Tantangan

As the RTD cocktails brand scaled distribution, consumer engagement became increasingly fragmented across retail, online, and experiential channels. One-time purchases dominated, while emotional loyalty and repeat buying behavior remained inconsistent.

Discount-led promotions failed to build long-term brand affinity, and the brand lacked a unified system to recognize and reward loyal consumers meaningfully.

Key challenges included:

• Low repeat purchase rates: Consumers tried the product once but lacked incentives to repurchase regularly.

• Limited engagement beyond purchase: Tastings, distillery visits, and pop-up experiences were underutilized as loyalty touchpoints.

• Minimal referral-driven growth: Loyal consumers had no structured motivation to recommend the brand to friends or family.

• Lack of exclusivity for top consumers: Premium buyers and superfans were not differentiated or rewarded with exclusive access.

• Low organic social advocacy: Consumers shared brand moments inconsistently, limiting authentic social reach.

• Difficulty managing consumer loyalty at scale: Manual reward fulfillment and disconnected systems made loyalty operations inefficient.

Personas involved

• Consumers & Brand Loyalists: Earn rewards for purchases, referrals, tastings, social engagement, and club participation—building emotional connection with the brand.

• Consumer Marketing Teams: Design loyalty campaigns, experiential rewards, referral programs, and limited-edition access strategies.

• Brand Experience & Events Teams: Manage tasting room incentives, pop-up activations, tours, and experiential engagement rewards.

• Growth & Digital Teams: Drive repeat purchases, referral programs, and social engagement initiatives.

• Rewards & Partnerships Teams: Curate experiential rewards, merchandise, vouchers, and premium perks.
