Customer journey mapping is the process of visualizing and analyzing the steps a customer takes from first becoming aware of your product to completing a purchase or becoming a loyal user. This map helps businesses understand pain points, emotions, and opportunities at each stage of the customer experience.

An Example to Understand Customer Journey Mapping
