Loyalty 3.0: More than a discount card

To achieve meaningful customer loyalty, brands need to think beyond discounts in terms of short-term gain, and re-imagine customer relationships with the goal of long-term engagement that drives profitable interactions. While rewarding loyal customers with discounts has its place, how can you leverage customer data, add in personalization, participation and gamification to create valuable experiences at each customer moment of truth? In this session we will hear from author and analyst Denis Pombriant as he shares his research and interviews with leading brands such as Hilton Worldwide, Southwest Airlines and SOL REPUBLIC on what it takes to earn customer loyalty TODAY.
