Experience Map:
- How does the prospect find you? What’s the first point of contact? Does he
initiate it, or do you?
The first point of contact is through social media ads, he finds us, but it initiates with us by
creating the ad.
- What does the sales process look like today? Anything you know should be
fixed?
The sale process is completely online fast and comfortable for the client. Maybe we should
fix the time of response with the client.
- What kinds of web-findable content (blog, YouTube channel, podcast, etc.) are
available to the prospect so she can begin to educate herself about your
product or service? What questions are answered? How will that content be
crafted to be both interesting and useful/relevant to the prospect’s problems?
Our web- findable content is mainly blog and social media pages. The client can discover
who we are, what are our products and where we are.
- What motivates the prospect to raise her hand for permission-based content,
like an opt-in email list? What makes taking that action irresistible for her?
Several offers that me make for actual clients and new ones. For examen 25% discount at
their first purchase.
- What does the prospect need to know in order to make an informed decision to
buy?
The prospect needs to know our product catalogue and the product offers we have.
- What does she/he need to believe and experience in order to be delighted to
become a client or customer?
Needs to experience how we treat our customers before, during and after the sale process.
The client also can read the reviews we have from other customers experience.
- What does the actual purchasing experience look like? What are the steps?
How could that process be made simpler and more enjoyable?
1. Enter our website or our digital media page. 2. Look our catalogue and choose a
product. 3. Make the order. 4. Pay online trough “Yape” or credit card. 5. Deliver the
product to the client
We think is the simplest way to make the process enjoyable and fast.
- What happens immediately after the purchase is made?
We send the confirmation of the order and ask them if they want to give us an email to
receive offers and updates of the purchase.
- How is the product or service delivered today? How could you make that
experience more satisfying for this avatar?
We use “outsourcing” to deliver the products but is completely safe and the client can
follow the delivery process. We can give them a little gift or reminder that every client is
important for us.
- What is the plan for staying in touch with this new customer? For ensuring that
she’s having an excellent experience with your product or service?
We try to stay in touch by sending offers and advice about new products. We try to ensure
the experience by sending the client a satisfaction survey after the purchase process.

the steps of that experience?
1. Complete the purchase process. 2. Satisfaction and happiness with product and our
