Loyalty and CRM in a New World

The DMA Customer Engagement Committee participated in a roundtable discussion to explore the common challenges arising from the pandemic across charity, travel, financial services, and retail sectors. Scott Logie, Chair of the Committee, led the session.

The talk kicked off with a presentation by Pete Howroyd, Customer loyalty and CRM expert, on the new rules of loyalty in our changed world, which included:

• Understanding customer loyalty
• Emotion as a powerful asset
• Personalisation: online shopping and new customers
• The onboarding process
• Winning back customers
• Social media and loyalty
• The consequences of early promotion

The presentation was followed by a Q&A session with Howroyd. Afterwards, the group explored what changes in consumer behaviour they’ve noticed, what they’ve done as brands to try and mitigate that change, and what results they’ve seen over the last four months.

The roundtable finished off with tips for brands on supporting staff during these times.
