Whether you are in marketing or sales, you can’t map the customer journey on your own. It’s a collaborative process, and you need key stakeholders from different departments and regions to do it well. Here are the steps to organize a customer journey workshop: 1️⃣ Get clear on the objectives Do you want to improve the customer experience, identify pain points, optimize a specific touch point or achieve a specific satisfaction score? Which persona or market segment will you select for this workshop, and for which territory? Make sure the answer is not “all of the above”. Agreeing on the objective will help you define clear actions at the end and measure your progress later on. 2️⃣ Gather a cross-functional team You need someone (or several someones) from marketing, sales, customer success, customer support, product development, user experience etc. You need individuals who have direct interactions with customers and team leads who have the authority to set things in motion and make decisions. 3️⃣ Workshop prep If you have material such as personas, data on customer interactions or reports on customer feedback, share it in advance so all participants can come to the workshop prepared. 4️⃣ The actual workshop > Set the stage: go over the objectives, the prep material and possible questions together > Mapping: for each stage, map the touch points, key interactions and emotions. Identify pain points and opportunities for improvement. > Group discussion: Discuss the insights gained from the mapping, identify common themes and prioritize areas for improvement. > Action plan: List the actions that will address the identified pain points, assign responsibilities and agree on a timeline to implement changes 5️⃣ Follow-up Document the visualization of your customer journey, list the action points and timeline and share with all participants. Schedule check-ins to track progress. Don’t forget that this is supposed to be a continuous iteration. As the customer experience evolves, your customer journey will evolve as well. Review and update it regularly so it reflects today’s situation instead of last year’s. Have fun and let me know how it worked out for you!

Imagine a scenario where your sales, marketing, and customer care teams are not working in sync. How would this impact your customers' experience? They may encounter: 1. A clumsy onboarding process 2. Lack of post-purchase support This approach, especially in B2B, may increase customer frustration and churn rate. How to solve this? 1. Improve your customer experience- from initial awareness to post-purchase interactions. 2. Develop a strategy followed by all teams. 3. Analyze customer pain points that lead to dissatisfaction and act on them. 4. Identify which touchpoints (e.g., email campaigns, explainer videos) can drive conversions.
