Use gamification and big data to take customer and employee loyalty to the next level
A leader in gamification helps business leaders drive engagement, participation, and greater customer and employee loyalty than ever with proven new methods
Loyalty 3.0 describes game-changing methods for driving customer and employee loyalty that are based on two of the biggest trends in business today: gamification and big data.
The book explains how previous loyalty-building tactics”such as frequent flyer, hotel, and grocery store programs”were designed before social media and the Internet itself. The approach in this book moves beyond those discreet purchase and incentive-driven experiences to create a system driven by human motivation and digital technology that creates ongoing, persistent engagement among both customers and employees.
The author is the founder of Bunchball, which Fast Company listed number seven in its roster of top 50 innovative companies.
Includes case studies of NBC, Cisco, Zappos, and MTV illustrating how Loyalty 3.0 programs have worked in real life
Rajat Paharia (Redwood City, CA) is the founder and Chief Product Officer at Bunchball. The company has also been spotlighted as a leading innovation company by Forbes, CNBC, Computerworld, Mashable, Marketing Sherpa, and many others. The New York Times and Wall Street Journal bestseller!
The new secret to driving LOYALTY THAT PAYS
Once revolutionary, loyalty programs designed to differentiate products quickly became commoditized. And yet, billions of dollars are still spent every year on programs that are doomed to fail.
