Frequently Asked Questions

FAQs

If your question is not answered here, please contact us.

  • How does the Loyalty Forum operate? 

    We hold four in-person meetings per year and a number of interim online meetings on topics of particular interest to forum members. 

  • Where are the meetings held? 

    Forum meetings are typically hosted by member companies at their headquarters. We hold two events in North America and two in Europe each year.  

  • How are the meetings structured? 

    Based on feedback from our members, our four primary meetings typically take place over the course of two days with the total meeting time covering a day and a half. 

     

    Meeting content is based on input from our members. Typically, we spend a fair amount of time discussing our host company, including a session with the CEO, a presentation from the forum member, and a frontline panel. There are two or three best-practices presentations by Forum members, a presentation by a Bain partner from the Customer Strategy & Marketing practice, and a significant amount of moderated discussion on a plethora of customer-growth focused topics. Discussions focus on best practices; how to listen, learn, and act on feedback; advanced practices to personalize and deepen individual customer engagement; and many related topics.  

     

    Attendees have many opportunities to interact, both during the course of the meeting and informally during breaks and over cocktails and dinner. 

  • Which companies are Loyalty Forum members? 

    Companies that are focused on customer value, CX transformation, and CX as a function are great fits for the Loyalty Forum, regardless of how they may be using NPS as a metric.
