How subscription brands acquire loyal customers

Make your brand stand out in the crowded subscription marketplace with personalized, gated offers that celebrate a person’s identity, increase engagement, and drive sign-ups. With SheerID’s Identity Marketing Platform, you can deliver high-value offers to a specific consumer tribe - groups of people who share deep-seated attributes such as life stage (students, seniors), occupation (teachers), affiliation (the military community, nurses, or first responders), and more.

Did you know? 84% of teachers agree that being a teacher is a more important aspect of their identity than religion or family roles. So by speaking to customers in a way that truly resonates, you can make an emotional connection that will lower acquisition costs through word of mouth marketing, and encourage repeat purchases.

Increase Lifetime Value

Identity Marketing brings inherent value to your offer by making it truly exclusive to certain members of a consumer tribe. Whether that consumer tribe is students, teachers, military, etc., people are more likely to stick with a brand that sees their uniqueness as individuals and rewards them for their loyalty.

  • 3 in 4 students, teachers, and military members prefer to shop with brands that provide exclusive promotions.

Avoid Fraudulent Offer Redemption

Subscription brands driving success with key consumer tribes are using high value offers that are very desirable, making them more subject to fraudulent redemption. SheerID’s verification ensures that only eligible consumers can redeem the offer, so you can be assured that your marketing dollars are winning over your intended audience.
