O que é o Loop de Fidelidade?  

The Loyalty Loop is the stage of a customer journey where satisfied customers make another purchase without considering other alternatives. It is done by developing and maintaining a continuous interaction with the existing customer base to create recurring business and build brand loyalty.

McKinsey made the term popular in 2009, after analyzing the purchase decisions of nearly 20,000 consumers.

The loop seeks to simplify the experience of returning customers and promote ongoing engagement with the business by offering a smooth path. To maintain continued consumer happiness and engagement, maintaining the loyalty loop necessitates constant work and modification.

The Loyalty Loop works by making the post-purchase experience the beginning of a follow up purchase:

• Start the process in the ‘consider’ phase, when a customer first expresses an interest.
• Move the customer through evaluation and purchase to the post-purchase experience.
• To solidify customer attachment and encourage repeat business, develop personalized experiences in the post-purchase phase that fit with individual customer interests and preferences.
• On the next purchase, a satisfied customer can then skip the evaluation process and makes another purchase which creates a loop.

One way to keep customers interested after they make a purchase, is to provide them with exclusive access to new items and events, personalized content, and loyalty points or discounts.

The Loyalty Loop is meant to build an emotional bond with your customers; encourage advocacy and loyalty by consistently exceeding their expectations and providing value.

Customizing the Loyalty Loop will give businesses information on customer behavior and help them decide how to ensure they are satisfied users.

By mapping the customer journey, businesses can collect data from customers about their expectations and behavior, which give feedback on the customer experience and how to improve it which are important when making business decisions. To give one example, businesses can monitor how customers respond to marketing efforts and loyalty programs and use those details to make improvements.
