Step 1: Define the Journey

1. Customer persona: Who is taking this journey?
2. Product/​service: What are they buying?
3. Sales cycle: How long from awareness to purchase?
4. Channels: Where do they discover and interact with you?

Step 2: Map the Stages

Step 3: Detail Each Stage

For each stage, document:

• Touchpoints: Where they interact with you
• Actions: What they do
• Thoughts: What they're thinking
• Emotions: How they feel (😊 → 😐 → 😤)
• Pain points: What frustrates them
• Opportunities: How to improve the experience
• Content needed: What content serves them here
• Metrics: How to measure success at this stage
