When trying to grow business, a natural tendency is to seek a strategy that finds more new customers. We see it all the time in the strategies employed by Triton Loyalty partners. They focus on increasing the numbers in the database. On the theory of increasing the number of people in your universe will lead to success. It seems logical, but often causes unintended damage.
Seth Godin’s blog recently shared a hierarchy of value for reaching consumers. He explains that focusing on turning strangers into friends of your brand is not only difficult, but likely to fail for a couple of key reasons:

Release Notes – 5/18/10
A new version of our software was released on the 18th. This release contains both fixes and enhancements. Here’s what’s been updated in this release…
Enhancement: Microsoft’s IE8 browser, which is used by over 70% of users visits our sites, includes a great new feature called Web Slices. A Web Slice enable users to stay up-to-date on certain web content. This type of feature can be a very powerful method of increasing site visits and overall member activity. To take advantage of this feature, in StickyFish, we have created a Web Slice for point earning opportunities and a Web Slice for point redemption opportunities. In Fan Club, we created slices for Surveys and for Contests. A user can select these Slices when they visit the site, and it will add the Slice into their favorites bar and then alert them every time new content is launched (the slice will highlight up in their favorites bar when new content is available). To add a web slice from your StickyFish or Fan Club site, visit your site using IE8, then roll over one of the Points, Prizes, or Survey marquees in the left or right column of your site. A green Web Slice icon will appear to the left of the marquee when you roll over it. Click this icon, and then add the slice. The slice will now appear in your favorites bar. To learn more about web slices in general, visit this link: http://www.microsoft.com/windows/internet-explorer/features/easier.aspx

Yesterday morning at around 10:20 am EDT, we experienced an interruption in service lasting approximately 15-20 minutes. During this time period both the consumer sites and your administration site were unavailable.
This interruption was a result of a network connectivity issue that impacted several other websites and service providers hosted at our datacenter. The issue was unrelated to our applications and systems, but briefly cut off access to our sites nonetheless. We are still waiting on our datacenter to clarify the root cause of the issue on their end, and to provide insight as to how this type of interruption can be avoided in the future.
We apologize for any inconvenience this interruption may have caused. We know that any interruption is unacceptable, and we will make the adjustments necessary to minimize future disruption. If you have any questions or concerns related to this outage that you would like to discuss further, please do not hesitate to contact me.
