Phase one: consumers are influenced by an external stimulus
such as an advertisement or a friend’s opinion about a specific
product.
Phase two: consumers want to interact with the product and
as a result they visit the nearest store. At the store they
experience the First Moment Of Truth.
Phase three: if consumers have a positive experience they
will probably buy the product. Next, they will experience the
Second Moment of Truth when they actually use the product.

What is a Moment of Truth?

Jan Carlzon defined the Moment of Truth
as any time the customer comes into
contact with any aspect of a company,
however remote, he or she has an
opportunity to form an impression.

Why should I
care?

1. Your control on customers decreases
Internet has
empowered
customers to know
often more about
the product they
are going to buy
than the person
selling it to them.

2. Your communication with customers changes
Customers
compare on line
countless
international
competitors and
they buy the
most appealing
and customised
solution to their
needs.

Experience.

30.
Brand is guiding you
in every encounter
with your customer.

31.
Secondly, you need to create a
customer journey map and find out
your touchpoints on this map.

32.
The customer experience you offer may be
good, bad or indifferent and it is formulated in
your customers’ mind every time they interact
with your brand during your touchpoints.

Touchpoint¹
1 For the purposes of this presentation
we recognize touchpoint as the place
where a Moment of Truth takes
place.

Today though everything
is a touchpoint …our

accounts, our shop, our
people, our products and
