  • Leading Telco Loyalty: TELUS Rewards is Redefining Customer Value (#748)
    Feb 24 2026

    This episode is available in audio format on the Let’s Talk Loyalty podcast and in video format on www.Loyalty.TV.

    TELUS is one of Canada's largest telecommunications companies, serving millions of customers across mobile, internet, TV, and digital health services. What makes TELUS particularly interesting from a loyalty perspective is how they've evolved their interactions with TELUS Services customers (mobility, internet, security and TV) through a new national tiered program, TELUS Rewards, that combines points and perks with extension into some major leading category partnerships and their programs, including WestJet.

    Aaron Dauphinee sat down with Jacob Pullia, Director of Content, Strategy & Business Development is he leads the way in redefining how TELUS thinks about loyalty and their mandate of putting customers first. We also spend some time discussing partnership models and why the connection with WestJet makes sense for both organizations and their joint customers.

    Louisa Evans is Head of Loyalty and Retention for Hornby Hobbies which saw the launch of its Rewards programme, Hobby Rewards, three years ago. In this interview, Louisa talks us through how the product-centric organisation with magnificently created and engineered collectibles turns into a customer-led business.

    They had to pivot from a pure B2B company to create a D2C channel during covid, resulting in Hobby Rewards. This is a magnificent inside view into a concept referred to as generational loyalty and data-led decision making, combing transactional and emotional loyalty.

  • How Beer Culture, Category, and Loyalty Evolved a Decade After SABMiller (#746)
    Feb 17 2026

    This episode is available in audio format on the Let’s Talk Loyalty podcast and in video format on www.Loyalty.TV.

    In this episode, we explore how beer culture, category dynamics, and customer loyalty have evolved in the decade following AB InBev’s acquisition of SABMiller — one of the most significant moments in the global beer industry.

    Our guest is DeWet Bisschoff. He has spent more than two decades harnessing the power of business strategy, talented people, and disruptive technology. More recently, he has worked alongside AB InBev across markets and brands, with deep exposure to how loyalty, culture, and customer experience operate at global scale.

    The conversation reflects on how loyalty in the beer category extends beyond products or transactions. It is shaped by heritage, local pride, shared rituals, and everyday moments of connection. As global scale and complexity increase, we explore what it takes to protect these emotional loyalty drivers while evolving operating models and customer engagement behind the scenes.

    We also discuss how the beer category has changed over the past decade — from digital commerce and personalization to non-alcoholic innovation and more conscious consumption — and what these shifts mean for sustaining relevance and loyalty across generations and geographies.

    This episode offers a thoughtful perspective on how global brands can evolve without losing the cultural foundations that loyalty is built on.

    This episode is hosted by Nyeleti.

    Jan 27 2026

    This episode is available in audio format on the Let’s Talk Loyalty podcast and in video format on www.Loyalty.TV.

    In this episode, we explore how storytelling drives trust, credibility, and long-term loyalty in B2B, within the highly complex world of shipping and logistics.

    Our guest is Samantha Almon Adeluwoye, Global Head of Content, Social Media, & Storytelling at A.P. Moller – Maersk.

    Samantha shares how storytelling at Maersk is grounded in the company’s values and its responsibility as a trusted custodian of customers’ goods. Rather than being separate from operations, human stories are used to strengthen confidence in Maersk’s reliability, care, and expertise — helping customers connect emotionally while trusting operational excellence.

    The conversation also explores how social media functions as a strategic relationship engine in B2B, enabling connection across complex decision-making ecosystems while reinforcing trust over time. Samantha offers insight into how consistent, values-led storytelling supports retention, referral, and long-term partnerships in an industry where credibility is everything.

    With a strong track record of delivering engaging, purposeful content at global scale, Samantha provides a thoughtful perspective on how human storytelling and operational capability work together to build loyalty.
