Case study: How a health products retailer using BON Loyalty to drive sales

In today’s competitive market, loyalty programs are not just a nice-to-have; they are an essential part of driving customer engagement and boosting sales. This has been vividly demonstrated by a thriving online pharmaceutical warehouse in Turkey, led by visionary entrepreneur İsmail Cem Erzincanlı. İsmail’s business, which boasts an inventory of over 2000 products ranging from vitamins and supplements to healthy foods, has seen remarkable success thanks to the strategic implementation of BON Loyalty’s cutting-edge app.\

The Challenge: Enhancing Customer Retention

Ismail’s business, backed by a robust manufacturing backbone provided by his father’s company, initially faced hurdles in retaining customers. With a vast array of products and a significant percentage being fragile or prone to damage, customer retention was challenging. This was compounded by the initial low awareness and engagement with the store’s loyalty program.

The Solution: Implementing BON Loyalty

After evaluating several options, İsmail decided to implement BON Loyalty, attracted by its comprehensive suite of features tailored to his business needs at an affordable price. The decision to switch to BON Loyalty was pivotal. İsmail found that the app’s coupon feature was particularly effective. This feature allowed for easy distribution and redemption of rewards, which significantly increased customer engagement and encouraged repeat purchases.

Impressive Results: A Surge in Sales and Engagement

The results speak for themselves. Within Q4 2023, the loyalty program under BON Loyalty has redeemed over 500 rewards, generating approximately $13,000 in revenue, which represents a 6% revenue ratio—a significant figure in the retail sector.

Initially, the loyalty program might have been a well-kept secret among employees and early customers, but it has since grown to become a cornerstone of İsmail’s business strategy.

Strategic Use of Loyalty Rewards

Ismail’s strategic approach ensures that the loyalty program enhances customer satisfaction without overwhelming the business’s operations. By not overly promoting the loyalty program, Ismail smartly manages demand and maintains a balance between new customer acquisition and satisfying existing customers. This approach has proven successful, keeping the loyalty rewards special and maintaining their perceived value.

Exceptional Support and User-Friendly Interface

Another notable benefit has been the exceptional customer support provided by BON Loyalty, even to users of its free version. The platform’s ease of use, combined with features like the preview option that allows changes in text and style, has made it particularly user-friendly. This has enabled Ismail and his team to fine-tune their loyalty offerings to better match customer expectations and business goals.

A Testament to Effective Loyalty Strategies

Ismail Cem Erzincanlı’s experience with BON Loyalty exemplifies how well-designed loyalty programs can significantly enhance customer retention and increase sales.
