Do you know every touchpoint that customers have with your brand? More importantly, do you know what their experience is like with your brand at each of those touchpoints? Are they satisfied, happy, or frustrated?
Understanding your customer journey is the foundation of creating a special experience for your customers at each stage, and in turn improving conversions and retention.
Customer journey mapping is the process of using internal and external data to understand the stages of your customers lifecycle with your business. This covers all the way from the first time they identify they have a problem that your business may be able to solve, to becoming customers and in turn brand advocates.
Depending on your business, the lifecycle could be years long and involve hundreds if not thousands of touchpoints. This makes it so critical to map the stages of the journey and each individual touchpoint to understand which are the most important in converting and retaining customers.
The first step of any customer journey mapping process is to clearly identify the different types of customers who interact with your brand. They may have different goals, motivations and pain points so the approach when engaging them needs to be adjusted accordingly.
Personas are fictional representations of your different customer types which put a human face to the insights making it easier to relate to and understand their experience.
With the personas identified, we then move on to mapping each of their unique journeys. Among other things, these customer journey maps include their goals, actions, channels and pain points.
This information is gathered through a substantial range of research including on-site and campaign analytics, internal workshops, customer surveys and interviews and much more.
