Building Your Customer Journey

From a simple business description to a complete pipeline — in under a minute

Before You Begin

Customer journey mapping is usually something big businesses do with a team of marketers sketching out every touchpoint. Zyntro does it for you. Answer two questions about how your business works, and the AI builds a complete pipeline structure — stages distributed across FIND, WIN, KEEP, and GROW, each with entry criteria, exit criteria, descriptions, and fulfillment requirements.

The setup is accessed from Sales > Customer Journey.

Steps

Choose your business model

The setup page presents six business model cards. Select the one closest to how you sell:

B2B SaaS — Subscription-based software with tiered pricing, usage-based billing, or freemium-to-paid conversion.

Consultative — Solutions that require discovery and dialogue: coaches, consultants, agencies, and service providers who understand needs before proposing.

High-Ticket Items — Large-value, high-trust sales requiring deeper nurturing and often multiple decision-makers. Realtors, executive coaches, B2B service professionals.

E-Commerce — Online storefronts for physical goods, digital products, or services with shorter decision cycles.

Transactional — Quick, one-time purchases where speed and volume matter more than depth of relationship.

Relational — Trust-based, repeat business models: accountants, designers, therapists, and client-based professionals.

Your selection optimizes the pipeline structure for your sales cycle — a consultative business gets more WIN-phase stages than a transactional one.

If none of the models fit perfectly, choose the closest match. The AI uses your business description (next step) to customize the stages regardless of the model selected.

Describe how customers progress

In the text area labeled "In a couple of sentences, describe how your customers progress their journey with you," write a natural-language description of your sales process.

Example: "When a new lead comes in, I call them, book an appointment for a demo/meeting to understand their needs, then propose a solution and close the deal."

You do not need to be precise or comprehensive. Focus on what you do to move someone from first contact to a sale. The AI fills in the gaps using your brand context, offerings, and the business model you selected.

The placeholder text provides a good example. Write how *you* actually work — not how you think you should work. The AI builds the pipeline around your reality, not an idealized process.

Select your industry alignment

Choose the industry category closest to your business: SaaS, Real Estate, Coaching, Consulting, E-commerce, or Other. This is auto-selected based on your business model choice but can be changed.

Build the pipeline

Click Build My Customer Journey. Zyntro’s AI takes over:

1. It analyzes your brand definition, offerings, audience segments, and the business description you provided
2. It runs multiple simulations to determine the most predictable, repeatable journey map for a business like yours
3. It produces a complete pipeline structure: stages distributed across FIND, WIN, KEEP, and GROW, each with names, descriptions, entry criteria, exit criteria, and fulfillment requirements

This takes 30-60 seconds. A progress bar shows the processing status. When complete, you are redirected to the Board Settings page where you can review and customize the result.

Review the AI-generated pipeline

The Board Settings page shows your new pipeline as a "Growth Engine Roadmap" — a visual list of all stages organized by phase. Each stage displays its name, phase color (FIND=yellow, WIN=green, KEEP=blue, GROW=pink), and a summary.

An alert at the top confirms: "Zyntro has conducted a deep analysis of your brand, offerings and business model and has devised a complete [N]-stage pipeline structure for managing your customer journey and lifecycle from start to finish."

Click any stage to view and edit its details: name, description, entry criteria, exit criteria, and stage actions. You can accept the AI’s structure as-is or refine it to match your specifics.

The AI’s pipeline is a strong starting point based on your brand intelligence. Most users keep the structure and refine the entry/exit criteria to match their specific workflows.

Result

Your customer journey pipeline is built and active. Contacts entering your CRM will be assigned to the appropriate stage based on their source and engagement level. SI will begin using the pipeline phases to calibrate its communication frequency, QC autonomy, and channel selection.

You can view your contacts flowing through the pipeline in the Kanban board at Sales > My Boards.

Info: The pipeline structure also feeds directly into SI settings. The phases you see here (FIND, WIN, KEEP, GROW) are the same phases in **Settings > Segmentation Intelligence > Comms Frequency** and **Quality Control**. Cadence limits, autonomy toggles, and communicator assignments are all organized by these phases.
