Lowe’s Introduces New Rewards Program for Professionals
Lowe’s is doubling down on its commitment to its professional customers and business owners with a “new partnership that helps Pros succeed no matter their size.”
The home improvement retailer’s new loyalty offering, named MVPs Pro Rewards and Partnership Program, builds on Lowe’s credit offering and provides benefits like exclusive offers to business management tools and select free drinks; chances to win gear and prizes; and the opportunity to earn Lowe’s e-gift cards.
“It’s a way of us helping the Pros be better with their business.” Shannon Tucker, VP of Pro and Tool Rental, said during a press briefing last week. “We specifically designed the program to help all Pros regardless of size.”
“All of our marketing efforts are really focused on all of the audiences,” Gerardo Soto Aycinena, VP Brand Marketing PRO, said on the call, noting the public will see that diversity come through in the communications.

Additionally, Lowe’s is offering the inaugural Lowe’s “State of the Pro report” — a “first-of-its-kind new tool” Pros can add to their business toolbox. The findings of the report point to a critical need for retail partners like Lowe’s to show up as a true business partner for Pros. Below are a few takeaways from the report.
