Basecamp Rewards Program
Current Structure
How it works:
- Customers sign up via the mobile app or in-store
- Earn 1 point per $1 spent
- 100 points = Free drink (any size)
- 200 points = Free food item
- Birthday reward: Free drink on your birthday month
Member tiers (launched month 2):
- Trailblazer (0-199 lifetime points): Basic rewards
- Explorer (200-499 lifetime points): +10% bonus points
- Summit (500+ lifetime points): +20% bonus points, early access to new drinks
Current Metrics (as of last month)
| Metric | Current | Target | Status |
|---|---|---|---|
| Total sign-ups | 12,400 | 15,000 | 83% |
| Monthly active users | 2,100 | 8,000 | 26% |
| Avg visits/month (members) | 2.3 | 4.0 | 58% |
| Redemption rate | 18% | 40% | 45% |
| 30-day retention | 31% | 60% | 52% |
The Problem in Plain English
People are signing up, but they're not engaging:
- Only 17% of members have earned any points in the last 30 days
- Most members forget they're even in the program
- The app gets downloaded, used once, then ignored
- Tier progression feels meaningless (no one cares about "Explorer" status)
- Redemptions are low because people don't accumulate enough points
What We've Tried (and what happened)
- Double points weekends - Slight uptick during promotion, back to normal after
- Push notifications - Low open rates (8%), some users turned off notifications
- Email campaigns - 12% open rate, 2% click-through (industry average is 15%/3%)
- Tier celebration emails - No measurable impact on behavior
Key Stakeholders
- Your Manager (Dana) - Marketing Director, supportive but under pressure from above
- Leadership Team - CFO skeptical of ROI, CEO wants "innovation" but unclear on specifics
- Store Managers - Frustrated with current program, want something their baristas can actually talk about
- Customers - Based on feedback, they find the program "fine but forgettable"
Budget & Constraints
- No additional budget for the program (use what exists)
- Mobile app can be updated (dev team has bandwidth)
- Can launch new campaigns/promotions
- Can add new features within the existing app framework
- Cannot change the fundamental points structure (legal/accounting reasons)
