User Journey - A new user’s path
A push notification may have brought Kat back to the app after a week of inactivity.
User Journey - A “just browsing” user’s path
Without a campaign to keep this user engaged and heading toward their first purchase, they lost interest and became inactive. We’d consider this user to be active, but not especially engaged.
User Journey - A reengaged user’s path
Looks like a targeted campaign brought this user back from their lapsing status! From here, more campaigns could keep them active and, eventually, loyal.
User Journey - A power user’s path
Consistent engagement through campaigning will keep this user loyal over the long term!
A customer may or may not pass through all 4 user lifecycle stages and it might not be a linear progression - True or False
True - there are many possible User journeys and the progression may not be linear
