Journey Mapping Customer Effort
Sary StefankiZendesk Sr. Director, Global Customer Success
Mike ZinneZendesk VP, Global Customer Success
Reducing the effort your customers have to put into a relationship is extremely important.
The Effortless ExperienceThere’s something to it
96% of customers that had high-effort experiences reported being disloyal.
Only 9% of customers with low-effort experiences report being disloyal.
Only 1% of all customers with low-effort experiences said they’d spread negative word of mouth about the company.
Compared with 81% of customers with high-effort experiences who said they’d do the same.

What is Journey Mapping?
Journey Mapping is a tool companies use to help them see what their customers truly experience –
the real moments of truth and the ways in which customers go about achieving their needs.
What is Journey Mapping for Customer Effort?
Journey Mapping for Customer Effort is a tool to
identify where customers are expending too much effort
to achieve their needs.
The company made it easy for me to handle my issue.
OK great. Where do we start?
Well, with a customer journey, of course.
