Customer journey paths

EF CRM is built around journey paths, not individual sequences. Each path covers a specific stage of the customer lifecycle and contains multiple automated sequences that activate based on customer behaviour, product interest, and CRM stage.

What is a journey path?

A journey path is a system of automated emails and messages designed to guide a customer through a specific stage of their decision process. Not every customer receives the same messages and within each path, different sequences activate based on CRM stage, behaviour, product interest, and campaign affiliation.


EF CRM stages

The overall goal is to move the customer step-by-step from Active Lead to Booking.

Go to the Your market tab to see which sequences are active for your market.


Important rules
Not everything is a journey
EFSET, Study & Work, and the WhatsApp Bot are not standalone journeys. They are sequences or personalisation variations within a journey path.
Channels are not journeys
Email and WhatsApp are channels, not journeys. Both are used within the same journey paths.
No fixed path
Customers move dynamically based on their actions and between journey paths and between sequences within a path.
