Customer journey
Customer journey activity is the activity taken by contacts in the selected time period. We can only receive and display order data for customers who have an email address in ActiveCampaign and purchased a product in your connected store.
This section displays 4 phases of the customer journey:

Each stage is accompanied by metrics and a graph. Each metric shows where you are along with a benchmark.
