Customer Journey Micro‑Surveys

A “customer journey” is made up of touchpoints—small moments that shape trust, confidence, and loyalty. Micro‑surveys help you measure those moments with 1–2 questions while the experience is still fresh.

7 high‑ROI micro‑survey touchpoints

Touchpoints span the full journey (before purchase, during purchase, after purchase), and measuring a few key ones can reveal where customers get stuck.

1) First visit (landing page)

Goal: find unclear messaging early.

Micro‑survey

“Did you find what you came here for today?” (Yes / Not yet)
Follow‑up: “What were you looking for?”

2) Pricing page

Goal: reduce “confused but silent” drop-off.

Micro‑survey

“How clear is our pricing?” (Not clear → Very clear)
Follow‑up: “What’s unclear?”

3) Signup / create account

Goal: identify friction in forms, verification, and expectations.

Micro‑survey

“How easy was it to create your account?” (Very difficult → Very easy)
Follow‑up: “What slowed you down?”

4) Onboarding milestone (first value)

Goal: confirm the “aha moment” happens quickly.

Micro‑survey

“How confident do you feel using VividSurvey?” (Not confident → Very confident)
Follow‑up: “What should we explain better?”

5) Feature usage (in‑app)

Goal: learn what’s helpful vs confusing; in‑app surveys are ideal when the customer just used the feature.

Micro‑survey

“How helpful was [feature]?” (Not helpful → Very helpful)
Follow‑up: “What would make it more useful?”

6) Support resolved

Goal: measure the support touchpoint (a major journey moment for many customers).

Micro‑survey

“Did we solve your problem today?” (Yes / Partially / No)
Follow‑up: “What’s still unresolved?”

7) Renewal / cancellation intent

Goal: catch churn signals early and learn the real reasons.

Micro‑survey

“How likely are you to renew?” (Not likely → Very likely)
Follow‑up: “What’s the biggest factor in that decision?”

A simple rollout plan (without survey fatigue)

Start with a few touchpoints and expand once you’re acting on the results; touchpoint mapping works best when it’s kept practical and tied to ownership.

Week 1

Add 2 micro‑surveys: pricing page + onboarding milestone.

Week 2

Add 1 support micro‑survey + route low scores to follow-up.

Week 3+

Add 1 feature survey and 1 renewal survey; review themes monthly.
