Designing the post-purchase journey: How Wayfair maps experience to impact
Lariane Rossanese -
Global Head of Product Design - Supply Chain Network, Enterprise & Service Tech,
Wayfair
Wayfair is a leading global e-commerce company specializing in home goods, with over 30 million products and 21.4 million active customers across North America and Europe, generating $11.9 billion in annual revenue.
Most organizations focus on the customer journey before purchase, but at Wayfair, the real CX challenges begin after the transaction. From managing accounts and deliveries to returns and problem resolution, the post-purchase experience is where loyalty is won or lost.
In this session, Lariane Rossanese, Global Head of Product Design for Wayfair’s Supply Chain Network, Enterprise & Service Tech, will share how her team is reimagining the post-purchase journey from the ground up. She will discuss how they map pain points, prioritize tech investments, and drive cross-functional alignment to deliver meaningful customer outcomes. Join this webinar to learn how CX design, powered by data and UX strategy, can transform the post-purchase experience.
Attendees will learn:
- How Wayfair blends UX and CX to redesign the post-purchase journey around customer and business outcomes.
- What it takes to prioritize design and tech efforts in a global, multi-stakeholder environment.
- Why journey mapping is only as powerful as the data behind it, and how metrics like CSAT, NPS, and others to guide decision-making.

How AI agents are revolutionizing customer journey orchestration
Customer journeys are no longer linear: they’re multi-touch and highly context-dependent, with customers often dipping in and out of channels. Traditional rules-based systems struggle to adapt in real time, often leaving customers frustrated with rigid flows or repetitive interactions.
AI agents offer a new way forward. By autonomously coordinating multiple processes, learning from customer behavior and adapting to mood and context, AI agents can orchestrate journeys that feel seamless and are personalized at scale, allowing brands to reengage customers across channels. In fact, Monday.com found that just over half (51 percent) of UK retailers believe that AI could handle most customer interactions within 5 years. CX Network's own research found that over a third of practitioners reported that journey orchestration technologies had a positive impact on profits in 2025.
In this session, we will explore how agentic AI is reshaping journey management to be smarter, more personalized and more efficient. We’ll move beyond old-school mapping exercises to show how AI agents can dynamically respond to customer needs, proactively suggest next-best actions, and orchestrate multi-agent workflows across channels – without human intervention. From hyperpersonalized onboarding flows to adaptive service, we’ll showcase practical examples of how AI can transform the way organizations manage and continuously improve customer journeys.
Attendees will learn:
- How AI agents differ from traditional automation tools in orchestrating dynamic and personalized journeys.
- Practical use cases where agentic AI enhances journey management, from onboarding to post-purchase service.
- Design considerations to ensure AI-driven journeys are transparent and customer centric.

Using data and insights from across customer journeys to optimize CX design
Customer journeys are made of many moving parts, with different channels and elements often sitting with – or across – siloed departments. This can lead to difficulty designing a truly connected customer journey, with key metrics and customer feedback fragmented and inaccessible. To optimize CX design, data must be captured and connected across every touchpoint. This not only allows practitioners to accurately measure performance, but illuminates opportunities for innovation.
In this session, we’ll explore how to bring together quantitative and qualitative insights from across journeys to create a more complete view of the customer experience. The focus will be on building a shared language between insights, analytics and design teams so that valuable insights don’t just sit in dashboards, but actively shape journeys that stand out.
Attendees will learn:
- How to integrate data from across journeys to reveal pain points and opportunities in CX.
- Practical techniques for translating insights into CX design improvements that deliver measurable impact.
- Ways to align analytics and design teams to ensure insights drive action, not just reporting.

Journey mapping in B2B and complex ecosystems
With long buying cycles, multiple stakeholders and journeys that span products, services and partner networks, mapping B2B journeys can be a major challenge. Mapping B2B experiences goes beyond capturing linear touchpoints and requires deep understanding of layered relationships, interdependencies and operational drivers that shape customer outcomes. In 2024, Visora found that B2B companies averaged 266 touchpoints to close a deal. Despite this, only 36 percent of B2B firms use journey mapping tools.
In this session, we will explore how to adapt journey mapping tools and methodologies for a multi-stakeholder, B2B setting. We will dive into different personas and moving parts, explaining how to capture journeys, identifying the moments that matter most and translating those insights into CX design improvements. We will provide practical strategies for making sense of complex decision paths and aligning internal teams around a shared view of the customer journey.
Attendees will learn:
- How to design journey maps that reflect the complexity of B2B buying cycles.
- Tools and techniques for uncovering emotional and operational drivers that influence B2B customer decisions.
- Ways of using journey maps as alignment tools and decision-making support across functions and partners.

Virtual roundtable: Designing omnichannel journeys for the modern customer
The modern customer doesn’t think in terms of “channels” – they simply expect to be able to move seamlessly between digital platforms and physical spaces while maintaining consistency. For organizations, orchestrating seamless omnichannel journeys remains a major challenge. Silos in data and ownership can leave customers frustrated.
In this virtual roundtable, attendees are invited to join us for a discussion about current and evolving customer expectations and to workshop strategies for designing journeys that meet customers where they are. We will explore how to unify data, align teams and, ultimately, deliver consistent, personalized experiences across touchpoints.
We will discuss:
- The omnichannel expectations of the customer of today.
- The role of data, technology and organizational alignment in orchestrating seamless journeys.
- How to design and deliver journeys that delight customers, connecting digital and physical channels.
This session is open to all attendees and CX Network members. The discussion will not be recorded.
