GNC CUSTOMER TESTIMONIALS
21-year-old male, Cranberry Township, PA
“I like that the points can be used towards cash
back, although I feel like I will likely have to spend
more to get the rewards. I like that the prices will
remain constant for purchases, regardless of a card
or not. I am unsure if I will still get ‘exclusive’
benefits or not.”
21-year-old female, Greensboro, NC
“The rewards program seems to be better for the
customer. The employees explained that it was free
and that the rewards were no longer random but
depending on the amount of points the customer
had and what they purchased. It was really easy to
get.”
25-year-old female, Opelika, AL
“It seems like the new program really is benefiting
all ranges of customers due to the rewards per
dollar. The original rewards program really only
seemed to benefit those that spent a lot of money
on supplements, thus did not help me a ton due to
the types of products I typically purchase. This new
program does benefit me which is a wonderful
change…Not only was I excited about the new
rewards program, but the employees were visibly
excited as well.”
27-year-old female, Long Beach, CA
“With the Gold Card you paid $15 each year…each
time I entered the store my membership expired
(and) I had to pay them $15 cash to get my
membership discounts and privileges. With the
GNC Rewards program you don't have to pay for it
at all; it's open to anyone now and that's awesome
because sometimes paying for the membership
kept me from renewing. I am an avid GNC shopper
and have been for years and I'm very glad they've
upgraded the membership.”

GNC CUSTOMER TESTIMONIALS
28-year-old female, Rochester, NY
“I am excited about the new GNC reward program!
I think it is great that they give a free birthday gift
and also $5 back after 150 reward points. I am
considering purchasing the pro program because I
purchase a lot of whey protein. I could benefit from
ordering online now and getting free shipping. For
$39.99 a year, I think it's a plus to get free samples,
coupons, and new products in the mail. Not to
mention the insider line. The person I spoke to in
GNC said that they give nutritional advice, which is
awesome.”
29-year-old male, Kennesaw, GA
“I think it's nice for the fact that everyone can take
advantage of it now. But at the same time you don't
feel that exclusive member part of the experience
where you knew that since you had that gold card
you were special and getting the best deals
compared to non-members. Also, now instead of
saving at the register you have to save rewards in
order to take advantage of it another day.”
29-year-old female, Valencia, Ca
“The employee was beyond knowledgeable (about
the rewards program), which was very helpful, but
also a little time consuming to listen to all the
details. I think my attitude is positive.”
31-year-old female, Union, NJ
“I like that with the annual fee I would get free
shipping, a customized pro box based on my
purchases 3 times a year, and I get to choose my
sale days! I love that!”

GNC CUSTOMER TESTIMONIALS
35-year-old male, Norfolk, VA
“I think once I start to use it then I might see the
benefit of the program, but having been a gold card
member and seeing the significant cost savings
right away I was more drawn to being a member
even with the yearly cost. I am familiar with many
points programs so I am not totally against it…and I
did notice that prices on a lot of products were
brought down even with the removal of the
member - nonmember pricing, I have yet to truly
see the benefits like you did with the instant
savings. I am hopeful though and I am excited about
this birthday gift as one of the benefits!”
42-year-old female, Stanhope, NJ
“Looking forward to great savings without a yearly
fee. I will spend more.”
My GNC Rewards, cont.
41-year-old female, Temple, TX
“I am happy that it's free now with the option to
upgrade to premium. I like that I can choose to get
$5 cash back automatically or bank my points. I
actually chose to bank my points so that I don't
forget to get them by checking email.”
45-year-old female, Greenwood, IN
I'm not sure how I feel about it yet. I paid $20 for a
two-year membership last year, and while I got my
money back in extra savings, I'm not sure how this is
going to work. We'll see.

Agent TESTIMONIAL
25-year-old female, Opelika, AL
“I LOVE the new single price products and feel that
they are more welcoming to all customers and not
discriminating against those customers that were
not gold members. I can earn rewards at my own
pace, and the double point items are exciting. The
employees are typically very well informed about
products; this paired with excitement about the
new program created a wonderful atmosphere in
the store. It feels like a different store.”
