The Challenge
Building loyalty when price drives the choice.
For many drivers, gas was gas. Chevron needed to make fuel quality meaningful, showing the long-term value of Techron while giving customers more reasons to choose Chevron again and again.

THE SOLUTION
Turning product value into lasting loyalty.
Chevron’s fuel advantage became the foundation for a broader loyalty experience, using rewards, recognition, and personalization to create value before, during, and after the fill-up.
Uncovering the why behind the audience.
We started with Chevron’s data-informed growth audiences, then enriched them with behaviors, motivations, and attitudes to understand not just who to target, but what could influence their choices.
AUDIENCE STRATEGY
Designing the relationship, not just the touchpoints.
I built an end-to-end journey connecting customer mindset, emotional shifts, business goals, and experience opportunities across acquisition, engagement, growth, and retention.
JOURNEY ARCHITECTURE
Bringing the journey to life across channels and moments.
Activation focused on four principles:
• Make sign-up value obvious and frictionless
