Artificial intelligence is everywhere you look these days. It’s a technological wonder that can help you with everything from brainstorming to product listings, and it’s not surprising that so many people are using it. You may be wondering where implementing AI and harnessing its power can help you the most, and we’d argue that research is the answer.
If you’ve ever slogged through a day (or several) of project research, you know just how time-consuming and exhausting it can be. Fortunately, we’re here to tell you that choosing the right AI research tools can help you power through the process of finding your niche and getting new products listed in your shop as quickly as possible.
How Can Using AI Research Tools Help You?
We’ll start with what might seem like an obvious question, which is this:
How can using AI research tools benefit you as a product creator and seller?
Here are some things that AI research tools can take off your plate.
- Hours of valuable time spent exploring one research rabbit hole after another, only to find out that your big idea isn’t feasible and won’t sell.
- Product creation time that lasts for days and doesn’t generate any meaningful profits for you because your audience just isn’t interested in what you’re selling.
- Missing out on the hottest and most profitable trends because you wasted time and didn’t get to them quickly enough.
It’s common for people who are new to product creation (and even some experienced sellers) to lose sight of their most valuable commodity: their time. When you choose and use the right AI tools, you can make product research a quick and painless process, leaving more of your time free to do other things.
Our Quick and Easy AI Market Niche Research Process
Now, we’ll walk you through the basic process of conducting niche research with AI tools, including an explanation of each step and valuable information about my new AI research tool that you can use to fast-track your research and get new products into your shop quickly.
Step 1: Use AI tools to narrow your focus
The first step is to narrow your focus. You can use a variety of AI tools to carry out this step, including ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Gemini, to get a handle on where you should focus your energy.
Let’s say you have an Etsy shop that already offers vintage images that focus on fashions from the past. Maybe you’d like to expand beyond fashion. You can create a prompt for an AI tool to suggest relevant niches. These might include things like vintage accessories, vintage jewelry, or even vintage home décor.
Step 2: Find Inspiration in Trending Topics
Before moving on, let’s explore what might happen if you’re new to product creation and selling and you haven’t even set up your online shop yet. AI research can still help you in one especially important way: figuring out what’s hot and what’s not and then using what’s hot as inspiration.
Every day, people head to Google in search of the things they’re interested in. These hot and trending topics offer insight into what people need and – most importantly – what they’re willing to buy. If you’re not sure where to focus your attention, you can simply ask AI to tell you what’s trending!
Step 3: Prompt AI Tools to Identify Profitable Niches and Subniches
One of the trickiest and most time-consuming things about niche research is that it’s difficult to identify the niches that are most likely to earn you a nice profit on the products you sell. Fortunately, AI can help!
Let’s continue with the above example and say you want to focus on vintage images that feature jewelry. You could ask AI to scan available products on Etsy and other online shops. The information you get in response to the prompt can help you figure out whether vintage jewelry images are likely to be a profitable niche for you – or, if you should move on to the next idea, instead.
Step 4: Use AI-Powered Research to Identify Gaps in the Market
Once you’ve focused on a niche that AI tells you will be profitable, the next step is to use AI research to identify gaps in the market. For example, say that you’ve settled on vintage jewelry and discovered that there’s a gap in the availability of images of vintage lockets or charm bracelets. Perfect – now you can capitalize on it!
There will always be competition, but that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t pursue your idea. AI can help you understand what people want and use that knowledge to provide it, thus increasing your sales and profits. That’s a core marketing trick, and AI makes differentiating yourself from competitors a simple (and quick) process.
