There was a time, not all that long ago, when brands controlled their customer relationships almost entirely through marketing, direct sales and service. Customer journeys were straightforward along limited channels. 

 

Options are much broader now … but so are customer experience management (CXM) solutions. 

 

Today’s customers expect seamless, personalized, omnichannel experiences. They have the power to choose how and when they engage with your business. And they defect to your competition when their needs aren’t met. 

 

Businesses, meanwhile, face significant challenges in meeting those needs. Luckily there are also pioneering solutions that empower organizations with tools that help them satisfy (and exceed!) rising customer expectations. 

 

Customer journey mapping is the foundation of these holistic CXM strategies, which also include analytics, management and omnichannel customer communications, to help optimize the experience for your customers.

 

This checklist, written in partnership with Heart of the Customer’s Jim Tincher, provides an overview of customer journey mapping and why it is an important tool for businesses that want to stay ahead of the game. 

 

Your big takeaway is a checklist of critical questions every CX leader should be able to ask (and answer).
