As anyone with young children will attest, the well-known TV character ‘Bob the Builder’ is best known for coining the phrase ‘can we fix it?’, followed by the cry of ‘yes we can!!’ True to these words, Bob and his trusty sidekicks, Scoop, Roley and Dizzy (among others), do indeed fix things.

A customer journey map is a simple idea that has become overly complicated. At its core, a customer journey map tells the story of a customer’s experience. It begins at initial contact, develops with engagement and forms a long-term relationship between a brand and its customers. It identifies key interactions and defines the various feelings, motivations and expectations that a customer might have at each touchpoint.

Many people can’t distinguish between terms ‘customer support’ and ‘customer service’. It’s confusing! Some businesses have rejected the term ‘customer service’ – in a bid to modernize an existing department – in favor of ‘customer support’ which sounds contemporary or even call it ‘customer success’.

This generation of young people will likely tell future generations that they lived in an era when some people actually lined up to give paper money or swipe a plastic card in front of someone called a cashier.
