In this episode of Little Conversation, host Samantha Dover is joined by experts in consumer trends and purchase behaviour for a discussion about brand loyalty and to answer the questions: how has brand loyalty changed, what behaviour shifts are driving those changes, and what opportunities are there for brands to create loyalty in the future?

Today, the demand for value and experience are merging, offering brands unique opportunities to reward consumers and drive loyalty - but how? Listen now to find out.
