They are a mix of my predictions, perspectives, passion points and some may have a hint of a plea!
I have used my ‘Seven Zones of Loyalty Program Performance’ framework as the guide to categorise these ideas.
Some of the ideas are within the influence of the loyalty program manager and team and some are external factors impacting the program’s relevance and sustainability. I’ll let you decide.
