Winning with Loyalty
The Approach
We started by hosting discussions with the people using affinity programs to deeply understand their lived experiences and how those shape the feelings, language, and thoughts they have around these programs. We then scaled and fielded a highly informed survey among 8,000 people, covering the ins and outs of affinity programs across 14 different categories. Determined to leave no stone unturned, we explored various dimensions of loyalty, the different types of people who engage, and what it all means for the health of any affinity program. Lastly, we quantitatively diagnosed the mechanics that affinity programs use to deliver emotional and experiential benefits.
The Impact
We delivered a ‘choose your own adventure’ narrative that allowed our client to customize the content and provide strategic recommendations and guidance for their audience.
Recognizing that affinity programs are not all built the same and, importantly, that people have different goals and expectations within different categories, we developed a single, cross-category equation that quantifies any affinity program’s health.
