The Parallel Path
Customer Experience
Customer Journey

26
Customer
Experience The lifelong relationship
of a person with a
company, as it is
perceived from the
person’s point of view
and containing all of the
elements that form this
relationship.

27
Customer
Journey The Complete set of
communications, actions
and assets that a
customer encounters
and/or engages with,
during, and as a part of,
their lifelong relationship
with the company.

28
Touchpoints
Occasions where the Customer
Experience and the Customer
Journey converge. In many
cases this convergence is
initiated by the company and
involves at least one of the
following: Communication,
Product, Action or
Information.

29
Value The going currency in
the customer/company
relationship. A mutual
perception of
appropriate derived
value is the one and only
condition to the
continuation and
fruition of the
relationship.

30
Now let’s break it down
Customer Journey

31
The journey breaks down into segments.
A segment can be a journey in itself (Sub-Journey)
Segment
These are not market segments!

32
A segment is a series of touch points.
ValueEnter Exit
It welcomes a customer from a previous segment
It creates value
It sends the customer off to the next segment

34
Which person goes to which segment?
Define “Personas”
A “Persona” is a characterization of a person or a
group of people, in terms of all the possible parameters
that enable us to define timely needs.
A persona is the HD version of what used to be called
a target audience.

35
Which person goes to which segment?
A Persona is the determining factor for
assignment to segments and journeys
New sub-Personas may be born as a result of
additional information which is attributed to subsets of
customers as they move through segments.

36
A segment is not a linear entity
Enter
It is dependent on Actions and reactions
It may be dynamic
It tries to have an answer to any possible scenario

We’ve gathered some tips
and warning signs:
Warnings of Pitfalls Insights & Tips

38
You can’t please them all
1. Define your business goal
2. Choose 1-2 most relevant journeys & map them
3. Invest in design phase (research, interviews...)
4. Choose 2-3 journey sections (=customer task)
that most affect relevant business goal

39
Beware of the product/brand trap!

40
Message design
Think in terms of the “customer process”
What’s the term he/she would use?
Don’t improve existing journeys, reinvent them
Tip: Involve advertising people for “message design”

41
Pitfall: Inadequate skills shortage

• Use analytics to understand “why”
customers behave as they do
• Acting upon insights

+ individual views, cross-channel attribution… Data
