5 good reasons to start a loyalty and rewards program on your Shopify store
Stricter privacy laws and the ban on third-party coookies make targeted marketing both difficult and expensive.
Today a customer can go in and out of the store and be completely “invisible”. It doesn’t have to be that way, however – and the future-oriented companies won’t let it happen. By collecting customer data in your own marketing channel in a way that customers both approve and like, you can effectively avoid the problem. An “invisible” customer becomes “visible”, a person you get to know and can communicate with.
Diller is integrated with a number of POS checkout systems and web stores, which means you have a ready-made loyalty program that’s fully integrated with what you already are using.
By recruiting members to the loyalty program, you automatically get GDPR privacy consent and can start the customer dialogue in your own market channel – a loyalty platform that you own. You are constantly collecting new customer data and can tailor your communication. You no longer need expensive marketing on Google, Facebook or Instagram.
Diller makes it a lot easier and cheaper to get customers back into your store or web store. When you have a returning customer, your sale increases without spending money on marketing. You are increasing your sales while at the same time collecting data and gaining invaluable insight into what your customers want today, tomorrow and the day after. It’s just a matter of getting started!
Good marketing technology can be one of the greatest assets to a business, but often such tools are used only by the larger players. The tools available are both expensive and require a lot of labor to keep programs running.
Having a good loyalty program creates a huge advantage for the larger chains, and as a result this makes it even harder for the smaller and newer businesses to attract customers. The smaller stores fall behind, since they don’t have the opportunity to compete on equal terms.
A shopper’s buying decision is often influenced by broadly marketed marketing campaigns from the larger stores and chains. They have marketing budgets that simply doesn’t work for the SMB market.
But who doesn’t love their local mom & pop flower store or the bakery at the corner? It seems unfair that small and beloved stores are prevented from competing with the bigger ones. Diller decided to do something about this! We saw the struggle the SMB market is facing, and how the larger chains just grew bigger and took more market share.
The idea of Diller is to make modern technology available for every type of store out there – physical and online. Our mission is to provide a seamless, automated marketing and loyalty platform that’s affordable and easy to use. Finally the smaller stores can start rewarding their customer and build their own member base. It’s only fair, right?
Diller allows the store to build a customized loyalty program that is tailormade to how the business operates, be it with referrals, member level, coupons, discounts, stamp cards, or just spreading the word of what’s going on to boost customer retention and revenue.
The stores are now offered a tool that gives access to purchase data, customer insights, and practices to track and boost store activity.
Most importantly, we recognize that the SMB market needs easy-to-use and intuitive tools to save time. Therefore, features such as marketing automation, preset segments, and SMS campaigns are key elements of the software.
Talk to one of our experts to discuss how Diller can help your store grow.
How can you attract new customers and keep them coming back? Most business owners and managers have a good understand of the problem, but very few take the right actions.
To attract your customer to come back for more, you need to know your customers – really know them. Without data-driven insights about customer purchase patterns and their behavior and preferences, it’s hard to assume who the shoppers are.
It’s even harder to know what they want – and almost impossible to create marketing and sales campaigns that actually work, without spending a fortune. And of course, your customers may quite easily slip over to your competition.
It’s no longer enough to run promotions and campaigns in order to get shoppers to turn up at your store. The pandemic accelerated business to offer their products on an eCommerce site. Number of online stores boomed making brands and products even more available for the consumer.
With increased online offerings, how do you secure that customer choose your store? You need to have a genuine connection with your customers. To make your store robust against competitors, you need to focus on making the “invisible” customer “visible”, both in-store and online.
But how? By implementing the Diller loyalty platform to your store and eCommerce site, you will boost customer retention. Diller is a comprehensive marketing tool that captures customer data, allowing you to send relevant communication flows that maximize sales conversion.
Diller’s loyalty technology boosts customer retention and is a very easy-to-use solution to create effective campaigns.
With Diller your business will own the customer’s data and have a powerful tool that knows precisely how to trigger a customer to come back again, and again, and again. Owning the customer’s data also means you have your own marketing channel, which gives you a chance to accelerate your customer’s needs. This allows you to trigger new customers with welcome coupons, turn your best customers into organic brand ambassadors by rewarding referrals, or sending personalized product recommendations directly to your member base via text and email.
Customer data is the gold mine to increase competitiveness and make the customers come back for more.

There is no secret that competition among online retailers is intensifying, making it harder than ever to attract new customers. The large spike in the number of online retailers during Covid rapidly changed customers behavior, driving them to shop online.
That said, new trends show that shoppers are returning to the physical stores. This pinpoints the fact that it’s not enough for retailers to succeed only with new customers. They need to make customer retention and loyalty a primary focus as well.
How do you attract new customers and retain the ones you already gained? The old mentality of “doing it all by yourself” is way outdated. In order to make your business succeed today and in the future, you need to partner up with experts in order to win.
Retailers pair up with third-party solutions as for instance payment, pickup services, and eCommerce sites in order to operate a sustainable business. The beauty of technology today is that SaaS helps business owners create a tailored setup, allowing them to seamlessly integrate the necessary tools to optimize their eCommerce business.
In order to free up time and work more efficiently, business owners need to trust the third-party experts, and Diller is an excellent integration to boost customer retention and grow the business. According to our customer surveys, Diller is more than just another integration, it’s a valued partnership.

Did you get satisfactory information about Diller during the sales process?
Loyalty is not a program to be administered. Loyalty is a feeling.
There is a difference between repeat business and loyalty. Repeat business simply means that someone transacts with you multiple times. You likely offer them some sort of convenience – price, location, selection.
Loyalty is different. It’s a willingness to go out of one’s way to choose to do business with you. When we are loyal we are willing to suffer some sort of inconvenience to continue to do business with you.
