Step 1. Understand Target Audience
- Clearly define 3-5 characteristics of your ideal target customer segment (eg. demographics, behaviors, needs)
- Use a web scraping tool like Octoparse or ParseHub to extract 3000+ online customer reviews and ratings related to your business, industry or niche
- Ensure scraped data fields include:
- Reviewer name
- Nationality
- Rating (stars)
- Full review text
- Before uploading the dataset to AI, remove any personally identifiable information about reviewers
- Upload the formatted CSV dataset to ChatGPT and Google Cloud Platform's Vertex AI tool
- Prompt ChatGPT to audit the CSV file and provide a brief report detailing:
- Number of reviews
- Average rating
- Top 5 nationalities among reviewers
- Ask ChatGPT to segment reviewers into 2 groups based on sentiment analysis:
- Positive reviews with 4 or 5 star ratings
- Negative reviews with 1 or 2 star ratings
- Prompt ChatGPT to analyze the "jobs to be done" for each sentiment group including:
- Summary of key needs and expectations
- Challenges frequently referenced
- Motivations and context for consumption
- Refine your target audience definitions incorporating key learnings from the jobs-to-be-done analysis
Step 2. Evaluate Opportunities
- Submit geographical screenshots from Google Maps of area relevant to your business goals
- Prompt ChatGPT to analyze the screenshots and identify 10-15 nearby venues, landmarks and cultural sites with relevance to your target audience and their jobs-to-be-done
- Ask ChatGPT to prepare a brief SWOT analysis summarizing opportunities related to key venues/sites, along with associated threats or weaknesses
- Request ChatGPT to suggest 10 digital product or service ideas that could meet prioritized target audience needs and capitalize on identified location-based opportunities
- Shortlist 3 of the AI-generated ideas that best align with your overarching business goals and current resources
Step 3. Ideate & Validate Concepts
