IS YOUR REWARDS PROGRAM FIT FOR A PROFITABLE 2026?

The Drop presents an interactive loyalty and rewards program workshop by Adam Posner of The Point of Loyalty.

Loyalty programs, rewards and membership programs, VIP programs, discount clubs … you name it, they are here, there and everywhere!

As the end of 2025 rolls in, this workshop is a perfect opportunity to be a 2026 planning session with your team, following a proven process for loyalty and rewards program success with direct actions to implement. Plan to make your program more profitable in 2026 and to challenge the same-same and status quo of programs.

Adam Posner will deliver a practical, punchy workshop with a difference to help you future-proof your venue’s rewards program – a powerful member engagement asset.

Learn how to evolve your program to be more meaningful and desirable for your members and profitable and sustainable for your venue.

Whatever the size of your venue, this workshop is perfect for you and your team to plan where to make a step-change to your program in 2026 (and gain some quick wins in 2025)

This workshop will provide insights on:

  • The dynamic and evolving loyalty and rewards program landscape.
  • How to move members beyond the transaction to create a community of connected members.
  • The nine currencies program members care about.
  • The three variables for optimising the program experience and where the friction points are for your members.
  • The four communication pillars to manage and optimise the impact of your member communications.
  • How to ensure your program provides a profitable return on investment for your venue.

Testimonial

“Thanks for a great course – it was the best one I have been to in a long time. The most relevant insight I gained was to build an overarching vision and strategy for our rewards program and to ask at each step – am I achieving that goal?”

Allyson Pascoe – Group Gaming Manager, North Lakes Sports Club
