Customer extends their research to different angles and approaches to solve the problem or fulfil the need. During this stage customers are receptive to information that can help them make the best decision. They are focused on understanding the benefits of each option and the impact it will have. Customers shift from simply understanding what their issue is (the awareness stage) to exploring the different ways to resolve it and reach the purchase stage. 38 2.

Loyalty phase 43 WEEK 5: Purchase, retention & advocacy 44 THE PURCHASE PHASE PROBLEM SOLVING The prospect has chosen a strategy — an approach or a solution — to solve the problem. Now he or she will most likely make a list of providers/suppliers. After comparing the different options, the prospect will make a final purchasing decision. By this point, to provide the best service, you should have stepped into your customer’s shoes, understanding the source of the problem or pain point, and thinking about how your product or service will solve the problem or improve it. If your customer succeeds, you will. 45 SYNONYMS FOR PURCHASE PHASE DO ACTION DECISION CONVERSION ACQUISITION 46 AFTER THE PURCHASE: RETENTION RETENTION Once a customer has made a purchase, your focus should shift to building a long-term relationship. This can be achieved by providing excellent customer service, sending personalized follow-up emails, and offering loyalty programs. Recently, customers expect a tailored experience. Use the data you collect to personalize interactions, product recommendations, and marketing messages. 47 AFTER THE PURCHASE: RETENTION RETENTION Mind you though: there are a lot of companies out there with whom you do business with on a regular basis, but there is hardly any interaction with you and the company after the sale. In the end → creating value = happy customers = people coming back. 48 AFTER THE PURCHASE: ADVOCACY ADVOCACY This is the last stage of the customer journey and the hardest one to achieve: to turn your customer into an active advocate for your brand. They give you great reviews, refer their friends and family, and generate the most powerful kind of marketing there is: word-of- mouth. This is the most challenging stage, but also the most rewarding. To turn customers into advocates, you need to provide exceptional products and service, and make it easy for them to recommend your brand to others. 49 WORD OF MOUTH GOAT OF MARKETING 50 Q9: Anthony Miyazaki explains in his video why Word-of- Mouth works so well.
