  • Salesforce Loyalty Management Basics
  • Loyalty Program Pain Points:
  • Separate systems: Organizations often use multiple solutions to track their loyalty members’ activities and maintain their loyalty programs. 
  • Program tracking: Separate systems make it hard, if not impossible, to track customer lifetime value.
  • Personalization: Loyalty programs are most effective when they provide the customer with personalized experiences that are based on the customer’s interactions with the organization. 
  • Audience targeting: Benefits, promotions, and discount vouchers are all time-tested strategies to keep the customer engaged.
  • Timeliness: Organizations also struggle to engage loyalty program members at the right time. A benefit or a promotion is only useful if the customer receives it when they need it.
  • Points management: Also, organizations find it difficult to debit, credit, or expire points based on the millions of customer transactions every day.
  • Salesforce Loyalty Management features:
    • Loyalty Foundation: Create multiple loyalty programs, each with its own set of tier groups, tiers, and currencies. Associate loyalty program member records with existing Contact or Account records.
    • Loyalty Experiences: Associate member benefits with a loyalty program tier to keep customers hooked to your program. When a loyalty program member reaches the tier, the benefits are automatically assigned to the member.
    • Partner Management: Give customers more choices by incorporating partners in your loyalty program ecosystem. With partners, customers can earn or redeem points when they purchase a partner’s products or use their services.  
  • Loyalty Management Permission Set: Provides edit access to Loyalty Management object
  • When initializing a tier group you define three attributes:
    • Tier period is the period after which tier assessment takes place or, to put it another way, the duration for which a newly allotted tier can be retained by a member.
    • Qualifying period is the period after which a member’s qualifying points balance resets to zero.
    • Tier model is an attribute that influences the start date of the qualifying period.
  • Program Currencies:
    • Non-Qualifying Points are based on the traditional currency system and hence can be financially quantified.
    • Qualifying Points count toward a member’s tier status.  
  • Qualifying points can be associated with only one tier group. Though, you can have different types of qualifying points in a tier group.
  • Expiration models:
    • Fixed model: Each non-qualifying point in a member’s balance expires after a fixed period as specified for this point type.
    • Activity model: A member’s entire non-qualifying points balance expires if there’s no member activity for the duration specified for this point type. 
  • Types of vouchers:
    • Fixed Value: Members can use this type of voucher to receive a specific discount amount on a product or service.
    • Discount Percentage: Members can use this type of voucher to receive a specific discount percentage on a product or service.
    • Product or Service: Members can use this type of voucher to purchase a specific product or service.
  • Types of promotions:
    • Standard promotions: These reward customers immediately after they complete an activity.
    • Cumulative promotions: These reward customers after they complete multiple purchases that add up to a certain amount during a specific time period.
  • Data Processing Engine allows you to gather data stored in different objects in your Salesforce org and transform and write back the results to standard or custom objects.
  • Decision Tables provide outcomes for records or values based on specific business rules.
  • Batch Management processes a flow in manageable batches. 
  • Loyalty Member Portal: lets members track their program details including points balance, recent transactions, and tier assignments.
  • Only one loyalty program can be associated with an Experience Cloud site.
