A 5%-off email is the cheapest way to look like you're building loyalty.

It costs you almost nothing.

Which is exactly why it means nothing to the shopper receiving it.

Meanwhile, national chains are sending hundreds of coupons built around what each of their customers purchases every day.

Next to that, your blanket discount reads as an afterthought, and your customer's full baskets go elsewhere.

But building a loyalty program that actually retains shoppers is simpler than you might think.

Here are five steps to build one: https://na3.hubs.ly/y0DdNy0

Picture a grocery store with no aisles.

You tell the clerk what you came for. They fetch it. Nothing else.

Doesn't sound that exciting, does it?

But on your digital storefront, that's exactly what the search bar is doing. It sells shoppers what they already remembered.

Everything they didn't remember is the part you were counting on.

The weekly ad, the seasonal push, the offer built for exactly that shopper.

It never reaches them, because it lives in a system your storefront isn't talking to.

That's not a search problem, it's a platform problem that’s costing you revenue on every visit.

"I ordered from Instacart."

That's the sentence that should worry every regional grocer.

Because once a shopper says it, the relationship isn't yours anymore.

The order, the shopper data, and the margin now belong to someone else.

DXPro connects your customer data, engagement, and fulfillment on one platform, and integrates with the payment providers and picking tools already in your tech stack.

Which means from first click to fulfilled order, the experience stays yours.

There's a Walmart near your customers, too.

So proximity isn't what sets regional grocers apart.

Trust is.

Walmart doesn't decide what it stocks or what the neighbourhood needs this week. On the other hand, a regional grocer makes those calls locally, and shoppers can tell.

But an advantage you don't control isn't an advantage.

When fulfillment runs through a third-party marketplace, that platform owns the interface, the data, and the relationship with your customers.

The trust is still yours, you're just renting it out.

Most grocery eCommerce platforms have no memory of their shopper.

Which means a regular who's bought the same 40 items every week for two years still has to find all 40 of them again each week.

And that extra work usually translates to smaller baskets at checkout.

With predictive personalization, grocers can track each shopper's purchase cycles, so the items they're due to rebuy are waiting for them before they think to look.

Most grocery sites treat a 10-year customer like a first-time visitor.

Not because the grocer doesn't know them, but because the purchase history never makes it to the page in time to matter.

With DXPro, every interaction feeds DXPro's built-in customer data platform. The shopper sees the result immediately:

→ Search results that prioritize what they've already bought
→ Buy Again prompts timed to their purchase cycles
→ Loyalty-driven offers built around how they shop

The result is bigger baskets, higher repeat purchase rates, and customer lifetime value you own outright.

Nobody takes the same route to work every day.

Some mornings you drive, others you catch a bus, and in some cases you'll hitch a ride with a friend.

Grocery works the same way.

A shopper isn't a "pickup customer" or an "in-store customer." They're one person who needs a big stock-up or a random curbside pickup depending on what's happening in their day.

They're choosing whatever's convenient in that moment.

The only way a grocer can see that is with a system that connects across every channel.

When a CPG brand wants to reach your shoppers, where do they buy that ad?

For most regional grocers, it's a marketplace. The brand pays the marketplace. The ad gets targeted using what shoppers bought in your stores.

Then marketplace keeps the money.

Mercatus RMN changes where that revenue lands. It's a retail media network that runs on your digital properties, powered by your first-party data.

It's a better buy for the brand, and new revenue for your store.

Every first online order is a stranger introducing themselves to your brand.

It's a detailed snapshot of first-party data. And what you do with that data is how a one-time order becomes a second, third, and fourth.

Miss the introduction, and you miss the shopper.

Because none of that happens if the snapshot belongs to somebody else.

Here's why the path to repeat shoppers starts with owning the data: https://na3.hubs.ly/y0Byjk0

Regional grocers won't improve their margins by out-spending big-box retailers.

The real opportunity is leveraging everything big-box retailers can't easily replicate.

— Deep customer relationships
— Local trust that national brands can't manufacture
— Proximity that headquarters two thousand miles away can't match

That's the competitive edge.

Turning it into margin is the work.
