On top of that, the average current customer tends to spend 67% more than a new one. While every dining and entertainment business needs to focus on procuring new clients, don\u2019t commit the cardinal sin of ignoring the potential money right under your nose: your loyal customer base.<\/p>\n<p>With notable statistics like these, it\u2019s essential to consider what your company is doing to keep your existing customers coming back for more. And, if you\u2019re like millions of marketers, your business has implemented a customer loyalty program.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.valpak.com\/advertise\/products-services\/direct-mail-cardstock\">Loyalty programs<\/a> aren\u2019t just a way to give out free bowling games or half-off appetizers. When used effectively, they can be a powerful marketing tool that benefits your customer while increasing your ROI, harboring brand loyalty and attracting a new client base. Let&#8217;s talk about why loyalty programs are great for business and how you can create one that meets your customers&#8217; needs.<\/p>\n<h2>Benefits of Loyalty Cards<\/h2>\n<p>Perhaps the greatest thing about rewards programs is that they truly benefit everyone involved. The customers are rewarded and\/or motivated to come back and the business enjoys consistent sales.<\/p>\n<p>Creating a compelling customer loyalty program also provides more interaction and engagement between your staff and customers. Your staff will likely introduce and explain your loyalty program to your customers, so make sure they\u2019re excited about it too. If your staff represents your brand well, your customers are more inclined to be passionate about it.<\/p>\n<p>You probably won\u2019t be the only New York-style pizza joint in town. In light of that, offering customer loyalty cards will show clients how much you value their business and appreciate they chose you over Anthony\u2019s Pizza down the street. These are golden opportunities to nurture relationships with new and existing customers. A loyalty program, such as \u201cbuy 4 large pizzas, get the 5th free,\u201d doesn\u2019t cost you much. But not having a rewards program \u2013 customers to Anthony\u2019s, which does \u2013 will absolutely affect your bottom line.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, you\u2019ll need to choose the best way to implement your loyalty program, whether via mobile devices, physical punch cards or the web, and how you will track it internally. You\u2019ll also need to examine ways you\u2019re going to promote your loyalty program. Will it be at the point of sale? Will there be signage in your business prompting customers to inquire? What about incorporating it into your current advertising campaign, such as a\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.valpak.com\/advertise\/products-services\/direct-mail\">direct mail program<\/a>?<\/p>\n<h2>Loyalty Cards and Your Bottom Line<\/h2>\n<p>The simple fact is, companies that use customer loyalty programs thrive. Why? It\u2019s a simple and inexpensive initiative that creates a win-win situation for everyone. Loyalty programs for small businesses offer incentives for customers to return.<\/p>\n<p>Happy customers, and loyalty cardholders, can also become your brand advocates, increasing your exposure and boosting your reputation by word-of-mouth marketing. Take, for example, Celeste, bowling with a group of friends. When everyone goes up to the counter to pay, Celeste gets a free game because she hit her 9th punch, and the 10th game was free! Her friends, also looking for a free game, will likely sign up for the rewards program. Not only does the bowling alley now have Celeste\u2019s repeat business, it has her friends coming back to bowl as well! That\u2019s what we like to call a strike!<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, loyalty cards have been proven to boost sales. \u201c<a href=\"http:\/\/growthhackers.com\/\">Growth Hackers<\/a>,\u201d a group developed by tech startups, uses creativity and analytical thinking to help companies sell products and gain exposure. Its leadership understands customer loyalty is a surefire way to grow any business and uses that idea to create plans of action for its clients<\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, and we highly suggest this, use loyalty programs that require customers to \u201csign up\u201d to grow your customer database for future marketing opportunities. According to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.marketingsherpa.com\/article\/case-study\/customer-communication-by-channel\">Marketing Sherpa<\/a>, 72% of people like to receive brand-related content via email.<\/p>\n<p>Members of your loyalty program are <a href=\"http:\/\/www.retailcustomerexperience.com\/articles\/new-year-new-loyalty-five-lessons-you-might-have-missed-in-2014\/\">40% more likely<\/a> to open your promotional emails and 20% more likely to click on the links within these emails to access your website. Since these customers willingly gave you their information, they\u2019re more likely to be OK with you reaching out to them from time to time. After all, they clearly find value in your company and you\u2019ll probably have some great promotions in those newsletters!<\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s another new player in the game: the smartphone.<\/p>\n<p>A survey from <a href=\"https:\/\/retail.emarketer.com\/article\/shoppers-may-brand-fatigue-messaging-overload\/5b522d19ebd4000b241409a8?ecid=NL1014\">mobile marketing company Vibes<\/a> found more than 6 in 10 smartphone users in the U.S. subscribe to mobile messages for deals. 55% said they did so for loyalty points. 