they curious about.

Customer Journey Path
Ask
Act
Customer is in active stage They constantly ask and search
about brand through their community and the brand itself.
This stage is the important factor of purchase decision
The highest engagement between customer & brand How we deal with complain
is the most important interaction
Advocate
The phase where customer’s give advocacy/suggestion
to others about your brand
Yes you may argue with me. Because you’re an AIESECer and all AIESECer knows that we’re providing leadership development through
exchange. Is it can be understandable to our costumer? Are we saying it the right way?
As a STRANGER, costumer needs some clear information on what we sell, so the first problem comes from ourselves. Are we doing attraction
the right way with the right message? Are leadership still relevant to use in attraction?
And this is where the battle between PR and MKT happened. PR want us to be seen as Leadership
organization but hey we’re trying to make money out of exchange dude. And leadership suppose to be in the Value Delivery stage not in Attraction
stage! Yes this is still confusing me
Well our first touch with costumer not always comes from virtually, sometimes it can happened physically
on a form of booth.
The question is, how convincing our booth to costumer? Are they provided with safety and security? Based on what I observe, when our
costumer comes to booth we offer them registration form. Yes. Local ors with 20K price. Or sometimes only have to fill attendance list and followed up.
With not that interesting booth. -,- Sometimes the ‘booth’ only a table with poster on it.
I know, we will no longer use it (local ors), and every applicant should directly apply to expa. But here’s
the thing. 1. AIESEC itself is a premium brand. Why I call it
premium brand? Bro you should pay 2.5 million rupiah for this ‘voluntary’ experience and they
still have to pay for their sh*t. 2. We treat this premium brand with retail
marketing system. This is where our costumer are in doubt with us.
I know that we’re trying to develop so many people with high target number. And sometimes we did sell these things not elegantly we mistreat it like it’s not
a premium brand. That’s why I think the way we market our program need to be improve. And it’s not
hard. What I’m suggesting is:
This is what Bandung will trying to innovate for this winter. We are trying to give our costumer something that they can be brought home rather than only waiting for followed up or only registration form. This is EP Package. Contains of: 1. Tote bag. Our subliminal promotional
tools, where they can carry it around with our name and website on it.
2. Booklet for parents. Yes. Parents are the ultimate decision maker for exchange, thus, we need to give them clear information about our program and this could increase our conversion rate. Yes this is physical booklet not virtual booklet.
3. Registration form. Bandung will still use physical registration form because from what I observe. A lot of people feel insecure for virtual form. They are not aware of their email and sometimes not followed up.
How much is this EP Package cost? 30K rupiah. What if they don’t want to spend their money just for registration? Wait until they hear about Exchange fee. Do u generate any profit from it? Until now, I still think 20K rupiah is the Cost of goods sold for it. (modal). And another 10K rupiah is for finance. So finance will make fundraising goods (notebook for example, or bracelet) and we put it in our EP Package, so seems like they bought our fundraising. And yes we have profit from it but not much.
With all of the EP Package thing. We have treat our brand like a premium brand and it will make our next step easier on costumer journey. Which are, converting them to our costumer. It have solved; 1. Problems with parents permission since we give the
parents booklet. 2. Applicant who are not apply after buy form. Because
they have something to brought home and they have sense of belonging. And they have spent 30k on it so they will think it’s better for them to continue their journey as costumer.
3. Our brand finally recognized as a premium brand and they (our costumer) will told their experience or they friends will ask them about the thing that they carry around with ‘I’m a global citizen’ written on it.
