Parsippany, N.J. (July 9, 2014) – RCI, the global leader in vacation exchange and part of the Wyndham Worldwide family of brands (NYSE:WYN), today launched RCI® Custom Incentives & Benefits Platform, a new low-cost, white-label online sales solution with broad appeal and several sales applications, from tour premiums and first-day incentives to trial and exit programs. RCI designed the web-based platform to empower affiliates to help improve their closing rates and recover marketing costs.
“We are committed to providing innovative marketing and technology programs that add value for our affiliates,” said Fiona Downing, RCI senior vice president, business development & operations, U.S., Canada & Caribbean. “Each relationship is unique, so we strive to offer customized solutions to fit each affiliate’s needs. Our new Custom Incentives & Benefits Platform gives affiliates the power to offer product enhancements and arrange trial or exit programs to help close more deals, recover marketing costs and enhance the overall customer experience to build brand loyalty.”
The Custom Incentives & Benefits Platform lets affiliates design their own marketing and incentive programs with the specific benefits they want to offer, then present them in a way that reinforces their brands. The benefits can leverage special product offerings from RCI and/or third-party vendors, and can be strategically implemented to help achieve specific sales goals such as resort return visits, while giving customers the power to immediately activate and redeem any benefits they receive. In fact, sales reps can help customers to activate the benefits right at the sales table so the customer can use them immediately
With enhanced purchase incentives, improved exit programs, seamless integration into any sales process and white label options to reinforce an affiliate’s brand, RCI aims to help affiliates sell more and get more value from their marketing efforts. Affiliates can learn more about the Custom Incentives & Benefits Platform by calling their RCI account executive.
