In her latest article for CXM World, Sarah Jarvis, Propositions Director at Eagle Eye, explores why brands must think beyond short-term incentives and seasonal engagement spikes. She argues that while holiday campaigns can deliver a surge in transactions, true loyalty is built on consistent, personalized value throughout the year.
