The Customer journey map is key to manage the customer experience, in this post we will understand what it is and what it is for. If you want to know more about it, the expert Jeanne Bliss shares her vision of the utilities of the customer journey map at here.
WHAT IS THE CUSTOMER JOURNEY MAP AND WHAT IS IT FOR?
To elaborate the process map of the current customer experience, we must resort to the customer journey map, which is a diagram that shows the end-to-end steps that your customer follows when interacting with your company, be it with the brand, products, services and personnel… You can see this concept developed at this link.
Therefore, the customer journey map is the review of the activities that impact from the customer’s perspective. As examples we can refer to how customers get information about companies, how they buy, how they use the product. Likewise, we will look for disruptive processes and unnecessary activities that create cost and lack of satisfaction that will be clear examples of improvement.
