What it does
Buyers remember a purchase better when you start with what they did, not with what they think. An order record already holds some of it: the day, the time, the device, what else was in the basket, and what it cost. If you read those facts to the buyer first, they correct you and fill in around them, and the memory comes back. This is the store version of the Buying story interview guide. The call is built like a short documentary: when did you first think about this, what happened that day, who else was involved, what did you do next. It never asks about features. Before each call, the sheet is pre-filled from the order and lists the gaps to ask about. After five to eight calls, it helps you group the stories by similar struggle.
You give it
- A list of recent buyers who agreed to a call, with a buyer code, order date, time, device, items and order value (no names, emails or phone numbers in this sheet)
- Your product and what it replaced
- Your reward, such as a small gift card (optional)
You get
- A pre-filled interview sheet per buyer, with the order facts to read out and gap questions
- A timeline template per buyer to fill in during the call
- A pattern note to complete after five to eight calls, grouping stories by similar struggle
- A short consent line to read at the start of each call
Use it when
- You want to know why people bought, and the reviews you have are short.
- You have a list of recent buyers and time for five to eight 20 to 30 minute calls.
- You want to go into each call with the facts in front of you, and not ask the same plain questions every time.
How to use it
- Start a chat with the skill. Open it if you added it to your AI, or copy it and paste it in.
- Ask buyers first. Only buyers who agreed to a call go on your list. Keep names and contact details in your own mail, not in this chat.
- Paste the order list using a buyer code for each, such as B1 and B2. Say what the product replaced.
- Run the calls within a few weeks of the purchase. Fill in the timeline as you talk.
- After five to eight calls, paste your timelines back and ask for the pattern note.