31% used a brand\u2019s mobile app to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.businesswire.com\/news\/home\/20180312005254\/en\/U.S.-Consumers-Rank-Fuel-Savings-Cash-Back-Rewards\">access their rewards<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2>Loyalty Program Best Practices<\/h2>\n<p>With technology today, everything we need is at our fingertips. While not a deal breaker, it\u2019s worth considering getting a loyalty card app or another way for customers to access your loyalty program on their phones. The bottom line is, you should really have a mobile-friendly or responsive website, or you\u2019ll be missing out on some serious business.<\/p>\n<p>A 2018 AudienceSCAN report found 91% of frequent diners own a smartphone, 24.1% downloaded an app for a product they\u2019re considering and 41.2% researched a company using Google Maps in the past 6 months. As you may infer from these numbers, some of the best loyalty programs have a mobile presence, as it can be imperative to the customer\u2019s path to purchase.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s also necessary to have a structure in place for tracking your program and validating points. Make sure all employees are held accountable for their actions and customers are earning their benefits fairly. For example, you want to avoid making it easy for customers to punch holes in loyalty cards themselves. Many companies have custom stamps or hole punchers to avoid this issue.<\/p>\n<p>A great way <a href=\"http:\/\/marketingland.com\/8-reasons-loyalty-programs-imperative-marketers-109077\">successful loyalty programs<\/a> remain active is to enable the reward to be applied to purchases made online, in person or both. To see which tactic is right for your business, look at where most of your sales are coming from. If you\u2019ve noticed that most sales are from those shopping online, strengthen your online rewards system. On the contrary, if most business is conducted in person, an in-store program may be the best fit. If, however, you\u2019ve discovered about half of your sales are derived from the internet and half from in-store purchases, you may want to come up with a loyalty program that integrates rewards for both points of purchase.<\/p>\n<p>As you\u2019ll see below, we\u2019ve uncovered some great stats about the dining and entertainment industries as they relate to consumers and smartphones.<\/p>\n<h3>Dining<\/h3>\n<p>Dining customers tend to respond strongly to ads and coupons when making a decision. Many diners are already out and about when they decide to eat at a restaurant. According to a 2018 AudienceSCAN report, 34% of restaurant goers who access information via a mobile device purchase immediately and 30% purchase within the hour. Having a website that is mobile-friendly is crucial to getting those hungry consumers!<\/p>\n<h3>Entertainment<\/h3>\n<p>We\u2019re also not surprised customers looking for entertainment react positively to ads and coupons when making a decision. Think of all the families looking for inexpensive things to do to keep their kids busy. A family of four planning to spend an afternoon at the arcade can rack up quite a bill. Decision-makers will always be looking for ways to save money for their households. Remember, entertainment is a luxury, not a necessity. If you don\u2019t give consumers a compelling reason to enter your arcade \u2014 chances are, they won\u2019t.<\/p>\n<h2>Loyalty Program Examples<\/h2>\n<p>According to a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.loyalty.com\/home\/insights\/article-details\/us-customer-loyalty-program-memberships-reach-double-digit-growth-at-3-billion-2017-colloquy-loyalty-census-reports\">Colloquy Customer Loyalty Census<\/a>, U.S. consumers hold 3.8 billion memberships in loyalty program. On average, that\u2019s 30 programs per household. 39% of respondents said they participate in loyalty programs because they offer great discounts. But 57% said they left a program because it took too long for them to earn rewards. While it can be inexpensive to implement, if no one\u2019s using your loyalty program, it\u2019s a waste of time! We\u2019ve outlined a few successful loyalty programs and ideas you may want to mirror when creating the foundation for your own customer loyalty program.<\/p>\n<h3>Use a Point System<\/h3>\n<p>This is the most common loyalty program on the market. Customers earn points with every purchase and eventually get to redeem those points for a discount or freebie. One thing to remember is to keep it intuitive.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEvery 25 points equals one dollar, and every dollar you earn gets you 35% off your purchase, but you have to use the discount within 2 months\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n<p>&#8230;that\u2019s more of a headache than a reward!<\/p>\n<h4>Ultimate Points<\/h4>\n<p>Ulta Beauty\u2019s Ultamate Rewards program is one of the best in retail. <a href=\"https:\/\/loyalty360.org\/content-gallery\/daily-news\/ulta-beauty-s-loyalty-program-stronger-than-ever\">90% of Ulta\u2019s sales<\/a> come from its loyalty program. So, what makes it so great?<\/p>\n<p>Its points program.<\/p>\n<p>Ulta gives members 1 point for every dollar spent. At 100 points, a member receives $3 off their purchase. For 250 points, they receive $8 off. Members can receive as much as $125 (the limit) off after acquiring 2,000 points.<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s not all. After you spend $450 in a year, you get bumped up to platinum level and earn 1 point for every $1.25 spent. When a member reaches $1,200, they earn 1.5 points for every dollar spent. Ulta also has flash sales where members can earn bonus points or free gifts. You can download its app and easily keep track of your points progress too.