What are everyone's favourite resources for customer research? I'm talking books, articles, courses or anything else you've found helpful!
Hi Tom,
I’ve made a blog post with Tools for Analyzing Your Competition https://boobo94.github.io/startup/resources/tools-analyzing-competition/. You can analyze your competition ad see where they are present there could be clients too.
Hope this helps you! Cheers!
Amazing thank you! Quite a few I hadn't heard of before on here!
Cool! I'm happy to hear that.
I love getting into the forums where customers are. Recently, I love joining Facebook groups where my customers hang out.
Agreed, nothing like meeting them where they hang out!
Hi Tom!
I use copyhackers' training to support me in research activities. Generally, it's what you'd expect - get out there and talk to people, mine reviews of similar products, and see if you can land some 1-on-1 interviews (recording them is a great way to get notes).
One of the most powerful questions I've heard is asking 'what brought you to [X] today'. It's a simple question you can ask via an after-purchase survey, but the results are always valuable.
Thanks! One-on-one is so useful if you can get people to talk to you. The best advice I've ever had was to listen out for when they get either excited or frustrated when talking about something. So simple but made such a difference for me!
