What this prompt does

Takes evidence you already have (where past customers said they found you, what communities they've mentioned, what they searched) and identifies which specific online space is worth researching or engaging in, instead of defaulting to "try everything." For anyone about to spend hours mining Reddit, G2, or forums with no evidence any of them contain their actual customer.

Walks away with one named community or platform to prioritize, and the specific question to go verify it's active there.
