What's the difference between a loyalty partner and a loyalty vendor? 💡 A loyalty partner ingrains themself into your business, challenges you to innovate, and guarantees business outcomes. When Yesway was looking for a new loyalty provider, they wanted a true partner. We sat down with Michael Caldwell to chat about the success they've seen since relaunching Yesway & Allsup's Rewards.  📽 Watch the video below to learn how PAR Retail's loyalty innovation, program management, and easy member enrollment achieved business outcomes for Yesway.

It’s not very often I brag or boast. In fact many would say quite the opposite. However, something happened yesterday that I just feel is something that we at S2M should be very proud about. Due to the nature of our work we can’t mention client names or how much we’ve recovered for them. It’s just the nature of our industry. Believe me, after 18 years of S2M, if we could then the list of clients over the years would be a very impressive list of household names, large corporates and impressive organisations that have benefitted from our findings. Then yesterday, one of the uk’s top ten retailers, asked us to roll on with our services for the tenth year in a row. Proving to me that S2M is providing a needed service with successful results while maintaining its high level of customer service. This I feel is something I should, no, WE should celebrate and be proud of. So well done everyone at S2M and continue doing what you do at the level you are doing it. A simply fantastic team. #celebrateachievements #customerservice #resultsdrivenindustry #profitrecovery

New Post: Chain Pharmacy Closures Providing Opportunities for Independent Businesses - https://lnkd.in/g6wmg7aZ - For years, independent pharmacies have struggled to compete with large chains. But now, a series of closures in some areas are opening up new opportunities for small businesses to thrive in this space again. For example, Rite Aid announced the closure of most of its locations in Michigan and Ohio last month, as part of the company’s Chapter 11 bankruptcy restructuring plan. Many customers located in cities and suburbs are likely to simply take their business to other large chains like Walgreens and CVS. But in many rural areas, Rite Aid was the only large chain pharmacy in town. Steve Kennedy, owner of The Anderson Pharmacy in Bay City, Michigan, recently told local news outlet ABC 12, “We’ve already been approached by quite a few of the Rite Aid customers looking for a place to go. This is obviously going to make us a little busier.” Kennedy continued, “There’s going to be issues, especially in the rural areas where there was only a Rite Aid, that is going to be an issue. I don’t know what is going to happen in those situations. People are going to have to drive or maybe mail orders more.” In many cases, Rite Aid is automatically transferring existing prescriptions to other nearby pharmacies. But customers are still free to move their accounts to anywhere they choose. This could provide opportunities for existing pharmacies to grow their customer base quickly. For example, some might offer discounts or promotions for customers who transfer their prescriptions. In many cases, simply being open and providing fast, friendly service may be enough to create more loyal customers. This change may also provide openings for those who are interested in opening new businesses in these rural communities. Pharmacies are always in demand, especially in areas where customers are left driving for miles to get their medications. And these stores also provide tons of essential items like food and personal care products that customers value.
