Summary

As practitioners, we are often asked to craft Customer Journeys. It’s not uncommon, however, to wonder how impactful these lovingly researched and designed journeys are for the stakeholders they are meant for. Do they contain the right information for Enterprise stakeholders? Do they convey it in a way that is actually useful for the end user of these journeys? How can we feel more confident in the research that underlies these journeys? This session will explore some of the approaches that the gotomedia team has been using when researching and creating customer journeys in order to make them more successful for enterprise stakeholders.

Key Insights

  • User journeys should be designed for digital use to enhance accessibility.

  • Focus on designing for actual users rather than just decision-makers.

  • Overloading information complicates usability; prioritize key content.

  • Future states are more relevant than current states in user journeys.

  • Collaboration among users should be a focal point in journey mapping.

  • Interactive and visually appealing formats improve user engagement with journey maps.

  • Utilizing diverse research methods can yield richer data and insights.

  • Regular evaluation of journey relevance is crucial for ongoing effectiveness.

  • Understanding gaps in content can highlight areas for development or improvement.

  • Segmentation should be driven by user behavior patterns rather than company size.
