Tadaโ€™s post on using ๐–๐ก๐š๐ญ๐ฌ๐€๐ฉ๐ฉ ๐Ÿ๐จ๐ซ ๐ฅ๐จ๐ฒ๐š๐ฅ๐ญ๐ฒ & ๐ซ๐ž-๐ž๐ง๐ ๐š๐ ๐ž๐ฆ๐ž๐ง๐ญ underscores a critical truth: reactivating lost customers isnโ€™t about blasting emails or ads โ€” itโ€™s about using a channel your customers live in, with real relevance and immediacy.

But thereโ€™s a trap many businesses fall into: thinking loyalty is just about picking software. Itโ€™s not. Itโ€™s a mindset, a strategy, and a data engine.

Hereโ€™s what Tada shows us (and what Iโ€™ve seen in the field):

๐Ÿ‘ ๐–๐ก๐š๐ญ ๐ฐ๐จ๐ซ๐ค๐ฌ (๐Ÿ๐ซ๐จ๐ฆ ๐“๐š๐๐šโ€™๐ฌ ๐š๐ฉ๐ฉ๐ซ๐จ๐š๐œ๐ก):

โžก๏ธ Send personalized WhatsApp messages to customers whose engagement is declining (e.g. โ€œWe miss you โ€” hereโ€™s a welcome-back voucherโ€).
โžก๏ธ Trigger re-engagement via time-sensitive offers, restock alerts, or relevant product suggestions
โžก๏ธ Use โ€œwe fixed itโ€ messaging โ€” acknowledge past complaints, show you acted, and invite back with a reward
โžก๏ธ Make loyalty live in chat โ€” point updates, tier upgrades, redemption reminders โ€” all within WhatsApp. No extra app needed.

These tactics are powerful โ€” but only when they sit on a strong foundation.

๐Ÿšง ๐–๐ก๐ฒ ๐ฆ๐š๐ง๐ฒ ๐ฅ๐จ๐ฒ๐š๐ฅ๐ญ๐ฒ ๐ฉ๐ซ๐จ๐ ๐ซ๐š๐ฆ๐ฌ ๐Ÿ๐š๐ข๐ฅ

โŒ They start with โ€œWhich software?โ€ instead of โ€œWhich customer journey?โ€
โŒ They reward only transactions, not behaviors or emotions
โŒ They ignore data: whoโ€™s churning, how, and why
โŒ They lack a long-term plan โ€” no layering of engagement, surprise & delight, or feedback loops

When I consult with B2B, D2C, or hybrid businesses, I focus on ๐›๐ฎ๐ข๐ฅ๐๐ข๐ง๐  ๐ฅ๐จ๐ฒ๐š๐ฅ๐ญ๐ฒ ๐ž๐œ๐จ๐ฌ๐ฒ๐ฌ๐ญ๐ž๐ฆ๐ฌ, not point systems.
