questions is a cost-effective way to enhance your loyalty program to identify the right areas to improve
• Improve effectiveness of marketing campaigns by using the loyalty survey to segment your campaigns and rewards

Using Memberson’s expertise on loyalty will ease you into asking the right and relevant questions on your customer loyalty survey leading to increased customer satisfaction

‍

Concept

A customer loyalty survey is used to identify loyalty preferences and opinions of your members to enhance your program and brand. In its simplest form it is a Net Promotion Score survey used to gauge customer loyalty, satisfaction, and enthusiasm with a company. By enabling you to identify the customers and link it to purchases, behavior and attributes you gain insights into how to improve both your loyalty program but also your marketing campaigns.

‍

Execution Overview

1. Set up survey and integration
2. Target and identify customer segment for survey participation
3. Consolidate survey results
4. [Optional] Reward customers who have participated in the survey
5. Run analysis to track participation, results and use results to improve program and campaigns

‍

KPI

• Cost of eDM/SMS blast for survey participation and survey tool
• Cost of survey participation reward [if any]
• Increase in repeat purchase from participants (through reward) – > 10%
• Better understanding of next loyalty action and strategy

‍

Detailed Execution in Memberson Loyalty CRM Platform

This is a typical implementation process for a simple NPS survey where we store the result in your CRM solution. Do note that there are various configuration options available. When you set up more advanced survey’s you should run the analysis of these survey’s in the survey tool directly to improve the insights of the program.

‍

#1 Create Survey (using TypeForm as an example)

The first step is to sign up and design the survey for the Net Promotion Score. As an example we will use TypeForm since Memberson already have a pre-built Zapier integration with TypeForm.

Typeform: People-Friendly Forms and Surveys

‍

Do note that depending on the survey solution used there will be a cost for the online survey which will depend on how many responses you are looking to get. You can manage this via targeting certain sets of customer in phases.

Once you have signed up you need to create the survey. This can simple be done by creating a form, select start from scratch and then select Net Promoter Score.

‍

Thereafter go to newly created form, select Logic and then “Personalize with data” and hidden fields. Here you will now create the hidden field “customer_number” that will allow you to connect the survey that you have created with the actual customer in the CRM system if you provide the customer_number in the survey link. Thereafter proceed to publish the survey.

‍

You can now get the link that you need to give your customers for them to respond to the survey (under the share menu item). However, before proceeding we need to create a link between TypeForm and Memberson CRM platform.

‍

#2 Set up a TAG in CRM (if not available)

Set up a TAG in CRM to store the Net Promoter Score result (1-10 score)

‍

#3 Create a Zap connecting TypeFrom and Memberson

This will require the support from Memberson. We already have pre-built zaps for this purpose that can be configured in a few minutes for this purpose. Please see below some screenshots with details.  

‍

#4 Send out marketing email for people to respond to the survey

Set up an engagement (preferable email) and encourage people to complete the survey. It can be part of other EDMs and marketing messages as well. This is the standard set up, below is a very simple EDM template and do note that the button have the link to the survey with the data binding parameter [@customer_number] that will be populated with each members customer number. This is critical so we can tie back the survey response to the customer profile.

‍

Once done send the EDM out to the target audience in Engage.

‍

#5 Member responds and NPS score is saved into profile

The member will receive the email and by clicking on the button they will be taken to the TypeForm survey as per below:

‍

When they enter submit the survey results it will be automatically imported under TAGS with the score value chosen.

‍

#6 [Optional] Reward customer who participated in the survey

This can typically be done in engage or reaktor rule by using the Net Promoter Score Tag and reward those that have updated their NPS. For example a voucher or similar to drive further engagement with the customer.

Alternative if an interaction was created to indicate that someone has completed a more comprehensive loyalty survey that interaction could be used to give rewards.

‍

#7 Review and follow up on the results

You can review the results in a report that displays the TAGS and score and do analysis on how your NPS is impacted based on different customer attributes or behaviors and how it is changing overtime.

But more importantly, you can now run certain campaigns, loyalty incentives and rewards and programs based on the NPS, both to improve the NPS in the future but also to target and design your loyalty program better.

