It’s well–known and well–documented that as the relevancy of a given marketing campaign increases, so does guest engagement. For example: a vegan is more likely to respond to a message promoting the new Impossible Burger than one for cheese fries.
This is why successful segmentation is so critical. For a campaign to be as effective as possible, it needs to be targeted to the right group of guests, based on their behavior; but traditionally, segmentation tools were limited to a single factor, like visit frequency, average spend, or commonly ordered items.
While this is better than a one-size-fits-all approach, these old methods of segmentation leave marketers with a one-dimensional view of their guests and provide little insight into what various segments have in common, or where they overlap.

Without a doubt it is the defining moment of any marketer’s career. It becomes that “aha” moment where you can say, “I probably should have segmented the audience for this campaign.”
The 2016 Paytronix User Experience was full of valuable insights – we reviewed program structure, hot promotions, and, most importantly, heard from you, our clients about how you leverage our software to take your program to the next echelon.
During the conference, it was my privilege to present tactics our clients can use to amp up their campaigns. I was joined by Data Insights strategist and resident loyalty powerhouse Christina Hurley. Together, we dissected campaigns, addressed relevancy drivers, and unveiled our 9 Gold Standard Campaigns that repeatedly drive material value for our client base.
A dissected campaign is comprised of three factors: segmentation, message, and reward. Any single campaign can include one or more combinations of these. For example, a typical “Birthday” reward has the following components: […]
