Service Blueprint by Liz Possee Corthell
Welcome to my Service Blueprint Template, designed to help you visualize and optimize the entire service process.
This template is an essential tool for service designers, managers, and teams aiming to enhance customer experience and streamline service delivery.
In this template you'll find areas to map your team's:
Persona: Who is going on this particular journey and using this service at this time? This section will allow you to consider your user, and key factors that put them on their journey with your service.
User journey: Track every step your customers take, from initial contact through to the completion of the service. This section helps you understand the customer journey from their perspective.
User feelings and actions: Track what your users are thinking and feeling through their journey. This section should ideally be filled in with verbatims from your user research so that you can visualize real findings alongside your journey.
Interactions: Detail the interactions and activities that occur directly between service staff and customers. This includes face-to-face communications, phone calls, digital interactions, and more.
Challenges and Opportunities: Map user's frustrations, challenges, or pain points while interacting with your service, and the opportunities to improve these pain points.
Backend Systems: Outline the internal processes and actions that support the user's journey but are invisible to customers.
Support Processes: Identify the systems and processes that underpin both user's journey, and the backend systems to ensure smooth service delivery.
Benefits:
Enhanced Clarity: Visualize the relationships and dependencies across different components of the service process.
Improved Efficiency: Identify redundancies and gaps in the service process, allowing for more streamlined operations.
Better User Experience: Understand and improve the user's journey by refining interactions and eliminating pain points.
Usage:
This template is versatile and can be adapted to a wide range of services, from retail and hospitality to healthcare and education. Simply fill in each section with details specific to your service to create a comprehensive overview of your service delivery process. To start, you'll find the first two columns filled out mapping Kayla's journey to set up an appointment with her new primary care physician, to show you how to use each of the rows.

Flowchart Template
Works best for:
Flowcharts, Mapping, Diagrams
Trying to explain a process or workflow to your team — or just wrap your head around it yourself? Sometimes the best way is to see it, and that’s when you create a flowchart. Using common shapes (generally just ovals, rectangles, diamonds, and arrows), a flowchart shows you the direction a process or workflow goes and the order of steps. Beyond giving you a clear understanding, you’ll also be able to see potential flaws and bottlenecks, which helps you refine and improve your process and create a better product more efficiently.
IT Project Timeline
Works best for:
Timeline, Planning
The IT Project Time Line template is essential for managing IT projects efficiently. It allows you to visualize project milestones, deadlines, and key tasks in a clear, chronological format. Track progress, allocate resources, and ensure timely delivery of your IT projects. Ideal for project managers and IT teams aiming to stay organized and meet critical deadlines.
Monthly Planner Template
Works best for:
Operations, Strategic Planning, Project Planning
To knock out every task and accomplish every goal for the month, it helps to take a big picture, 10,000 foot view of things—meaning a 30-day view. That’s why a monthly calendar can come in so handy, especially on bigger projects. Use our template to create a visual representation that helps you track and space out every deadline and to-do, both for individuals and full teams. You’ll even be able to customize it your way, with images, video, and sticky notes.

Planning, Strategy

Flyer Maker Template
Works best for:
Design, Marketing
Whether it’s a client party or a nonprofit fundraiser, your event needs one key thing to be a smashing success: people to show up. That’s why promoting it is such an important part of the planning—and creating and sending a flyer is the first step. These single-page files will grab your guests’ attention and give them the key details, such as the time, date, and location (and if it’s a fundraiser, who/what the funds will benefit). This template will let you lay out text and customize a flyer design.
Daily Schedule Template
Works best for:
Planning, Project Management
The Daily Schedule Template is a vital tool for managing daily routines efficiently. It helps plan and organize tasks, appointments, and priorities with great precision.