‍

‍

Description

By implementing a referral program as part of your broader loyalty scheme, you can expect both immediate and long-term benefits in customer engagement, revenue growth, and reduced marketing costs.

Examples of strategic benefits:

• Customer Retention: Rewarding existing customers for referrals reinforces their connection with your brand, improving retention rates.
• Lower Customer Acquisition Costs: Referrals are a cost-effective way to acquire new customers, cutting down on marketing spend.
• Quality Leads: People are likely to refer like-minded individuals who fit your target customer profile, leading to higher quality leads.

There are multiple pitfalls with wrong referral implementation but Memberson provides the knowledge and functionality to implement referral programs with successful outcomes.

‍

Concept

Establish referral program that enables members to refer friends, family, colleagues where both the member and the person signing up receives benefits and incentives to engage with the brand

‍

Execution

1. Define scope of referral program
2. Set up rewards and incentives of referral program
3. Provide sharing mechanism of personal codes for referral
4. Ensure referral codes input fields and logic is enabled in sign up channels
5. Run report and analysis to track referral metrics

‍

KPI

• Member acquisition =>10% increase in members
• Spending=> 5% increase
• Cost of referral rewards

‍

Detailed Execution in Memberson Loyalty CRM Platform

This is a typical implementation process but there are various configuration options available depending on the exact rewards and referral strategy.

‍

#1 Define scope of referral program

Typically, the scope is to include all the members and allow them to share their referral (personal) code with anyone. However, it is possible to be more selective and only include a certain set of members (VIP or high-value clients) and give more attractive rewards based on who is referring and the activity of the person referring. However, for this particular use case we will include all the members, and we will set up a generic set of rewards and incentive.

We do recommend that a more detailed strategy session is being conducted to determine the exact scope and parameters of the referral program.

‍

#2 Set up rewards and incentives of the referral program

In order to encourage your existing members to invite their friends to join the membership program there typically needs to be two set of incentives:

• One for the person that is referring the member
• And one for the person that is signing up

For this use case we will give $20 vouchers for the person that is referring the member and $20 additional voucher for the person signing up, which will be in addition to any other welcome package that may be available for the sign up.

‍

‍

It is recommended to also consider post purchase rewards structure as an alternative, which is described in more detail in #24 Loyalty Best Practice – Increase spending via invite a friend with post purchase rewards.

‍

#3 Provide sharing mechanism of personal codes for referral

Every member has a personal unique code as part of their profile:

‍

This can be displayed in the member channels (e-commerce site, member portal, mobile app or similar) with mechanisms to make it easy for them to share with their friends.

Do note that it is critical that the sharing of the personal code is done by the member from their personal email or mobile number. Both from a consent perspective but also to ensure that it is a personal direct request. The member channel can make it easy to share by automatically open up whatsapp, SMS or email channels with the referral link or personal code already populated in the message to the member. See some examples below:

‍

‍

#4 Ensure referral code input fields and logic is enabledin sign-up channels

Once a person has received a referral code, they can eitherclick on the link (web-based sign up forms) and the referral will beautomatically included in the sign up field, or if the sign up form is in amobile app the user may need to manually type in the referral code.

‍

Once a person uses the referral code a relation will becreated between the person that referred the member and the new member. This enablestracking from both the referrer and the referrer. At the same time the referralincentive is given (if it is based on the sign-up event). Please see below anexample of such a relations created due to referrals (invite a friend):

‍

#5 Run report and analysis to track referral metrics

You can now run simplereferral report to check on both how many people that has been referred andwhat type of activity that they generate over certain periods of time.

Once referrals has beenenabled you want to treat this as a campaign and promote this and potentiallychange the reward and incentive mechanism to drive further referrals andrefresh your referral program. One typical problem we see is that there is someexcitement and tractions when it is first launched but after this there is nofurther promotions or information about the referral program and limitedreferrals is being made thereafter.

As highlighted before if thereis too many of the referrals that do not generate activity do considerintroducing post purchase rewards for the referre instead of sign-up rewards. See#24 Loyalty Best Practice – Increase spending via invite a friendwith post purchase rewards.

