Endeavour Group Loyalty Program Design Approach
Approach

This project primarily focused on the strategic development of ALH's new loyalty proposition. Leveraging best-in-class loyalty fundamentals, overlaid with key business and customer insights, a number of key proposition territories were identified and strategically stress-tested. 

Key to these propositions was the use of gamification to ensure always-on activation and enhance the customer experience to drive emotional loyalty across multiple customer segments.

We then tested these proposition territories via quantitative research to better understand customer preference, engagement and behaviour.

Tortoise & Hare also supported Endeavour and ALH to operationalise the program through detailed design of key program elements, development of T&Cs, UX and launch planning.
