#58: Creating Emotional Connections: The Power of Loyalty Programs with Valerie Peck

Customer loyalty is the currency that sustains growth in almost any company. It means better business outcomes in key metrics like:

Increased Revenues

More Referrals

Lower Cost to Serve

Fewer Complaints

Greater Forgiveness

and much more.

The question Valerie Peck, long time CX luminary, thought leader, and Managing Director of SuiteCX and I explore is what role do loyalty programs play and what role should they play in earning customer loyalty that's more than transactional. In this episode, we explore some important questions such as: 1. How do loyalty programs impact customer behavior, and what are the emotional components at play in these programs? 2. What are the potential downsides of loyalty programs, and how can companies navigate these to maintain customer loyalty without negative impacts? 3. In what ways could companies strategically design loyalty programs to drive repurchase and revenue, while also maintaining customer satisfaction and loyalty? Meet Valerie!
