Although the role of above the line marketing activities primes customers to have a brand preference, the final purchasing decision is frequently made at the shop floor. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The challenge for a handset manufacturer often lies in promoting their product and influencing decisions in this \u201clast 3 feet\u201d of the customer journey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In this particular showcase, we identified the pain points as:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Increase in <a href=\"https:\/\/212f.com\/getting-a-greater-share-of-wallet\/\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"7639\">share of wallet<\/a> and margin growth (primary)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Increase knowledge transfer (secondary)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/212f.com\/au\/b2b-solutions\/\">Incentives and rewards solutions<\/a> are designed to solve these problems can be done in a number of ways. However, during this retail sales incentive design we had to weigh up the variables, such as the stakeholders, the buyer, the sales person, their direct employer and the retailer itself. When considering design elements, we also had to identify enablers and barriers to achieving the objective.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is where a gamified B2B sales incentive built within our <a href=\"https:\/\/212f.com\/au\/b2b-solutions\/\">loyalty and rewards solutions<\/a> involved a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mckinsey.com\/business-functions\/marketing-and-sales\/our-insights\/a-marketers-guide-to-behavioral-economics\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.mckinsey.com\/business-functions\/marketing-and-sales\/our-insights\/a-marketers-guide-to-behavioral-economics\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">behavioural economic principles<\/a> &#8211; attribute priming. The following explores a unique approach, taking on gamified and nostalgic elements where high engagement was achieved with simple collectable cards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\t<section   class=\"two-column-block block-section alignfull col-12 row light \"\n\t\t  style=\"background-image:url(https:\/\/212f.com\/au\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/10\/red-waves.png);background-repeat: no-repeat;background-size: cover;background-position: top center;\" >\n\n\t<div class=\"row  flex-start container container-xxl\">\n\n\t\t<div class=\"block-title-section row col-12 col-8-l no-padding \">\n<div class=\"col-12 no-padding\">\n<h2 class=\"\">\nGamified B2B Incentive Structure \n<\/h2>\n\n<\/div><div class=\"block-text-area col-12 no-padding p-size \"><p>Rewards points were earned for selling mobile phones or completing product-based training. Sales staff were invited into the incentive program via a launch pack that, among other things, contained a branded t-shirt. The goal of this pack was to create buzz and motivate sales staff.<\/p>\n<p>Sales staff registered through an program branded online <a href=\"https:\/\/212f.com\/au\/insights\/b2b-incentive-customers\/\">B2B incentive<\/a> program portal, then watched videos explaining how the program worked, such as how to claim and what points were available to earn in the incentive program.<\/p>\n<p>As staff sold devices, they logged into the portal to claim points with the unique 12-digit identification number or IMEI number on the phone \u2013 see data flow.<\/p>\n<p><!-- wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p>To facilitate product knowledge transfer and to educate on the value of genuine accessories, training was delivered via the online platform. Bonus rewards points were issued for successful completion of questionnaires.<\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p>Each claim of a sold phone or accessory triggered two rewards.

Scoring a ticket involved getting a metal key card and collecting the complete set of band members cards. Cards could be traded between sales staff, which created buzz in itself.<\/p>\n<p>The final outcome \u2013 kicking ass on all measurables and objectives!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p class=\"moreless-button\">Read more<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n<\/div>\n   \n\n\t\t\n\n<div class=\"col-12 col-4-l select-image right-side flex-middle row\">\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/212f.com\/au\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/09\/Capture-1.png\" alt=\"\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t <\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\n\n\n\t\n\n\t<\/div>\n\n\n<\/section>\n\n\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>This concept isn\u2019t a one-off, \u201cnever to be repeated\u201d type of activity.
