Description
Extract Voice of Customer quotes from forums, reviews, and social media. Use when gathering customer language for copywriting, understanding pain points, or building messaging frameworks.

VOC Research Skill

Purpose

Extract EXACT customer quotes from real sources to inform conversion copywriting with authentic customer language.

Core Principle

Verbatim quotes only - Never summarize. Never paraphrase. Capture the exact words customers use.

Data Sources

  • Reddit (industry subreddits)
  • ProductHunt (for SaaS)
  • Google Reviews
  • TrustPilot
  • Facebook Groups
  • Industry Forums
  • Support Tickets (internal)

Quote Categories (Per Methodology)

1. Pain Points

What frustrates them, what's broken, what keeps them up at night. Look for: complaints, rants, "I hate when...", "Why can't...", "This is ridiculous..."

2. Symptoms

Observable problems they describe, what they notice going wrong. Look for: descriptions of issues, "I noticed...", "Whenever I...", "The problem is..."

3. Dream Outcomes

What they wish for, ideal scenarios, the transformation they want. Look for: "I wish...", "If only...", "Wouldn't it be great if...", "Imagine if..."

4. Failed Solutions

Things they've tried that didn't work, past disappointments. Look for: "I tried X but...", "Nothing works", "I've already done..."

5. Buying Decisions

What made them choose or not choose, decision factors. Look for: "What sold me was...", "I finally decided because...", "The reason I switched..."

Gold Pattern Detection

Quotes that appear 3+ times across sources are GOLD for messaging. These represent common customer language that resonates widely.

Actions

  1. Search forums/reviews for target industry
  2. Extract exact quotes (copy-paste, no editing)
  3. Categorize into 5 categories
  4. Identify patterns (frequency analysis)
  5. Mark gold quotes (3+ occurrences)
  6. Store in voc_research table

  • During client onboarding
  • Before A/B test hypothesis creation

Quality Rules

  1. No AI-generated quotes - Must be real customer language
  2. Preserve typos and slang - Authenticity matters
  3. Include context - Where was this said? Why?
  4. Date quotes - Customer language evolves
  5. Verify sources - Cross-reference when possible
