When conducting the research, general scientific methods of analysis and synthesis, system-structural analysis, comparison, systematic, logical generalization were used. The article proposes to apply the concept of impression design, which allows you to align the goals and instruments of digital marketing with interaction points on the consumer’s digital journey by areas of impression detection. This ensures the formation of a unique experience for each user based on positive impressions that are planned by the enterprise. For impression planning, it is important to form a list of interaction points based on the constructed CJM-map of the consumer’s path. Simultaneously with the methods and instruments of digital marketing of retail enterprises, it is recommended to use the latest approaches in planning consumer experiences, which includes the design of experiences. The design and delivery of planned experiences occurs at every interaction point in the consumer journey in the digital environment, both online and offline.
