Expanded Service Blueprint
It uses Miro's table widget so that you can easily reorder columns and merge cells across columns (as the example shows).
This has standard swim lanes, but adds:
Touchpoints, Channels - where or how is the customer interacting with us?
Aspects of Larry Marine's Task Analysis approach, including what I'm calling his Task Detractors - 3 swim lanes for tools, knowledge, workarounds; questions, issues, blockers; manually intensive, error-prone, and cognitive load. Looking at these details surfaces way opportunities to improve the flow and experience.
Metrics - how did we measure this or what numbers/data did we see related to this step? For the future state, what will we measure and how (success criteria)?
Risks, Policies, Considerations - I believe companies don't document current/potential risk enough. This might include laws and regulations we should consider.
Opportunities, Recommendations - Early insights and suggestions, step by step.
When would I use this?
Service design and service blueprinting.
After qualitative CX or UX research such as observations studies, contextual inquiry, interviews, and IDIs.
In the workshop to finalize your current or future state service blueprint.
Because your customer journey map isn't telling enough of the story.
Why doesn't this show emotions, feelings, or quotes?
It's already rather tall!
You can add emojis to the Customer Actions line if you'd like to summarize or show how they are likely to feel during that step.
This isn't a CJM. The focus is more on experiences and the interplay with our Onstage and Backstage people, processes, props, and systems.

Tell a Great Story
Works best for:
Storyboard
Tell a great story with the Storyboard template. Visualize your narrative using images, notes, and descriptions to map out each scene. This template is perfect for filmmakers, content creators, and marketers looking to craft compelling stories. It helps you organize your thoughts, sequence your story elements, and ensure a cohesive flow. Whether you're planning a video, a marketing campaign, or a presentation, this tool makes storytelling easier and more effective.
Infographic Template
Works best for:
Marketing, Desk Research, Documentation
As we bet you’ve experienced, data can get pretty dense and dry. But you need it to be compelling, memorable, and understandable. The solution? Infographics. These are tools that let you present information in a visually striking way and turn quantitative or qualitative data into stories that engage and resonate. Whoever you’ll be presenting to — customers, donors, or your own internal teams — our template will let you design an infographic that combines text and visuals to break down even the most complicated data.
Product Development Roadmap Template
Works best for:
Product Management, Software Development
Product development roadmaps cover everything your team needs to achieve when delivering a product from concept to market launch. Your product development roadmap is also a team alignment tool that offers guidance and leadership to help your team focus on balancing product innovation and meeting your customer’s needs. Investing time in creating a roadmap focused on your product development phases helps your team communicate a vision to business leaders, designers, developers, project managers, marketers, and anyone else who influences meeting team goals.
Pass the Paper
Collaborative brainstorming is an excellent method to facilitate a group of individuals in generating a diverse range of innovative concepts related to a specific problem. By encouraging participants to build upon each other's ideas, the process allows for rapid evolution and unexpected transformations. This collaborative approach, known as Round Robin, emphasizes collective authorship, with each person contributing their unique perspective. The ultimate outcome is a collection of ideas that surpasses the imagination of any individual.
Job Map Template
Works best for:
Design, Desk Research, Mapping
Want to truly understand your consumers’ mindset? Take a look at things from their perspective — by identifying the “jobs” they need to accomplish and exploring what would make them “hire” or “fire” a product or service like yours. Ideal for UX researchers, job mapping is a staged process that gives you that POV by breaking the “jobs” down step by step, so you can ultimately offer something unique, useful, and different from your competitors. This template makes it easy to create a detailed, comprehensive job map.
Diary Template
Works best for:
Design
The Diary Template is an effective research tool to gain insights into individuals' internal processes as they document their encounters with a specific product, service, or matter. Unlike real-time interactions, journaling is usually conducted asynchronously over an extended period of time, enabling deliberate reflection that other methods may not facilitate. This asynchronous nature encourages individuals to express more elaborate accounts of their emotions and viewpoints, resulting in profound and stimulating responses.
