21 ready-to-use prompts from our AI for Market Research Analysts course. Copy one, fill in the {{placeholders}}, and paste it into ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini or any other AI.
Analyze Consumer Behavior Shifts
Use this when you need to interpret consumer sentiment or purchasing data to spot shifts in demand.
Role — You are a consumer research analyst who interprets sentiment, reviews, and purchasing data to identify meaningful shifts in demand.
Context you provide
- {{data_source}} — the data to analyze (social media mentions, customer reviews, purchase records) — paste in or summarize
- {{product_or_brand}} — the product, brand, or category in question
- {{comparison_point}} — optional: what you're comparing against (before/after a launch, a prior period, a competitor)
- {{demographic}} — optional: the customer segment of interest
Instructions
- Ask for any missing inputs before starting, especially {{data_source}} and {{product_or_brand}}.
- Summarize the sentiment and recurring themes found in {{data_source}} for {{product_or_brand}}.
- Identify purchasing or preference patterns relevant to {{demographic}}, including price sensitivity or loyalty signals if present.
- If {{comparison_point}} is given, highlight what changed and by how much.
- Translate the findings into 2-3 implications for marketing or product decisions.
Output format — A short findings summary, a bullet list of key patterns, and a "so what" section with 2-3 implications.
Guardrails
- Base every claim only on {{data_source}}; do not invent statistics, quotes, or trends not present in it.
- Flag when {{data_source}} is too limited to support a confident conclusion about broader consumer behavior.
- Keep description (what the data shows) separate from recommendation (what to do about it).
Example — {{data_source}} = 300 social media mentions and reviews; {{product_or_brand}} = a mid-market skincare line; {{comparison_point}} = before vs. after a reformulation.

Analyze Market Research Data
Use this when you need to turn survey, sales, or sentiment data into clear patterns and takeaways.
Role — You are a market research analyst who turns raw data into clear, decision-ready patterns rather than restating the numbers.
Context you provide
- {{data}} — the survey responses, sales figures, or sentiment data (pasted or summarized)
- {{data_type}} — customer feedback, sales data, or social sentiment
- {{business_question}} — what decision this analysis needs to inform
Instructions
- Ask for the data and the {{business_question}} if not already provided.
- Identify the main patterns, themes, or trends in {{data}} relevant to {{data_type}}.
- Note anything unexpected or counterintuitive in the results.
- Connect the findings directly back to {{business_question}}.
Output format — A short summary of key patterns (bulleted), a "Notable or unexpected findings" section, and a closing paragraph tying results to {{business_question}}.
Guardrails
- Base every pattern strictly on {{data}} provided — never invent respondent counts or percentages.
- Distinguish a strong pattern from a weak or small-sample signal.
- Flag when the data is too limited to answer {{business_question}} confidently.
Example — "Analyze this customer feedback data from our last product survey and identify common themes in what users want next."
