Summary
In today’s episode, I’m breaking down one of the easiest ways to collect ongoing market research for your business without constantly polling your audience or overcomplicating the process. Whether you’re brand new in business or years in, your audience is always evolving, which means your messaging, content, and offers should evolve too. I’m walking you through the exact ManyChat automation I use to collect real-time data from new Instagram followers so I can better understand what they actually need help with. This one simple automation helps me improve my content strategy, strengthen my messaging, grow my email list, promote my podcast, and naturally introduce my offers—all while collecting valuable audience insights in the background. If you’ve been guessing what your audience wants to hear from you, this episode will help you stop guessing and start using actual data to guide your content and marketing decisions. And if you’re not already using ManyChat, I also share where you can grab a discount to get started.
