President’s Corner
TelCoa thanks U.S. Representatives Jim Himes, Rosa DeLauro, and Elizabeth Esty for introducing the Multi-State Worker Tax Fairness Act, H.R. 4085, 113th Congress.

The customer loyalty space is increasingly becoming a battleground where brands fight for their share of the profitable affluent market. However, few affluent customers are willing to accept high prices as the mark of luxury—as a matter of fact, rarely is pricing the challenge when engaging this consumer. Instead, affluent customers expect brands to provide a compelling customer experience that differentiates itself from the competition.
