Hi everybody,

My name is Augusto, and I work as Digital Product Designer.

For my project in this class, I chose a different challenge. I mapped the customer experience for a music school in Brazil (where I live). I had some help for this challenge: my wife, who is piano and musicalization's teacher.

Personas

First I identified three personas to represent the main school customers:

Teenagers: they are interested on learn an instrument and proactively go to the school;
Parents: people that want them children playing some instrument, making music (and sometimes the child is not interested);
Elder people: people that are retired and want some new activities.

Touchpoints and Phases

After that I identified the main channels (touchpoints) and the phases that every customer follows.
With these information I made this map:

Journeys

With this map in hands I tried to understand how is the main path for each one of the persona described
