LOYALTY IS AN EMOTION
A crowd is a tribe without a leader.
A crowd is a tribe without communication.
Most organisations spend their time marketing the crowd.
Smart organisations assemble the tribe.

and culture of your
brand and people
Creating a
capability that
evolves with your
customers over

ITERATE
• Not all customers are created equal. Avoid over-
investing by being all things to all people
• Value is variable. Customers value more than money.
Successful programs depend on understanding the right levers
• Experience matters. Moments of connection and
relevance create habits that drive repeat behavior
• Test, learn, repeat. Design for iterative tests and take
advantage of test data for continuous delivery and refinement
