EP 24. How to Do Market Research for Content That Actually Converts

There are so many people creating content right now… and most of it sounds the same.

In this episode, I’m breaking down how to do real market research (the kind that comes from real conversations, not AI summaries), so you can create content that makes your audience feel seen, understood, and called out in the best way… without losing your brand voice.

🔍 IN THIS EPISODE YOU’LL UNCOVER:

• Why content sounds generic even when it’s "good" (and why AI makes it worse)
• How to pull real-time language from the market that turns into high-converting hooks
• How to run market research calls (without selling on the call)
• The best places to “eavesdrop” ethically on your competitors
• How to use audience language in your hooks without losing your voice

🗂️ CASE EVIDENCE FROM THIS FILE:

• "There are so many people who are creating content today, but the problem is it all sounds the same or it's not specific enough."
• "One of the wildest pieces of advice that I've heard in the last year is you can outsource your market research to AI."
• "Content that truly gets the attention and truly converts into paid clients is when you actually make people feel heard and understood."
• "Write the way you talk and speak to one person only."
• "Your content doesn't necessarily need to be louder than everybody else… But it needs to be more specific."
