The Customer Value Journey is a framework that outlines the stages a potential patient goes through before becoming a loyal advocate for your wellness clinic. By understanding this journey, you can create targeted marketing campaigns that guide individuals through each stage, ultimately leading to increased patient acquisition and long-term growth.
The 8 Stages of the Customer Value Journey
Moving Patients Through the Value Journey

The #1 Mistake Marketers Make
