"Beyonde" is a customer experience consulting firm based in Sydney Australia, with a single-minded focus on identifying, evaluating, and implementing the best global solutions to create compelling loyalty concepts.

This episode features the latest customer strategy and inspiring loyalty propositions that the Beyonde team are exploring.

Listen to hear Managing Director Simon Rowles talks about data – no longer as “the new oil” but as an even more powerful and profitable asset now that it is becoming increasingly share-able even despite our increasingly restrictive privacy laws worldwide.

We also hear some incredible statistics around a way to drive customer or employee loyalty using the power of fractional ownership, as well as increasingly important option to allow loyalty members to aggregate their rewards across programmes.
