Customer Journey Mapping
Visual Journey Canvas
Customer Journey Mapping provides a visual flow diagram showing the stages a prospect moves through on their way to becoming a customer and advocate. The default journey stages are:
- Visitor — Anonymous website visitor
- Lead — Identified prospect who has shown interest
- MQL (Marketing Qualified Lead) — Lead that meets marketing qualification criteria
- SQL (Sales Qualified Lead) — Lead accepted by sales as a genuine opportunity
- Customer — Closed-won deal, active customer
- Advocate — Happy customer who refers others
Stage Configuration
Each stage is fully customizable with:
- Name and color
- Automation triggers — Actions that fire when a contact enters the stage (e.g., send welcome email, create onboarding task, notify account manager)
- Contact count — Number of contacts currently in this stage
- Average time in stage — How long contacts typically spend here
Conversion Metrics
Between each pair of stages, the journey view shows conversion rates as arrows. This makes it easy to identify bottlenecks where prospects get stuck or drop off.
Journey Analytics
The analytics section below the journey canvas provides:
- Conversion funnel — Horizontal bar chart showing contacts at each stage
- Time-in-stage analysis — Bar chart showing average days per stage
- Bottleneck detection — Automatically highlights stages with the longest time or lowest conversion rates
Automation Triggers
Set up automation triggers at each stage transition to ensure smooth handoffs. Common triggers include sending emails, creating tasks, updating deal stages, and notifying team members.
