When can we help?

We support our clients by providing a range of services in the loyalty space. Eighty20 mines the large volumes of transactional data generated by loyalty programmes to create personalised marketing campaigns, develop predictive models of customer behaviour, enhance operational performance and provide ongoing business intelligence and advanced reporting to both programme owners and partners.

Typically we are asked to help when a client wants to:

  1. Design a new programme, improve an existing programme, or simply perform an independent programme review
  2. Ensure that they are maximising the benefit from the programme by driving acquisition, retention and growth
  3. Use the data and insights generated by the programme and levers within the programme design to improve overall business performance
  4. Better understand their customers and develop a deeper understanding of how the programme is changing customer behaviour and creating customer entrenchment
  5. Improve their customer engagement, CRM and personalisation strategies and execution

 

Our Approach

Our strategy led and data driven approach to helping build a new or optimise an existing loyalty programme includes the following steps:

  1. Clear understanding of the goals and objectives of the programme
  2. Development of design alternatives and a programme evolution plan
  3. Customer sensing to help evaluate these alternatives and determine customers’ absolute and relative preferences
  4. Rigorous financial modeling and business case development to understand the breakeven requirements and likelihood of success 
  5. Unpack and agree the optimal customer experience
  6. Develop the operating model, allowing for system and capability constraints
  7. Execute, maintain and evolve
