Loyalty cards used to be a reward for regular customers. I wouldn't call them a gimmick, but it seems like they are more designed as a cash grab, to get you in the door as often as possible.
I don't use them to get freebies as such. More to let the girls know that I have been there a couple of times before.I usually leave it in plain view on top of my clothes.
I will treat loyalty programs with a grain of salt
If I am offered a discount for the next punt, I will take it, but too often loyalty with one business makes them take you for granted
I have had one bait and switch recently after being offered a 'discount', and will not trust 'loyalty' discounts again
Once more, loyalty to me seems to imply the business has you by the balls
Im happy to be proven wrong by satisfied customers
I visited an establishment for the first time in early September and have been going there once a week since. I frequent this place because I like it there, not because of any incentive to fill up my loyalty card. If the card wasn't offered, I would still go there.
My loyalty card with them filled up last week and so this week I am due to pick up my freebie. I shall let you know how I go.
Neither do I. 2 months is way too short, especially when 10 stamps are needed for a freebie. Maybe by the 10th stamp, it's meeting her outside for a freebie? LOLOriginally Posted by wunderboy
I know this is old news but I still wanna ramble!
Really can't understand why the loyalty card is only available for 2 months. Tried hard to get there but still failed.
Not sure about you guys but I probably only get one massage a week which means I only get 8 in 2 months.
I sincerely request the management to extend it to 3 months minimum.

How many punters frequent a shop more than once a week? Of those people, how many go to the same shop more than once a week? That is what the loyalty cards are trying to reward .... loyalty.
I receive regular sms from some businesses, and I am rewarded from time to time with a discount
I try to work closely with the managers, I am very fair and polite, and despite this from time to time management lets you down, sometimes not giving the complete truth about the lady that has been booked.
Thats business, and I roll with the punches graciously, as long as I avoid the absolute dud punt
I am reliable with my bookings, I always turn up as scheduled, and on time
I also dont ask for an extension of time during a P2P experience, unlike some of my colleagues, and therefore stuffup the next punter's booking
In my young P2P career, I exclusively deal with businesses that post a regular roster, at least every 2-3 days
Otherwise I do not trust what I am going to get when I arrive
But a discount program is something I am wary of. I am not going to commit to any business.
There is just too many good businesses out there today, who are very responsive to our community's needs
You're not from Brisbane are you? lol
No, popeye96. Im from Sydney
The descriptions I write are from a Sydney perspective
I have no direct experience with Brisbane - but my highest regards to my northerly neighbours from the Sunshine State !
Wow! A massage parlour responding to the community's needs? Sounds very....political.
Responding to the community's needs would include no double-booking, massaging through to the very end, clean towels, hard=hard/medium=medium, aircon not at -4 degrees, selective use of quality baby oil
Of course not all places are like this, but just wondering what a pollie would say if they were 'representing' us.
Yes. Shock horror
Businesses can be responsive to the communities needs
But by 'community' I was referring to members of this forum ; )
Hey heatseeker. How about having a quiet word to some of those Sydney shop owners and see if they would open some shops in Brisbane. As you know we are getting fucked in price and service up here, and not in a good way. My guess is they would make a killing.
I hear you my friend, popeye96
You flatter me, Im a new member here (but already a senior member due to my involvement)
Also, businesses do read these posts - Im sure a lot are keen to improve their revenues, and quality of clientele
Maybe there are stricter council laws in Brisbane my friend, that may be part of the issue, Im not sure
I can PM you if you like regarding what I would do if I was in Brisbane.
Regards
Yes you are correct about the laws up here. I think they are about to issue new car number plates and replace Queensland - The Sunshine State, with Queensland - The Nazi State.
You guys are getting fucked every which way but not with a pussy ...
Yes. Looking at CLs recent posts, he is getting offered a lot of pussy for his new service
Had my 11th massage in 11 weeks today. Was just like all the others, except it was free
