Creating Customer Journey Map

Customer journey or user journey is a journey of a potential customer about different points of contact with a product, a brand or (touchpoints) of a company via all available channels that can extend over several hours or days. However, the end goal of Customer Journey map is always to find and resolve the pain points of your customers.

Step 1. Define your customer persona

The first step is to decide is whose journey you are going to map i.e. a specific customer type (persona), a potential (target) customer, or a section of customers, depending on the purpose of your journey mapping plan. After you’ve created distinct personas, now create customer journey maps that describe each persona’s experience at various customer journey touchpoints during their lifecycle with your company.

Step 2. Define your customer journey phases

Identify the customer journey phases that your customer experiences with you over time. Define how, when and where they discovered your company, researched your products or services, choose you over your competitors, made purchase from you.

Step 3. Describe the customer journey touchpoints

Identifying the touchpoints your customer uses to interact with your organization and make sure your customers are satisfied every step of the way.

Step 4. Conduct research

At every stage of the customer’s journey, conduct research to identify the customer’s goals, what he expects the process would be like, the steps and the customer journey touchpoints they used at various platforms.

Step 5. Determine points of friction

Once you have known your persona’s goals and identified their touchpoints, it’s time to look at the totality of their experience with your company. Each stage of the customer journey mapping will help you identify any points of friction within the customer experience.

Step 6. Resolve
