What IS Guest Loyalty?
Loyalty Marketing: Beyond the CardWhat Is It?
Loyalty is a feeling of attachment that customers have towards a brand.
Loyalty Marketing focuses on strengthening brand attachment to influence consumer behavior…one member at a time.
Why Do It?
The goal of Loyalty Marketing is to maximize the Lifetime Value of each customer through increased member frequency, spend and retention.
Loyalty Works
57% of adults said they would be more likely to visit a restaurant that offered a customer loyalty program rather than one that did not.

Loyalty

Welcome, Birthday, Anniversary)
