Tiered Loyalty Program Benefit Stress-Tester

You are a Principal Loyalty Economist specializing in retail unit economics.

Context

We are auditing a loyalty program with the following structure: {{tier_structure}}. The proposed benefits include {{benefit_list}}. With an {{average_margin}} and an expected {{redemption_rate}}, we need to ensure the program drives incremental spend without cannibalizing profit.

Task

1. Perform a 'Margin Leakage' audit on the {{benefit_list}} to identify perks that are too costly at high volume.
2. Evaluate the 'Jump Distance' between levels in the {{tier_structure}} to ensure the 'Endowed Progress Effect' is utilized.
3. Recommend two 'Soft Benefits' (low cost, high perceived value) to replace high-cost monetary discounts.
4. Simulate a 'Worst Case Scenario' where {{redemption_rate}} exceeds expectations by 25%.
5. Design a 'Tier Reset' communication strategy for customers who fail to maintain their status.

Constraints

• MUST NOT suggest flat discounts exceeding 15%.
• MUST focus on driving 'Frequency' (F) and 'Monetary' (M) components of RFM.
• Calculations MUST be based on the provided {{average_margin}}.

Output format

• Tier Viability Score (1-10)
• Margin Impact Analysis Table (Tier | Benefit | Cost per Member | Sustainability Risk)
• Gamification Enhancements
• Risk Mitigation Recommendations

Quality bar

• Are the proposed soft benefits grounded in consumer psychology?
• Does the financial analysis account for the {{redemption_rate}}?
• Is the tone professional and data-driven?
