In 2025, customer loyalty is a key strategic lever for marketing and communications agencies. With the explosion of acquisition costs and ever-increasing competition, companies need to rethink their approach and focus on long-term engagement strategies. The challenge is to maximize Customer Lifetime Value (CLV), while guaranteeing a fluid customer relationship adapted to new consumer expectations.

In this article, we'll look at why customer loyalty is a more profitable growth area than acquisition, what customers' expectations will be in 2024, and how Data Enso tools enable agencies to better understand and anticipate these needs to strengthen consumer loyalty.

Customer loyalty, a more profitable lever than acquisition

The figures speak for themselves: acquiring a new customer costs between 5 and 7 times more than retaining an existing one(Spaag, 2023). An increase of just 5% in the retention rate can boost profits by between 25% and 95%(CRM pour PME, 2023).

What's more, loyal customers are natural brand ambassadors. On average, they spend 2.5 times more than new customers, and are more likely to recommend a company to friends and family(Siècle Digital, 2023). In this way, loyalty becomes a growth lever that maximizes profitability while optimizing the return on investment (ROI) of marketing campaigns.

Today's marketing agencies must support their customers in this strategic transition. Faced with rising advertising costs and saturated digital markets, it is essential to develop high value-added relational strategies, based on the advanced exploitation of customer data and the automation of interactions.

Customer expectations in 2024: personalization, fluidity and commitment

Personalization and data exploitation

Consumers are increasingly demanding the relevance of the messages they receive. 78% of customers prefer to buy from a brand that offers them a personalized experience(Forbes, 2023).

Leveraging customer data enables us to create more engaging experiences by refining product recommendations and tailoring offers to consumers' real needs. Automation and artificial intelligence now make it possible to go even further in behavioral segmentation and predictive analysis.

Fluid, omnichannel customer experience

Customers expect perfect consistency between different communication channels: website, email, social networks, chatbot and customer service. A break in the user experience can lead to a significant drop in engagement. 80% of customers would switch brands in the event of a disappointing experience(PwC, 2023).

Values and social commitment

In 2024, consumers are also sensitive to corporate ethics. 65% of customers prefer to buy from brands that share their values(Harvard Business Review, 2023). Transparency, sustainability and social commitment are becoming major loyalty criteria.
