Access Development Again Named to the Utah 100
As consumers increasingly seek to save money, customer loyalty program and discount card provider Access Development has seen increased growth during some of the most difficult years the economy has faced.
Salt Lake City, UT (PRWEB) November 4, 2009 -- Access Development, a leading provider of merchant-funded customer loyalty programs and discount cards since 1984, has been named to the Utah 100 for the second year in a row.
This award, sponsored by the Mountain West Venture Group, determines the fastest growing Utah companies based on percentage of revenue over the past three years--some of the most difficult the economy has faced. Yet the downturn has sparked greater interest in customer loyalty programs that help people save, like customer discount cards, loyalty cards, credit card rewards and fundraising discount cards--which together make up the core of the Access business model.
"Consumers everywhere are trying to get the most out of their dollar right now and are using discount cards and loyalty cards more than ever, so our clients gain a lot by helping their customers save," explains Casey Kleinman, Access President. "We help organizations get and keep more customers with loyalty programs that build new revenue streams by offering the value people are looking for."
A recent study by the Promotional Marketing Association confirms this trend, showing that 86% of the US population uses discount cards or coupons when making a buying decision, up 10% since 2006. Access has responded to this demand by seeking out more exclusive offers to help members save on everyday purchases like dining out, auto care, haircuts, holiday shopping and affordable travel.
As a result, Access has built a successful customer loyalty program based on a savings network of over 260,000 participating locations nationwide, including over 450 national brands like Target.com, Office Depot, Cinemark and Best Western. A broad spectrum of corporations, banks, professional associations, alumni groups and a majority of US education associations rely on the vast network to build revenue and engage the people they serve.
"Our growth and continued tenure on the Utah 100 in such a difficult year shows the relevance of our model and its power to help clients stay strong in tight times," says Larry Maxfield, the founder and CEO of Access. "As with our recent Utah Work/Life Award, the Utah 100 simply represents the commitment of our talented people, who each strive to create win-win relationships for our clients, our merchants, our members, and with each other."
