Good morning, Marketer, and go for the gold.
When it comes to customer journeys, the gold we’re talking about is golden milestones. This was one of the many key concepts expanded on at our last MarTech conference. They’re the most important parts of the journey that marketers build around to make experience valuable and relevant.
As these journeys continue to transform – just look at how events have shifted to hybrid and virtual experiences in the last two years – it’s worth reevaluating what those milestones are. If you’re a retailer, the milestone might have been to get a customer into the store to ask about a new product or sale item. In a transition to e-commerce, the journey has changed and free delivery could be the golden ticket.
Looking at the data and feedback from customers along their journeys is the best way to measure these changing values.
