# Before You Launch, Poke Holes in Your Offer

 October 14, 2026

Launching something new? Don’t wait for customers to poke holes in it.

Paste your offer into ChatGPT, Gemini, or another AI chatbot. Include who it’s for, what’s included, the price, and the result you hope it helps people achieve. Then try these prompts in the same conversation:

## Ask an AI chatbot like ChatGPT or Gemini first.

1. ### Find the Hesitation
2. *“Read this as a potential buyer: \[paste offer\]. I’m trying to reach \[describe buyer\]. What are three specific reasons this person might hesitate to buy? Point to the wording or missing information that creates each concern. Label these as possible objections, not customer feedback.”*

1. ### Check the Alternatives
2. *“What other options might this buyer consider, including doing it themselves or doing nothing? Based only on the offer I shared, where is my case for choosing this option unclear? Don’t invent competitor claims.”*

### Bonus Read

[Read more](https://thoughtsbrewing.com/blog/marketing-quick-tips-39-use-customer-feedback-to-shape-strategy)

1. ### Make One Useful Change
2. *“Which concern should I address first, and why? Suggest one change I could make to the offer or how I explain it. Draft the revised wording, then tell me what I’d need to confirm with actual customers.”*

Perfection is not your goal at this stage. Focus instead on pressure-testing your ideas in a safe space before they go public.
