So, giving people access to special rates or a discount. But they need to order, or spend X, every month to remain in this club. As well as loss aversion, this also ties in with the natural human instinct of reciprocation. Not that you\u2019ll give them special membership back, but you might want to reward their gesture with some loyalty of your own. This dynamic is also why free trials work so well.
