Objective
The Rewards Club is designed to:
- Introduce a target-and-reward framework that balances business goals with customer benefits.
- Motivate customers to increase their spending through achievable and appealing rewards.
- Foster stronger engagement with both dormant and low-spending customers, reinforcing loyalty to MKM.
Our Role
Our relationship with MKM began in 2015, when we collaborated to design and launch the MKM Rewards Club from the ground up. Since then, Loyalty Works has continued to manage and develop the program, delivering various successful campaigns and implementing regular improvements to ensure it remains engaging and rewarding for members. This long-standing partnership reflects our shared commitment to customer loyalty and continuous innovation. We do this by:
- Analysing customer and sales data to identify opportunities for growth and reactivation.
- Maintaining a target-and-reward model that encourages incremental spending.
- Managing the MKM Rewards Club brand and rewards to keep them attractive to customers.
- Operating the progressive web app (PWA) so customers can track progress easily.
- Coordinating multi-channel customer communications, including email, SMS, mailers, and telemarketing.
- Engaging branch teams to ensure smooth implementation and ongoing support.
The Challenge
While MKM maintains strong engagement with its frequent, high-spending customers, there was an ongoing opportunity to connect with less active customers: those who have lapsed, become dormant, or opened an account but never made a purchase. The company aimed to:
- Reactivate dormant customers.
- Encourage increased spending from low-activity accounts.
- Strengthen loyalty and increase product range purchases, particularly in higher-margin areas.
- Show appreciation to these customers, maintain relevance, and encourage them to prioritise MKM over competitors.
