What You Will Gain from This Seminar To create hit products and marketing initiatives that deeply resonate with customers, it is necessary to accurately capture "potential needs (insights)" that even the customers themselves may not be aware of. However, in many companies, text data such as surveys and reviews is managed separately from voice data from business negotiations and interviews, and the reality is that this data is not being fully utilized.

In this seminar, we will unveil a next-generation customer understanding framework that combines two methods: using generative AI to objectively extract "overall market trends and important topics" from vast amounts of text data, and analyzing "deep psychological and emotional nuances behind statements" from actual negotiation and interview voice data.

By operating both the "macro objectivity" of text analysis and the "micro deep-dive" of voice analysis, we will share practical approaches to eliminate the biases of planners and identify the "winning path" to a guaranteed hit based on facts.
