Consumer loyalty programs are designed by companies to show their regular customers thanks for their dedication to the business.
These reward programs are not only ways to show customer appreciation, they also act as great incentives to entice more people to sign up. One really amazing program that will definitely won't be hard to get people on board is Kroger Rewards, which is a program that essentially rewards people for repeatedly buying certain goods.
Food-related loyalty programs leave a lot of room for experimentation and creativity, and can help harness a loyal following to a particular good or brand.
The best part about consumer loyalty programs is it's a win-win; customers gain rewards and companies earn more business.
