Using LLMs like ChatGPT for Data Analysis

One of the most useful and important use cases of tools like ChatGPT for marketers is the ability to analyze data-sets in seconds and provide useful insights without us having to manually review everything. Simple paste in your data and ask it to summarize its findings with percentages.

Here is a real output I received from asking ChatGPT to analyze some simple Google Search Console data and summarize the findings.

“In summary, the data analysis reveals the following trends:

• Google Search Impressions increased by approximately 1.99%, indicating improved visibility on Google search.
• Google Search Clicks saw a significant increase of approximately 25.40%, indicating higher user engagement and interaction with the search results.
• The Click-through Rate (CTR) increased by approximately 28.57%, indicating improved effectiveness in attracting user clicks.
• Average Position slightly decreased by approximately 1.58%, which suggests a potential need for further optimization efforts to improve search rankings.

Overall, the trends suggest positive growth in impressions, clicks, and CTR, reflecting improved visibility and performance in Google search. However, the slight decrease in average position indicates the need for further optimization to enhance search rankings and maximize performance."

A ChatGPT Prompt for Simple Marketing Data Analysis

You can use the below prompt to analyse Google Search Console data on a weekly basis. You can also ask ChatGPT to re-write these prompts for different tools. Simply ask “Rewrite the above for Google Analytics metrics..” etc. etc. The options are endless.

"Please analyze the marketing data for the week ending [date]. The data includes the following metrics: Google Search Impressions, Google Search Clicks, CTR (%), and Average Position. Please provide an overview of the trends observed in each metric, including the percentage changes compared to the previous week. Additionally, offer insights or recommendations based on the trends identified to optimize our marketing strategies moving forward."

There is an endless list of things you can ask an LLM to do. The key to improving your work-life is to figure out which manual and time consuming tasks are best assigned to an LLM rather than trying to do absolutely everything through something like ChatGPT. Trying to do everything will mean you spend more time using ChatGPT than actually doing the work itself.
