A customer’s journey can be described as BEFORE, DURING, and AFTER.
Before = Prospects
During = Leads
After = Customers
In the before stage, a person is introduced to your business.
In the during stage, a person expresses interest in your offer.
In the after stage, a person gives you money.
For example…
Before = They see your Facebook ad
During = They opt-in to your free download
After = They purchase your lead product
When designing your marketing plan, remember this unique journey.
First, get them to KNOW you, then to LIKE you, and then finally to TRUST you.
