Félix & Norton launches paid memberships to increase re-purchase rate

“I looked for membership programs and the first I found was super expensive with lack of support, so it didn’t make sense to me. The second one was overcomplicated. Then I found Love Loyalty, and I was like “wow, this is simple” - I like simple. Simple works. It can go live fast and be tested, and it also has everything I need.” - Simon Paquin, COO of Félix & Norton

Félix & Norton wanted to go beyond simple transactions and make their loyal customers feel like true members of the brand. They were looking for a way to reward regular customers, strengthen emotional connection, and encourage more frequent purchases.
To achieve this, the company explored the idea of a yearly membership program - a model that not only builds loyalty but also drives repeat orders. After testing several solutions, Félix & Norton chose Love Loyalty to power their membership program.

CHALLENGE

Félix & Norton has been baking gourmet cookies in Montréal since 1985. Their mission is simple yet ambitious: craft the best homemade cookies in the world and spread joy with every bite.

Today, the brand sells cookies in five boutique stores across Canada, select grocery partners and a thriving online shop launched on Shopify in 2021 during the pandemic.

To deepen customer loyalty and boost purchase frequency, the team decided to introduce a membership program - one that would reward regulars while also being available through Shopify POS for in-store shoppers. After evaluating several options, they chose Love Loyalty’s Memberships feature to power their program, attracted by its seamless Shopify integration and ease of use.

As most of the companies’ sales are through their offline stores, they didn’t know much data about their customers so they needed the membership program connected to POS to have a better understanding of their regular customers' behaviour.
We had a chat with our friend Simon, who is Félix & Norton’s Chief Operating Officer and is responsible for all sales channels:

“One of our most important KPIs is re-occurrence of purchases. So the challenge was, how do we get someone who buys cookies as gifts once or twice a year to purchase on a monthly basis, even weekly? Some people would think of subscriptions but most people won’t subscribe to gift giving. Then I saw some brands using memberships. And it made sense - the gifter gets some benefit (cashback or discount) while the giftee enjoys the cookies - then I started to look for a membership solution and I’ve been highly referred to the Love Loyalty guys as crazy people, and that’s a good thing, I love crazies. I love people that are obsessed with their businesses and the details and making things work and innovating. So I gave it a go."

SOLUTION

Simon and the team at Félix & Norton were looking for a simple yet effective way to create extra revenue while rewarding their most loyal cookie lovers so they decided to launch “The Big Chunks Club” - a membership program designed to delight regular customers and keep them coming back.

Members receive 10% off on their first order, followed by 10% cashback in the form of store credit on every future order. Plus, every new member gets six free cookies on their next order and an indulgent 12 cookies on their birthday (Re-occurence!) - the kind of perks no cookie fan can resist. The best part is that the staff in-store can easily upsell the membership with just a tap on Shopify POS. The benefits then are available both in-store and online.

To make the experience seamless, Félix & Norton also ensured that members can easily see their benefits right inside their customer account section.

RESULTS

After only 30 days of introducing the Big Chunks Club, they already experienced a higher returning customer rate and higher rate of repeat purchases of their regular customers:

  • 180% higher spend by members
  • $30,000 in annualized membership sales 
  • $8000+ revenue from members within 30 days

They've only started to promote the Club and their plan is to double down on memberships through pitching it to customers in their physical boutiques and promoting it in their online store.
