Milestones

Milestones represent the broad stages your customer customers will go through that mark a significant stage of progress as part of the their Journey. Examples includes Awareness, Research, Purchase, Follow-up, Support, Meeting , or Test Drive etc.

It is expected that the Milestones milestones are created in order with the first milestones on the far left and the final milestones placed on the right. The Journey journey therefore flows from the left to the right.

It is likely, but not mandated that your customers will go through each Milestone milestone before moving unto the next Milestone to the rightmilestone. For example, your customers need to be aware of who you are before they can purchase from you.

Adding Steps and Placeholders

A Step step (Journey Stepjourney step) is an action or activity a customer may do in the journey, or an action of activity you are doing (or plan to do) to influence the journey.

...

It’s important to note that the Journey journey steps include Customer Actions customer actions where it is not possible to track or influence them using Alterian CX. The Idealised Journey Playbook is the only place these steps are highlighted as part of the bigger picture.

The combination of Customer Actions customer actions and the Internal Actions internal actions make up the Journeyjourney.

Not each every customer or prospect will go through each Step. Some will step, some will, and therefore you need to plan how this step is met by the Internal actions and whether the Customer Action customer action could be positively influenced by the Internal actions.

The Add add icon at the top of the Milestone milestone allows you to add Placeholders placeholders and Steps steps into the Milestonemilestone.
