Nearly half of active-duty soldiers are under 25 years old, 18% of AC commissioned officers are female, and more than half of veterans are over 65. That seems like a disparate group, but serving in the military brings them together, and they all like when companies honor their service. Nearly 75% of the military said they actively seek out brands that offer military discounts, and more than 60% said they would shop at those brands more often.
Create Customer Loyalty with Identity Marketing
Give your customers special offers that will make them come back again and again.
Grow Customer Lifetime Value by Rewarding What Makes Them Special
With identity marketing, you acquire consumer communities with special offers based on meaningful attributes, like their life stage (students), occupation (teacher), or affiliation (the military). This new form of personalized marketing gives you everything you need to stand out in their minds and keep them coming back.
Make an Emotional Connection
Identity marketing honors who people are and the groups they belong to. This engages customers deeply—students feel excited, teachers feel appreciated, military members feel supported—and creates an attachment that deepens over time.
Build Brand Trust
Consumers are tired of being bombarded with ads they don’t want. With identity marketing, you invite a select group of customers to enjoy an exclusive offer and they opt-in to receive it. This respects consumers’ privacy and establishes trust in your brand that makes them want to engage with you more.
Collect Zero-Party Data to Re-Engage Customers
The data you collect from identity marketing campaigns is rich because it comes directly from your customers. It also gives you insight into their lives—nurses are overworked, military families move a lot—that you can combine with other data to create experiences that are even more personalized.
Create Black Fridays Year-Round
You can spur re-engagement by running campaigns during holidays that celebrate your consumer communities, like Grandparents Day and National Nurses Week. This creates ongoing revenue spikes and endears customers to your brand by making them feel special.
Harness the Power of Cause Marketing
When you go beyond a discount and create programs that support your consumer communities, you win their affection and the goodwill of everyone who cares about them.T-Mobile’s support of military families and veterans has engendered tremendous loyalty and made it a brand leader for that community.
Boost Your Loyalty Program
You can integrate SheerID into your loyalty program and use identity marketing to attract, enroll, and nurture your best customers. When Lowe’s tied its military offer to its MyLowe’s program, the company saw 4x engagement and doubled the number of in-store visits.
Michaels
“Integrating SheerID’s Identity Marketing Platform with Michaels Rewards helped us bring in 200,000 new seniors, teachers, and military customers.”
Tuft & Needle
“Identity marketing provides opportunity for personalization to individuals who have purchased from us, maybe giving them additional discounts for coming back and buying a second product, or even just giving them relevant content to who they are and what they care about.”
