Gain a clear understanding of both the current and future needs of your customers by mapping the customer journey.

What does the customer journey of your (potential) customers look like? How do they experience your organization, and where are the opportunities for improvement? The customer journey represents the complete “journey” a customer takes—from orientation and purchase to usage and aftercare. Mapping this journey provides insight into the various touchpoints, channels, and customer experiences throughout each phase. By visualizing the customer journey, touchpoints per phase become immediately clear.

Optimizing the journey leads to higher customer satisfaction and increased conversion. Customers are more likely to return and to recommend your organization to others. In addition, customer journey mapping reveals how and when customers can best be reached—through which channels and at which moments—bringing structure and focus to the overall marketing strategy.

Blog Customer Journey

A strong B2B customer journey prevents frustration, accelerates decision-making, and strengthens customer loyalty. Customers often encounter obstacles due to complex decisions, unclear value propositions, inconsistent communication, and limited follow-up. Through clear communication, digital tools, and proactive aftersales, organizations can retain satisfied customers, stimulate repeat purchases, and operate more efficiently.

Our Approach

Developing Customer Profiles

Before mapping the current customer journey, it is essential to understand who is taking the journey. Who are the segments and stakeholders involved? What are their key characteristics? We conduct in-depth target group research and translate these insights into detailed customer profiles. Each profile outlines the tasks, goals, and roles within the DMU. Strong customer insight is a critical prerequisite in this phase.

 

 

Designing the Current Customer Journey

Through internal and external interviews and surveys, we document the different phases and touchpoints within the customer journey. We also assess the customer experience at each touchpoint, including the emotions it evokes. The current customer journey highlights moments where expectations are not met, as well as areas of friction and positive experiences.

 

Designing the Desired Customer Journey

Once the current customer journey—including all channels, touchpoints, and experiences—has been mapped, we design the desired customer journey. This represents the optimal customer experience. By comparing the current and desired journeys, gaps and bottlenecks become clearly visible.

 

 

Taking Action

The differences between the current and desired journeys are translated into concrete, actionable improvement initiatives. These are immediately executable actions aimed at achieving the desired customer journey and enhancing the overall customer experience. Findings and recommendations are presented and discussed in a structured presentation.

 

 

 

 

The importance of measuring touchpoints quantitatively.

  • Insight into customer behavior – Measure performance per touchpoint to understand how customers interact with your brand and where friction or improvement opportunities exist.
  • Optimization of the customer experience – Not all touchpoints have the same impact on loyalty. By identifying the most influential touchpoints, optimization efforts can be focused where they matter most.

  • Efficient allocation of resources – Understand which touchpoints contribute most to loyalty and deploy budgets and resources more effectively, avoiding investments in low-impact improvements.

  • Increased customer loyalty and retention  – Identify where customers drop off or where strong relationships are formed, enabling targeted actions to increase loyalty and reduce churn.

  • Data-driven decision-making  – Replace assumptions with measurable performance indicators and impact analyses, ensuring objective and well-founded decisions.
