The new era of loyalty experiences

powered by Salesforce

Gone are the days when loyalty programs are just about points and benefits. Now it's more important than ever to drive customer demand and loyalty through personalized, differentiated and seamless experiences. 

PwC and Salesforce are teaming up to bring you a tech-enabled service built to help transform your traditional loyalty program into a new customer loyalty experience that helps drive sustained growth and customer loyalty.

It’s time to evolve your loyalty program into a loyalty experience

Whether B2B or B2C, the fundamental purpose of loyalty programs remain the same: drive sustained brand loyalty and advocacy, improved customer experiences and business value. Brands with differentiated experiences and unparalleled service are seeing improved results:  

An effective loyalty program helps deliver benefits in months, not years*: 

  • 3-10% Sales Comp Lift
  • 5-15% Transaction Comp Lift
  • 10-20% Average Spend Lift

By moving from a traditional loyalty approach to an experiential loyalty strategy, you can understand the true attitudes and behaviors of your customers in order to establish deeper & more meaningful connections that are rooted in their wants, needs, and values - as opposed to purely transactions and commercial exchanges.

* Numbers based on PwC experience.
