If you’ve ever flown Delta, you’ve heard this phrase while taxiing.

“We’d like to thank our Diamond and Medallion members for flying with us today.”

if you’re like me, the question you always ask when you hear it is, quite simply, why?

What I want to suggest is something I talked about a few months back. Specifically, that one of the key motivators that can influence consumption habits isn’t price or quality alternatives, it’s how important it makes you feel.

Boarding first, sitting comfortably when others come on, hearing the captain talk about people like you; do these things get you to your destination any faster? Of course not. But do they make you feel important? Absolutely.

I still don’t have my brain wrapped around this idea completely, but hearing those words on a recent flight definitely added another data point to this theory and process.

About Gregg & SlopeFillers
I've had more first-time visitors lately, so adding a quick "about" section. I started SlopeFillers in 2010 with the simple goal of sharing great resort marketing strategies. Today I run marketing for resort ecommerce and CRM provider Inntopia, my home mountain is the lovely Nordic Valley, and my favorite marketing campaign remains the Ski Utah TV show that sold me on skiing as a kid in the 90s.
