"I just bought new shoes for my daughter. It was at the dinner table when she walked her first steps with her new shoes, holding my big hands in her little fingers. With stumbling moves, she debuted into walking to enter the new phase of her life. Amanda and I went crazy seeing our baby walking. Tears rolled down; we clicked pictures and videos. We wanted to share our feelings badly with the world," said Cooper, father of little girl Catherine.
It is with moments like the above, Stride ride decided to build a community for parents and kids. A loyal community to share, express and laugh at their child's first walk. Building a community not only creates a sense of belongingness in the customer but also helps the brand enhance customer engagement and boost revenues. A loyalty program is the best way to build this community!
Being the leading kid's footwear brand for the last 100 years, Stride Rite started looking for experts who could help them launch a multidimensional loyalty program. That's where they found Zinrelo, the expert in unlocking the true potential of the community by building loyalty programs.
Together they launched their loyalty program: "Little Loyals". The vision of Stride Rite is to let kids stay the way they are. So Zinrelo built the loyalty program keeping their vision at the top to cut through the noise and deliver the brand message.
Zinrelo focused on keeping the customer engaged and motivated by rewarding them for each action essential to build the community. Stride Rite awarded points when customers signed up, for social sharing and expressing their joy through reviews. When a product receives 5 reviews or more, the chances of users purchasing it increases by 270%. The sharing of emotions and joy made them feel special and rewarded for each action. Stride Rite witnessed a 1.31X higher customer retention after launch of ‘little loyal’ program.
The key features of the loyalty program that led to the creation of a loyal community -
- 3 Tier levels of loyalty to show the level of engagement of the customer with Stride Rite
- Surprise days when users get double or triple rewards points
- Simple activities resulted in reward points like referrals, social sharing, and purchases etc.
- Birthday & Anniversary days were rewarded with bonus points.
“A loyalty program helped us create stronger customer engagement and we have seen the average order value increase by 25.29%.” commented Pia Shah, Marketing Analyst at Stride Rite.
