At UXPressia, we have held dozens of webinars, workshops, Q&A sessions, and other online events for customer, user, and employee experience practitioners.
Rewinding our video library, we picked up six event recordings to watch for everyone who builds customer journeys and experience maps, or would like to learn more about journey mapping, CX and UX.

“What is the buying journey? It starts with an idea, experience, or discovery. Then, many things happen and many people are involved.
