An in-depth Customer Journey Analysis has the power to refine your marketing strategies, accelerate growth, and completely transform your business. But a simple Google search will show you that doing these analyses comprehensively and accurately is anything but simple.
Things like NPS surveys — while important — are not a reliable data source alone, as people often say what they think they would do rather than what they would do.
That’s why at Cro Metrics, we’ve developed a unique approach that uncovers unsolicited data about each step in your customer journey, both qualitative and quantitative. Yes, it’s a lot of data, but with Iris, our proprietary analytics tool that unifies disparate data sources, and our expert strategists and analysts, we are able to dig through and find the meaning and opportunities within your customer journey.
When to Invest in Customer Journey Analysis
Getting all of this data together and organized is a huge challenge. That’s why many successful companies bring in a consultant to accurately collect and discover new data without interrupting their day-to-day business. Some key signs you may want to invest in a customer journey analysis include:
- Increase conversions or engagement – Whether you’re seeing poor or unchanged metrics, there’s often many failure points that contribute to this. These are points in the customer journey where the customer is somehow distracted or moved away from the goal. We identify these, and help the business make informed decisions in optimizing for better results going forward.
- Optimize experiences for different audience segments – Every business has multiple audiences, but not every business optimizes for each one. We help you understand each of your segments’ journey, and empower you to create tailored experiences that drive customer satisfaction, loyalty, and long-term revenue growth.
- Enhance customer loyalty and retention – We help you see and understand each stage of your customer journey — allowing you to create stronger connections at every step, and to build trust that translates as repeat business over time.
- Uncover data-driven growth opportunities – Through in-depth research, we can provide you with invaluable insights about your customer behavior that can reveal growth opportunities — like new channels or touchpoints — that can be optimized for a higher ROI.
