Business Challenges
- Low Brand Loyalty Among Influencers
Influencers often recommended products based on short-term incentives or availability rather than long-term brand loyalty, limiting sustained influence. - No Visibility into Last-Mile Influence
The brand lacked data on which influencers were driving sales, which locations performed best, and which SKUs were being recommended. - Inconsistent Dealer & Distributor Engagement
Dealers had limited tools to motivate and reward influencers consistently, leading to uneven program adoption across regions. - Manual and Delayed Incentive Disbursals
Tracking installations, referrals, and rewards was manual and error-prone, resulting in delays of up to 30 days and frequent reconciliation issues. - Limited Differentiation in a Competitive Market
Competing brands relied on price-based promotions and basic schemes, making it difficult to build emotional loyalty or stand out.
