In this week’s Good Masterclass, I unpack one of the most powerful (yet underutilized) tools in the entire Force for Good System™: the 17-Step Customer Journey.

Most founders assume their customer’s journey is obvious. But when you actually map it—moment by moment—you start to see exactly where trust is built… or broken.

This episode will show you how to stop guessing and start designing a customer experience that drives loyalty, referrals, and scale.

Whether you’re trying to increase retention, clarify your messaging, or make your company feel more human—this is where you start.

Key Takeaways:

• You’re not selling a product—you’re guiding an experience. Every customer journey tells a story. The question is: are you the guide they trust?
• Breakdowns in retention, referrals, and revenue often stem from invisible gaps. Most happen long before the sale—or right after.
• Every department in your company is part of the customer journey. This tool isn’t just for marketing—it’s for operations, product, and service too.
• Trust isn’t built at once—it’s built in 17 small steps. And the businesses that scale are the ones that obsess over those moments.

Burning Questions Answered:

1.Why do we lose great leads after strong first impressions?

2.How can I build more trust without spending more on marketing?

3.What’s the real reason people buy—and stay?

4.How do I get my team aligned on what matters most to the customer?

5.Where should I focus if I want more referrals and loyalty?

Closing Thoughts:

very visionary founder wants to grow with purpose and integrity. But if your customer journey is fragmented, unclear, or reactive—you’ll always be chasing momentum instead of creating it.

This isn’t about perfection. It’s about presence. It’s about walking through your business through your customer’s eyes, moment by moment, and asking:

“What does she feel right here?”

When you do that—everything changes. Trust deepens. Growth accelerates. And your company becomes the one your customer never stops talking about.
