  • TRAINING SESSIONS

  • STRATEGY SESSIONS

The Customer Journey Game is ideal for creating interaction and setting a customer-centric theme at conferences, training sessions, sales meeting and strategy sessions. The game reinforces the reality that every person in the company plays an important role in providing a frictionless end-to-end experience. Lessons learned during the game are of benefit to employees at every level of an organisation.

The game accommodates a maximum 8 players in a team, preferably played at standard size banquet round tables, or square tables able to accommodate the game board which is 1200mm x 930mm.

 

The Customer Journey Game lasts 2 hours, starting with a presentation entitled 'Beyond Service to Driving Experience' followed by the game and finally a short feedback session, when delegates complete an online survey providing valuable feedback for Management

HOW
WE PLAY

Players throw a dice, move a piece around the board and land on either ‘Happy Customers’; Unhappy Customers’; or ‘Tasks’. Depending on where they land, they either win or lose customer tokens.

At each stage of the game, players take a corresponding card where they land and each one details how the customer perceived the experience at that stage of the journey.  Depending on where they land and how they performed at that stage, players win a Happy Customer token or lose a Happy Customer token. 

 

Along the way, they may be required to do a Google search for their company services, check out a competitors website, search for compliments on Twitter, repeat the company values or take a team selfie.

WHY
WE PLAY

The Customer Journey Game highlights that businesses gain more benefit from retaining customers and increasing customer loyalty, rather than placing all their attention on customer acquisition. 

 

Statistics also show that it costs 8 times more to acquire a new customer, as opposed to upselling to an existing customer, so the Customer Journey Game focuses on touch points and pain points that influence buyer behavior and encourages employees to identify obstacles in the journey and make recommendations for improvements.

To increase customer retention, it is vitally important that every employee identifies where they play a part in the customer journey and consider how they can add more value. 

GAME
OUTCOMES

The game concludes with all players completing a 'Let's Share Idea's" session, where employees are asked to share their recommendations on how they think people, processes and technology can be improved to deliver a frictionless experience in the future. 

The feedback session concludes with asking Players to identify and commit to implementing "3 Quick Fixes" on returning to work the next day, which will improve the customer journey immediately.

In addition, survey questions also ask employees to share their recommendations on improvements  that would require Management intervention to fix. Survey results are shared with management immediately after the game and often provide invaluable insights for the company.
