 Company not performing well, so whether to retain the Nectar or “call
quit”

To answer we must understand
• Why loyalty Programs?
• Is Nectar a good Loyalty Program ?
• Is Nectar the best investment option for Sainsbury?
 Loyalty to whom ?? ….brand, products or low prices.
 Customer benefit vis-à-vis margins
 Is it really creating differentiation ??
A differentiating concept
 The strength of a Loyalty Program Concept lies in its ability to establish
relevance for target customers.
 Research studies have established that coalition programs (or cobranded programs) tend to fare well in their ability to motivate desired
customer behaviours.
 Another finding has been with the relevance of rewards for customers,
for example, contribution to a social cause.
Technological backing
 Analysts have indicated that successful realization of a CLP Solution is
influenced by a choice of technology.
 This mandates that a thorough analysis of an organization’s needs
along with an objective evaluation of solution options should precede a
decision about a CLP Solution.
 Defines evaluation parameters, as each evaluation situation is more
likely to be unique.
 Step 1:Loyalty Situation Analysis
