The Importance of Journey Mapping in a Post-COVID World
Spoiler alert: understanding your audience is becoming more important in a post-COVID world! After a year of doing just about everything online, people expect brands to understand them and their behaviors. That means you’re expected to know exactly what questions your audience is asking, how they’re asking and what information they need at each step in the decision-to-attend journey. Shauna Peters of mdg will walk you through the steps to building an actionable buyer journey map for your next event.
