How to Map Your Customer Journey
by Jay Bowen, Senior Account Director Stoltz Marketing Group
The Customer Journey: why you need to map it.
1. It will help you identify each of these touch points and help you think about how different consumers respond to your message or brand
2. To offer your customers a consistently great and relevant experience across all touch points with your brand
3. To make sure it is what they want and expect from you along the way
4. So you can make every touch point your customer is having with your brand the best experience they have ever had
1. Know who your customers are.• Build your Tribe - who is most likely to buy from you and
focus your marketing dollars on them• Research your customers with in-person interviews,
surveys and more to define your primary target market and begin to develop Customer Personas:
• What motivates them• Behaviors online and offline• What kind of beer do they drink• Where do they buy groceries
• Validate these Personas by testing them in the market place
How to Map your Customer Journey:
2. Know your customer touch points.• You need to know how they are making their buying
decision• Are you influencing the decision at the point it is being
made?• How did they find you?• Do you know where they interact with your brand?• Do you know how they researched you against your
competitors?
How to Map your Customer Journey:
3. Create the best possible experience• At every point make it a good experience for that
customer• Listen to your customers and let them tell you what they
want• Make it easy for them to find the information they are
looking for• Make it visually appealing to your customer segments• Don’t design based on what you think will work, A/B Test
until you KNOW what works• Make every experience easy, effective and engaging
How to Map your Customer Journey:
4. Set, Test and Measure• You need to set and measure your marketing Key
Performance Indicators (KPI’s) to know if what you are doing IS ACTUALLY WORKING
• Analyze all your traffic, leads and conversions to understand what is converting leads in your funnel
• Test and modify, test and modify until you have the best version
• You need to do more of what IS working and not waste money on what is NOT working
How to Map your Customer Journey:

way, make that journey a rewarding one and you create
an advocate for life.
