A trust gap is a moment in the customer journey where doubt, hesitation, or unnecessary friction causes a prospect to second-guess their next step. This blog covers how to identify and close trust gaps in the buyer journey.
Customer loyalty is a cornerstone of business success, and Rivalea, a leading Australian agricultural business, wanted to strengthen its customer relationships through an intuitive, engaging mobile app.
To achieve this, Rivalea envisioned a customer rewards program, accessible via a seamless, user-friendly mobile experience. The challenge was to:
Create a high-performing mobile app that encouraged repeat engagement
Ensure an exceptional user experience (UX) to maximize app adoption
Develop an intuitive UI design that simplified navigation and rewarded users effectively
Drive business growth through customer retention and increased spending
Recognizing the need for a customer-centric, research-driven approach, Rivalea partnered with LimeHub to design and develop a high-impact loyalty mobile app.