<\/p>\n<p>Members are sent up to 15 catalogs a year that include $3.50 off coupons. And yes, you can combine them with the money earned on your points!<\/p>\n<p>Local businesses without the technical capabilities to build a loyalty rewards app or the budget to send out 15 stand-alone catalogs can affordably reward consumers with coupons in a shared <a href=\"https:\/\/www.valpak.com\/advertise\/products-services\/direct-mail\">direct mailer<\/a> like Valpak!<\/p>\n<p>Keep in mind, if you\u2019re looking to do a points-based program, make sure the conversion is simple. Another great example of a successful, yet simple, points-based system is the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.starbucks.com\/card\/rewards\/rewards-program-ts-and-cs\">My Starbucks Rewards<\/a>\u00a0program. Starbucks <a href=\"http:\/\/loyalty360.org\/resources\/article\/loyalty-program-triggers-starbucks-record-q2\">attributed its rewards program<\/a> to a 26% jump in profit and 11% rise in total revenue.<\/p>\n<h3>Partner with Similar Companies<\/h3>\n<p>Partnership programs (also known as coalition programs) can be a wonderful way to keep a customer&#8217;s business local. But finding a strategic partner requires understanding your customers\u2019 lives and their purchasing habits.<\/p>\n<p>In town, there\u2019s a pizza store and Italian ice cream shop right next to one another. And it\u2019s kind of turned into a tradition; if you\u2019re going to get pizza at Lazy Moon, you\u2019re getting dessert at Jeremiah\u2019s. Why they never implemented a coalition program is befuddling to us. It\u2019s a golden opportunity to keep customers coming back. For example, Karen has plans to get ice cream at Jeremiah\u2019s with her friend Karlee, Tuesday after class. Karlee, instantly connecting Jeremiah\u2019s with Lazy Moon, suggests that before they do dessert, they get some pizza to receive a discount.<\/p>\n<p>Not only do these programs offer customers value for something that\u2019s relevant to them, but, beyond the scope of what your company alone can offer, they also help you grow your network to reach your partners\u2019 customers too.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s no secret every business needs to acquire new customers. We just don\u2019t want you to neglect your easiest and most-predictable source of revenue: you\u2019re current and loyal customers! With the cost of acquiring new customers growing, it\u2019s time to put some energy into growing and maintaining the relationships you\u2019ve already started with a customer loyalty program. The reality of it is, \u00a0targeting already-loyal shoppers with exclusive offers based on their buying habits is a win for everyone involved.<\/p>\n<h2>Steps\u00a0to Start Your Loyalty Program<\/h2>\n<p>Has your team attempted a loyalty program before?\u00a0If so, identify the pros, cons and ways in which you can improve.\u00a0Take note of what worked and what didn\u2019t and use that to create the foundation of a new and improved program.<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>\u00a0Make sure to have a reporting structure in place to track reward redemptions and completed cards.\n<ul>\n<li>Identify and correct holes in your system.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li>\u00a0Look at program sign-ups that require shoppers to fill out a form to participate.\n<ul>\n<li>Having this information enables you to create a strong customer database for future marketing opportunities.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li>\u00a0Research your competitors.\n<ul>\n<li>What are they doing well and what can you do different or better?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li>Mobile options for rewards programs are great, if possible, but not critical.\n<ul>\n<li>If you don\u2019t have the funds or tech savvy to implement, don\u2019t let that hold you back.<\/li>\n<li>Think about incorporating an online rewards program (if most of your sales are via the web). If you found that most clients shop in store, maybe an in-person program is all you need.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li>Evaluate options when it comes to rewards programs.\n<ul>\n<li>Which type would best benefit your customers?<\/li>\n<li>There\u2019s a variety of programs, such as point systems, games, partner programs, etc.<\/li>\n<li>What is most intuitive for your demographic and mutually beneficial?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>One of the best ways to increase brand loyalty is to be loyal to your customers! A rewards program will keep them coming back while increasing your bottom line. It really is a win-win!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Did you know that acquiring a new customer costs a business about 5-10 times more than it does to sell to an [\u2026]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":16389,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"siege-2018.php","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_uag_custom_page_level_css":"","_swt_meta_header_display":false,"_swt_meta_footer_display":false,"_swt_meta_site_title_display":false,"_swt_meta_sticky_header":false,"_swt_meta_transparent_header":false,"footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-6782","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-blog"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v24.7 (Yoast SEO v24.7) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Loyalty Programs Guide - Dining &amp;
