Create comprehensive user journey maps that identify pain points, opportunities, and emotional states across touchpoints. Use when mapping user experiences or analyzing conversion flows.

Overview

# User Journey Mapping

Comprehensive guide to creating user journey maps that reveal pain points, opportunities, and emotional states across the entire user experience.

When to Use This Skill

  • Mapping end-to-end user experiences
  • Identifying conversion funnel drop-off points
  • Understanding emotional states during key interactions
  • Discovering optimization opportunities
  • Aligning teams around user perspective

Journey Map Components

1. Stages

Define the major phases users go through:

```

Awareness β†’ Consideration β†’ Decision β†’ Onboarding β†’ Usage β†’ Advocacy

```

2. User Actions

What the user does at each stage:

  • Searches, browses, compares
  • Signs up, configures, learns
  • Uses features, seeks help
  • Shares, recommends, upgrades

3. Touchpoints

Where interaction happens:

  • Website, mobile app, email
  • Support chat, documentation
  • Social media, reviews
  • In-person, phone

4. Emotions

How users feel (use emoticons or scale):

```

😊 Delighted β†’ 😐 Neutral β†’ 😀 Frustrated β†’ 😑 Angry

```

5. Pain Points

Where friction occurs:

  • Confusion, delays, errors
  • Missing information
  • Poor feedback
  • Technical issues

6. Opportunities

Where we can improve:

  • Quick wins
  • Major improvements
  • Innovation opportunities

Journey Map Template

```markdown

User Journey: [Persona Name] - [Goal]

Stage 1: [Stage Name]

User Goal: [What they're trying to achieve]

Actions:

  • [Action 1]
  • [Action 2]

Touchpoints: [Where interaction happens]

Emotions: [😊/😐/😀/😑] - [Why they feel this way]

Pain Points:

  • [Pain point with impact]

Opportunities:

  • [Opportunity with potential impact]

Metrics: [How we measure this stage]

---

[Repeat for each stage]

```

Example Journey Map

E-commerce Checkout Journey

| Stage | Awareness | Cart | Checkout | Payment | Confirmation |

|-------|-----------|------|----------|---------|--------------|

| Actions | Browse, compare | Add items, review | Enter details | Pay | Receive |

| Emotions | 😊 Excited | 😐 Considering | 😀 Tedious | 😰 Anxious | 😊 Relieved |

| Pain Points | Too many options | Price unclear | Too many fields | Security fears | No ETA |

| Opportunities | Recommendations | Clear pricing | Autofill | Trust signals | Tracking |

Best Practices

Do's

  • Base on real user research, not assumptions
  • Include both digital and non-digital touchpoints
  • Map emotional highs and lows
  • Quantify with metrics where possible
  • Involve cross-functional stakeholders

Don'ts

  • Don't map the ideal journey - map reality
  • Don't focus only on your touchpoints
  • Don't ignore competitor alternatives
  • Don't skip the "boring" stages
  • Don't create and forget - iterate

Integration with Design

  1. Identify critical moments: Where do emotions shift?
  2. Prioritize pain points: Impact Γ— Frequency matrix
  3. Design interventions: Targeted improvements
  4. Measure success: Before/after metrics
  5. Iterate: Journey maps are living documents