Many brands creates a welcome message to the loyalty program and a few may have a basic engagements after the initial welcome message to introduce them to the loyalty program. However, a more advanced loyalty strategy is to build a loyalty journey around the first and second purchase to improve the chances that the acquisition of a new member translates into a valuable loyal consumer. The key is to develop first & second purchase journey that includes:

• Information, encouragement and benefits leading up to the first purchase
• Acknowledge and engage after the first purchase
• Provide incentive and benefits to ensure a second purchase is made
• After second purchase track behavior to identify if the member is becoming a loyal customer

The overall objective is to ensure as many as possible of the members signing up to the loyalty program makes both a first and second purchase to enable them to become a loyal customer over time. The second purchase may be one of the most important milestone for a member and this is often forgotten or ignored in most loyalty programs.

Description

There are solutions that provides (or at least claim to provide) smart product recommendations via AI-driven models that can customize the upsell and cross-sell prompts integrated into the e-commerce platform. However, these models typically only rely on the online data and the fact that the person is already on the e-commerce site going through the checkout process.

These type of product recommendations engines can be complemented by a more broader product rebuy engagement journey with loyalty items and actions. Through analysis you can identify certain segment of members that buys a certain set of products and when the optimal time is to engage with them and give them specific loyalty offer to trigger a rebuy from the member. This complements and can enhance your standard product recommendation engine to further drive your rebuy percentage.

Examples of strategic benefits:

• Increase in spending through rebuy: The most important benefit is to drive the spending of rebuys
• Customer retention: Enabling existing members to rebuy a product to an attractive offer when it is the right time increases their connection with the brand, improving retention rates.

For certain companies having the right product rebuy engagement journey may yield substantial benefit as long as you to constantly review and refine this journey. Another aspect is to ensure that you focus on areas that actually will make a difference to avoid spending time and effort on something that will only result in minimal benefit.

Therefore, it is important to have a loyalty mobile app that has flexible configurations settings enabling you update and change the appearance and behaviour of the loyalty mobile app without having to publish a new version.

This would typically include items such as adding or removing menu items on the fly, changing membership cards at any time, enabling or disabling promo and referral sign-up fields etc.

Examples of strategic benefits:

• Member interest and engagements: Keep the members engaged and interested in the loyalty program by refreshing the look, feel and features available in the App
• Member retention: Enabling existing members to experience new design and features to increases their connection with the brand and improving retention rates.

Although it may be difficult to measure the exact impact of this best practice in the current digital word it cannot be underestimated how important it is to stay relevant with design and feature updates, especially to a younger audience.

‍

Concept

Enable seamless loyalty updates to menu, design and features in the loyalty mobile app to stay relevant with high engagement without having to develop and publish new mobile app versions.

Description

Loyalty program breakage is the difference between the loyalty points earned by members and the points redeemed for rewards or benefits. This loyalty metric is often used to assess financial liability related to the value of unredeemed points, however it is also an important metric to estimate the performance of the loyalty program.

Average point breakage rates often range from 5-30%, while average retail loyalty breakage is around 25%. It's important to note that the breakage rate can be influenced by many factors, including the structure of the loyalty program, the frequency of redemptions, and the incentives offered.

A high level of loyalty point breakage indicates a low level of engagement by members with the program and a mismatch between the rewards offered and members preferences. This excessive breakage can undermine the program's purpose and negatively affect its value for both members and the brand. High point breakage rates signal declining member engagement and signify the program's decreased effectiveness.

By tracking this metric and implement actionable strategies and tactics to reduce the loyalty point breakage may increase the value and spending of your members.

Examples of strategic benefits:

• Member interest and engagements: Keep the members engaged and ensure they redeem and engage with the brand
• Member spending: With the right rewards and thresholds to drive engagement and redemption the spending of your members will increase.

‍

Concept

Improve you members engagement and spending by optimizing the loyalty program breakage ratio by a set of actionable loyalty tactics. Understand if and when your loyalty program reward structure is causing lower engagement levels.
