Patient loyalty is the engine behind practice growth. Loyalty members are 140% more valuable than the average patient, and just 19% of your patients may already be driving more than half your revenue. Clark Cave, CEO of Model Rewards, shares the data behind what keeps patients coming back in a crowded aesthetics market.
He explains how modern loyalty programs go far beyond promos. From reducing drop-off to navigating the shrinking reach of email marketing, a simple, data-driven rewards system can turn patients into long-term advocates.
Learn how “micro-influencers” already exist inside your patient base, why referrals often outperform big spenders, and how smart incentives can shift behavior fast.
Model Rewards turns ordinary visits into lasting relationships. Find out what makes a loyalty program truly effective, how to identify and reward your most valuable patients, and why overcoming skepticism about loyalty software might be the key to unlocking your next wave of retention and revenue.
