Praise from attending professionals

“Despite the fact that I have 25 years’ experience in CRM, loyalty and database marketing, there was some really interesting progressive information that I will be taking back to my workplace."

Debbie Royale, Deputy Director, Nottingham Society

 

“The BAU usually takes over and we lost sight of the strategic goals that we should focus on, so this course has been a good reminder of the key principles of what makes great loyalty. Philip's lectures have been absolutely fascinating and really helps sort out the focus of how we think about loyalty and helped me to identify some easy wins and some good gap closers, every minute was gold dusting."

Louisa Evans, Head of Loyalty and Retention, Hornby Hobbies

 

“Absolutely loved this course, one of my favourite things has been the networking opportunity to collaborate with other loyalty leaders across many different industries and also learning about the psychology that sits behind loyalty."

Michelle Williams, Senior Loyalty Manager, Vodafone

 

“It has been amazing, the chance to digest some of the knowledge that is in Loyalty Programs: The Complete Guide which is my go-to desk reference for all things loyalty but also to be in the room with great brands to talk about what is working and where we're stuck on our respective programs. It was a chance to talk across the industry, share best-practices and navigate challenges together is really valuable."

Sam Panzer, Director of Industry Strategy, Talon.One

"I found the Loyalty Programs: The Complete Masterclass very interesting to follow. It provides a complete deep dive into the world of loyalty. It covers all elements, from the business case, types of loyalty programs, and do's & don'ts to fraud and risks. It also offers insights on how to win over the CFO as a supporter of your loyalty program. The training came at the perfect time for me, as I am currently working on setting up the business case and strategy. Many of the topics covered can be immediately applied to my daily work. Highly recommended!"
