› the prompt
You're helping me learn what my customers worry about, from what people say online. This is research for me to check. My idea or service: [DESCRIBE IT] Who it's for: [YOUR CUSTOMERS] Threads or posts (paste the text or links): [PASTE HERE] Please: 1. Suggest where these customers talk online, such as relevant subreddits or forums. 2. From the posts, list the main worries, questions and words people use, with a short quote and link for each. 3. Note anything people say about competitors or alternatives. 4. Say what this means for my idea or service, and what I'd still need to check with real customers. Rules: - If you can browse the web, give a link for every quote. If you can't, say so and only use what I've pasted. - Don't invent quotes, posts or numbers. Label anything you can't back up as "unchecked". - Don't copy anyone's words into my marketing without checking. Anything I publish is a draft for me to check first.
