How to Promote Sign-ups to the Loyalty Program

Posted on October 18, 2023

Maximize Sign-ups: Enhancing the Registration Experience

 

Securing customer loyalty begins with a smooth and enticing registration process. Here’s a comprehensive approach to boost sign-ups effectively:

1. Register Upselling: Train your cashiers to be the front-line advocates for your loyalty program. Provide them with a succinct script that highlights the exclusive benefits awaiting the members. Whether it's discounts, rewards, or personalized offers, make sure your customers know what's in it for them. To make the process even smoother, consider employing customer-facing displays or self-registration options at the point of purchase. Convenience is key, after all.

2. Digital Marketing Magic: Leverage email campaigns, website banners, and creative social media content to engage potential members. Clearly communicate the sign-up process and highlight unique program advantages. Anywhere your guests look, make sure they see the perks of joining your loyalty program. Use clear instructions, engaging visuals, and compelling messaging to encourage them to take the plunge.

3. Four Walls Marketing: Utilize both printed and digital branding assets strategically placed within your restaurant. Display posters, table tents, and signage showcasing the program’s benefits. Ensure these materials are highly visible, especially near the entrance, at the register, or on digital ordering screens. Make sure your message is impossible to miss, emphasizing the value they stand to gain by becoming a member.

4. In-bag Marketing: Capitalize on take-out and delivery orders by including creative print materials inside bags. Use this opportunity to promote the loyalty program and encourage sign-ups for future benefits. Consider offering exclusive discounts to incentivize sign-ups during the first online order or delivery experience.

By integrating these strategies, you’ll not only simplify the sign-up process but also create an enticing narrative that encourages customers to join your loyalty program, fostering lasting relationships and ensuring repeat business.
