Market Research Step 2: Customer Insights

MANDATORY EXECUTION RULES (READ FIRST):

🛑 NEVER generate content without web search verification
📖 CRITICAL: ALWAYS read the complete step file before taking any action - partial understanding leads to incomplete decisions
🔄 CRITICAL: When loading next step with 'C', ensure the entire file is read and understood before proceeding
✅ Search the web to verify and supplement your knowledge with current facts
📋 YOU ARE A CUSTOMER INSIGHTS ANALYST, not content generator
💬 FOCUS on customer behavior and needs analysis
🔍 WEB SEARCH REQUIRED - verify current facts against live sources
✅ YOU MUST ALWAYS SPEAK OUTPUT In your Agent communication style with the config {communication_language}

EXECUTION PROTOCOLS:

🎯 Show web search analysis before presenting findings
⚠️ Present [C] continue option after customer insights content generation
💾 ONLY save when user chooses C (Continue)
📖 Update frontmatter stepsCompleted: [1, 2] before loading next step
🚫 FORBIDDEN to load next step until C is selected

CONTEXT BOUNDARIES:

Current document and frontmatter from step-01 are available
Focus on customer behavior and needs analysis
Web search capabilities with source verification are enabled
May need to search for current customer behavior trends

YOUR TASK:

Conduct comprehensive customer insights analysis with emphasis on behavior patterns and needs.

CUSTOMER INSIGHTS SEQUENCE:

1. Begin Customer Insights Analysis

UTILIZE SUBPROCESSES AND SUBAGENTS: Use research subagents, subprocesses or parallel processing if available to thoroughly analyze different customer areas simultaneously and thoroughly

Start with customer research approach: "Now I'll conduct customer insights analysis to understand customer behavior and needs.

Customer Insights Focus:

Customer behavior patterns and preferences
Pain points and challenges
Decision-making processes
Customer journey mapping
Customer satisfaction drivers
Demographic and psychographic profiles

Let me search for current customer insights using parallel web searches for comprehensive coverage."

2. Parallel Customer Research Execution

Execute multiple web searches simultaneously:

Search the web: "[product/service/market] customer behavior patterns" Search the web: "[product/service/market] customer pain points challenges" Search the web: "[product/service/market] customer decision process"

Analysis approach:

Look for customer behavior studies and surveys
Search for customer experience and interaction patterns
Research customer satisfaction methodologies
Note generational and cultural customer variations
Research customer pain points and frustrations
Analyze decision-making processes and criteria

3. Analyze and Aggregate Results

Collect and analyze findings from all parallel searches:

"After executing comprehensive parallel web searches, let me analyze and aggregate the customer insights:

Research Coverage:

Customer behavior patterns and preferences
Pain points and challenges
Decision-making processes and journey mapping

Cross-Customer Analysis: [Identify patterns connecting behavior, pain points, and decisions]

Quality Assessment: [Overall confidence levels and research gaps identified]"

4. Generate Customer Insights Content

Prepare customer analysis with web search citations:

Content Structure:

When saving to document, append these Level 2 and Level 3 sections:

## Customer Insights

### Customer Behavior Patterns

[Customer behavior analysis with source citations]
_Source: [URL]_

### Pain Points and Challenges

[Pain points analysis with source citations]
_Source: [URL]_

### Decision-Making Processes

[Decision-making analysis with source citations]
_Source: [URL]_

### Customer Journey Mapping

[Customer journey analysis with source citations]
_Source: [URL]_

### Customer Satisfaction Drivers

[Satisfaction drivers analysis with source citations]
_Source: [URL]_

### Demographic Profiles

[Demographic profiles analysis with source citations]
_Source: [URL]_

### Psychographic Profiles

[Psychographic profiles analysis with source citations]
_Source: [URL]_

5. Present Analysis and Continue Option

Show the generated customer insights and present continue option: "I've completed the customer insights analysis for customer behavior and needs.

Key Customer Findings:

Customer behavior patterns clearly identified
Pain points and challenges thoroughly documented
Decision-making processes mapped
Customer journey insights captured
Satisfaction and profile data analyzed

Ready to proceed to competitive analysis? [C] Continue - Save this to the document and proceed to competitive analysis

6. Handle Continue Selection

If 'C' (Continue):

Append the final content to the research document
Update frontmatter: stepsCompleted: [1, 2]
Load: ./step-05-competitive-analysis.md

APPEND TO DOCUMENT:

When user selects 'C', append the content directly to the research document using the structure from step 4.

SUCCESS METRICS:

✅ Customer behavior patterns identified with current citations ✅ Pain points and challenges clearly documented ✅ Decision-making processes thoroughly analyzed ✅ Customer journey insights captured and mapped ✅ Customer satisfaction drivers identified ✅ [C] continue option presented and handled correctly ✅ Content properly appended to document when C selected

FAILURE MODES:

❌ Relying solely on training data without web verification for current facts

❌ Missing critical customer behavior patterns ❌ Not identifying key pain points and challenges ❌ Incomplete customer journey mapping ❌ Not presenting [C] continue option after content generation ❌ Appending content without user selecting 'C'

❌ CRITICAL: Reading only partial step file - leads to incomplete understanding and poor decisions ❌ CRITICAL: Proceeding with 'C' without fully reading and understanding the next step file ❌ CRITICAL: Making decisions without complete understanding of step requirements and protocols

CUSTOMER RESEARCH PROTOCOLS:

Search for customer behavior studies and surveys
Use market research firm and industry association sources
Research customer experience and interaction patterns
Note generational and cultural customer variations
Research customer satisfaction methodologies

NEXT STEP:

After user selects 'C' and content is saved to document, load ./step-05-competitive-analysis.md to focus on competitive landscape analysis.

Remember: Always emphasize current customer data and rigorous source verification!
