Pedigree launched new One True Loyalty Program

Last Updated: August 5, 2020By Tags: ,

The PEDIGREE® brand is introducing the One True Loyalty Program – a loyalty program that provides loyalty in the form of a furry best friend. Recently, shelters around the country have seen a tremendous increase in dog adoptions, as people are craving connection and companionship while social distancing. To help encourage more adoptions, the PEDIGREE brand will cover the adoption fees (up to $200 USD) for new pet parents who adopt a dog and purchase two bags of PEDIGREE dog food (15 lbs. or more), starting Saturday, August 1 through October 31, 2020.

The brand and its charitable organization, PEDIGREE Foundation, have a long-standing mission of ending pet homelessness. With this program, they are continuing that mission by helping to support the transition of shelter dogs into pets with loving forever homes.

In a 2019 survey from the Human Animal Bond Research Institute and Mars Petcare, 80% of pet owners said their pet makes them feel less lonely1. It’s this companionship and loyalty that makes our four-legged friends truly unmatched, especially in today’s world of social distancing.

“There are so many loyalty programs out there that take months of purchasing to receive a small reward, but when we think of loyalty, our minds go straight to dogs,” said Melodie Bolin, Marketing Director at Mars Petcare. “Nothing compares to the loyalty of our four-legged friends and the positivity and love they bring to our homes. The One True Loyalty Program is our way of celebrating that one-of-a-kind companionship with a twist on your typical loyalty program, while also furthering our PEDIGREE brand purpose of supporting pet adoption.”

The One True Loyalty Program is a simple offer that brings pet lovers the most valued type of loyalty, with no strings attached – the unconditional love of a dog. Joining the program is simple:

  1. Adopt a dog from a local authorized shelter in the US between August 1 and October 31.
  2. Purchase two bags of PEDIGREE dog food (15 lbs. or more) between August 1 and October 31 and save the receipts.
  3. Visit PEDIGREELoyalty.com to submit your receipts and proof of adoption.
  4. Receive an email approval with a link to select a format for adoption fee reimbursement, via PayPal or physical check.

The One True Loyalty Program launches on the heels of the PEDIGREE brand’s “Dogs on Zoom” initiative, where the brand partnered with shelters across the country to host virtual adoption events to support safe and socially distanced adoptions. With the country continuing to navigate pandemic life, it’s an ideal time to consider adding a four-legged member to the family.

To achieve better sales and profits, most companies could be doing more to cultivate business from their existing customers. However, enthusiasm for customer-retaining strategies must not endanger sound customer-getting efforts. How companies balance the two is the big question. To intensify reaching old customers while still seeking new ones, for many firms, will mean changes in market analysis, planning systems, management incentives, and marketing and/or operations organization. In the rush toward growth, consumer marketers have tended to regard success as stemming from obtaining new customers while unwittingly minimizing the importance of satisfying old ones. It is time for more companies to distinguish between their getting and retaining functions, to assess the balance between them, and to remedy any deficiencies in customer retention. This process requires management to value the potential of current customers and to treat them in special ways to get them to keep coming back. Several major elements should be part of the new marketing mix for customer retention: Product extras Keeping customers frequently requires giving them more than the basic product that initially attracted them. Product extras for individual customers over time can play a sales-expansive role. Reinforcing promotions Product promotion works better when aimed at existing customers. If a marketer knows who these customers are, benefits can be obtained by giving them reinforcing communications. Sales force connections The sales force can play a decisive role in the customer-retention function. At a retail or service counter the salesperson is the focal point of the company's strategy and is the firm to the customer. Post-purchase communication A company must anticipate that some customers will encounter either minor or serious problems after purchasing. If the firm is not ready to hear and correct these difficulties, the customer may not repurchase  or may cancel the the relationship. Whether company or customer is at fault, standby post-purchase activities can be instrumental in saving these customers.
