Differentiate your business from your competitors


Distributors can take advantage of our advanced data-driven B2B loyalty platform to introduce an innovative spin on the traditional year-end cash rebate formula used by so many companies.

Whether you prefer a points-based program structure or chose our Intelligent Cash Rebate Program™, a customer rewards program from Lift & Shift Loyalty applies analytics to your own historical sales data to develop personalized rewards program goals and rules for each customer. This ensures your program is highly engaging for your customers and helps you stand out from the competition, driving customer retention, new customer acquisition and year-over-year account growth.

We work with distributors to ensure you introduce the right type of program for your category, organizational needs and customer goals.

Unlock hidden sales potential with advanced data-driven analytics


Lift & Shift will work with you to unlock your hidden channel sales potential using our advanced data-driven analytics to evaluate the customer journey and drive incremental purchasing, filling your purchasing gaps and promoting strategic sales goals.
Imagine the benefits of monitoring your customer purchase patterns and identifying who is buying three of your top five products. We can then develop new income streams with a personalized product offering to automatically send them a reward offer incentivizing them to purchase the other two items.

Grow your bottom line


Performance-based reward offers ensure optimal program ROI. If your customers keep and increase their value to you, they earn rewards at a rate that makes sense based on each sales scenario or product margin. A sales growth-based program can pay for itself.

Fully customized programs


We build and manage a tailor-made loyalty program using our proprietary technology platform to quickly and cost-effectively create a customized B2B rewards program that addresses all your sales goals, leaving you with more time to concentrate on your business. 

Your automated sales partner


While your sales team directs most of its attention to your top 20% largest customers, let your customer loyalty program help you focus on the bottom 80% small-medium sized accounts who represent an incredible opportunity for growth. A Lift & Shift loyalty program can help develop the unrealized sales potential from those accounts. 

The regular program communication acts as your automated sales resource, providing a consistent, open channel to promote relevant and attractive targeted offers, in exchange for rewards. Let a rewards program boost the total spending for your smaller accounts.

Create added customer value by partnering with suppliers to fund bonus offers

Strengthen your B2B program appeal with your customers and build stronger relationships with your vendors and suppliers looking to market directly with your customers by adding vendor-funded, performance-based product bonus offers to your customer loyalty program.
The days of asking vendors to sponsor a golf tournament or luncheon to gain visibility (and maybe added sales) with your customers are over. In today's competitive environment, vendors demand data-driven solutions with proven performance. 
As a distributor, you play a pivotal role between your vendor and customer communities. Let Lift & Shift's powerful analytics engine tap into your sales data and empower your vendors to target your customers with reward offers that are based on performance. 
It creates a scenario where everyone wins - your customers receive valuable targeted bonus offers based on their purchasing history, your vendors generate increased sales and grow their business, or they don't pay for reward costs and you benefit from increased sales and happier customers and vendors.

Customize your program to your target audience


As a distributor, you deal with a number of important stakeholders every day - your customers, your customers' sales and counter staff, your inside sales team, and your field sales. Each group plays an important role in your business and your rewards program can be customized specifically to address the needs and goals you have for each group.

When it comes to rewards programs, one size doesn’t fit all. Lift & Shift works with you to customize your rewards program to take this into consideration. We work with you to identify the groups you want to influence and then build offer structures tied to the goals you have for each group, so customers are rewarded for buying, sales reps are rewarded for selling and you are rewarded by having a great program that works hard for you with all your different stakeholder groups.

Distributor Customer Rewards Program FAQs

  • How do we build a loyalty program for distributors’ customers?

    Distributors are ideally suited to leverage the many sales-building benefits a well-structured and managed B2B customer reward program can offer. It begins with using the distributor’s customer sales info to set the program rules. It starts with a modest base offer for customer retention, married with year-over-year growth tiers to get customers to direct more spending to our distributor clients. We can add limited-time bonus offers from any of the distributor’s vendors to do this.


    Lift & Shift offers a state-of-the-art, data-driven B2B loyalty platform to facilitate all of the above. We collaborate closely with you to create a loyalty program that aligns with your industry category, organizational requisites, and customer objectives. Our platform employs analytics to sift through your past sales data, allowing us to create a reward program individually tailored to each of your customers. This targeted approach engages program participants effectively and provides you with a competitive advantage, facilitating customer retention, attracting new customers, and fostering year-over-year account growth.


  • How does the Distributor Customer Rewards Program work?

    The program is designed to reward your customers when they make recurring, repeat and new purchases from you. The program serves as an automated extension of your sales efforts, as a consistent and targeted communication channel to promote personalized incentives to your customers. In return for their purchases, program participants earn points, which can be redeemed for a wide array of rewards. This strategy is particularly effective for increasing the share of total spending you receive from your participating customers, as they direct more of their available spending to you and away from other vendors.

  • What rewards are available through the program?

    The rewards offered in a loyalty program are a vital component of engaging and motivating program participants. A diverse rewards portfolio is key to keeping your program appealing to everyone. Our programs include a diverse range of gift cards, merchandise, events, travel and experiential adventures to choose from, to which we can add your own reward items - such as account credits, private label goods, free shipping, company swag, or inclusion in a customer event or trip. 

  • Do my earned points ever expire, or do they roll over from year to year?

    It depends on the program. Typically, Lift & Shift guides to our clients on best practices pertaining to the use of point expirations. Ideally, if a customer is engaged, buying goods and services and earning points, the points should not expire as many customers like to accumulate points for “big ticket” reward items – like trips or expensive merchandise. In instances where a customer might have slowed purchasing, the customer’s existing point balance and/or bonus points can be used to re-engage the customer and encourage the “next” purchase. Ultimately, if the customer continues to not purchase, we typically include a sunset clause in the program Terms & Conditions, where points expire if there has been no activity on the account in 24 months.
