If you’re a manufacturer or distributor selling to retailers, directly or indirectly, a tailored retailer rewards program can be your key to building stronger channel partner relationships, driving sales, and increasing profits.
Here’s how a strategic retailer rewards program can help you meet both short-term and long-term sales goals while keeping your brand top of mind with your retailer customers.
1. Keep Your Brand Top of Mind
With a customized rewards program, you keep your brand at the front of your retailers' minds. Retailers earn valuable rewards (their gain) simply by purchasing and promoting your products, which helps you achieve your sales targets (your gain). This continuous engagement keeps your brand preferred over competitors.
2. Drive Sales Momentum Across Your Channel
Focus on driving sales by using a retailer rewards program that encourages retailers to choose and promote your products over others. By giving them compelling reasons to prefer your brand, you build momentum that boosts sales across your entire distribution network.
3. Incentivize More Than Just Repeat Purchases
A retailer loyalty program can push retailers to do more than just reorder. By offering targeted incentives, you encourage them to:
- Increase their annual purchases
- Try new product lines
- Expand the range of categories they buy
- Increase their average transaction size
- Push more online orders
- Improve their product knowledge
Design your rewards program to inspire behaviors that align with your business objectives.
4. Motivate All Retailers with Tailored Rewards
To build loyalty and encourage growth across your entire retailer network, offer a wide variety of rewards that appeal to different preferences.
Tada’s extensive catalog, featuring over 1,000 reward options, lets you create a retailer loyalty program that resonates with everyone in your network.
5. Optimize Your Program for Maximum Impact
Tada regularly helps clients update and refine outdated reward programs to boost their effectiveness and ROI. Often, existing programs are limited by reward options that are either too narrow or too costly.
For example, if your retailer reward program offers an annual trip to your largest retailers only, you may be missing opportunities with smaller retailers who have significant growth potential.
Similarly, while rebate programs based on total sales can work, research shows that non-cash rewards—like merchandise, gift cards, and experiential travel—often deliver better results at a lower cost.
Update your program to include a broader range of incentives that enhance results, reduce costs, and turn your rewards program into a powerful profit center.
