3. The Vitamin Shoppe announced
Monday the launch of their new
subscription based benefits plan,
Spark Auto Delivery.
Vitamin Shoppe calls it “a
convenient and differentiated
product subscription service that
will allow customers to save on
their favorite wellness items while
receiving them on a flexible,
automated shipping schedule.”
4. Perks of enrollment in the program include:
10% off all items purchased (participating
products), a built in trial for new products,
double Healthy Rewards points, free
shipping, flexible delivery.
The service is tied to Vitamin Shoppe’s
Healthy Rewards Plan which allows
customers to accumulate points for each
dollar spent for a cash rebate at the end of
the quarter.
Vitamin Shoppe appears to be targeting
those who live a lifestyle devoted to health
and wellness, as Healthy Awards calls itself,
“an exclusive group of wellness-minded
individuals who reap the benefits of working
towards their health and performance goals.”
5. "We have created a consumer-first
subscription service that combines
convenience and savings with
engaging experiences.”
– John Hnanicek, chief customer
innovation and technology officer at
The Vitamin Shoppe
Vitamin Shoppe has partnered with Liquid Agency, a Silicon Valley based
branding and marketing agency to bring forth the launch.
The launch was announced on their social channels, through a PR statement
and on the Vitamin Shoppe Website and Spark Auto Deliver microsite.
