How it Works ⚙️
How it Works ⚙️ This workflow is your agency’s secret weapon. It’s a multi-AI-agent system that automates the entire process of competitor and market research, providing you with a complete strategic analysis in minutes. Digital Reconnaissance (Agent 1): The workflow is triggered with a client's business name and industry. The first AI agent, powered by Apify, immediately begins a deep dive into the market to identify and scrape data on the client’s top competitors. Strategic Analysis (Agent 2): All the raw data from Agent 1 is sent to the second AI agent, powered by OpenAI (GPT-4). This agent performs a sophisticated analysis to summarize competitor messaging, identify their audience, and generate a full SWOT analysis for your client. Report & Strategy Generation (Agent 3): A third AI agent, also using OpenAI, takes the strategic analysis and writes a professional, persuasive report. This report is then automatically populated into a pre-designed Google Docs template, ready for review. Instant Delivery: The final report is automatically sent to your internal team via Slack, allowing you to start your strategy meeting almost instantly after the workflow is triggered. Setup Steps 🛠️ Get Your Apify Actor: Log in to Apify and find a suitable Actor for web scraping (e.g., Google Search Results Scraper). Copy the Actor ID to use in the n8n workflow. Prepare Your Report Template: Create a new Google Doc to serve as your report template. Use placeholders like {{ client_name }}, {{ report_content }}, and {{ client_industry }} to define where the AI-generated text will go. Copy the document ID from the Google Doc URL and save it for later. Import the Workflow: Copy the provided workflow JSON and import it into your n8n instance. Configure Credentials: Apify: Add your Apify API Key. OpenAI: Add your OpenAI API Key. Google Docs: Add your OAuth2 credential. Slack: Add your Bot Token credential. Customize Workflow Nodes: Node 2 (Apify): Paste your Actor ID here. You can also customize the search queries in the Input JSON to be more specific. Node 6 (Google Docs): Paste your template's Document ID here. Ensure the Values match the placeholders you created in your template. Node 7 (Slack): Replace [YOUR MARKETING TEAM SLACK CHANNEL ID] with the correct channel ID where you want the report delivered. Activate & Test: Once all settings are configured, save the workflow. Click the "Inactive" toggle to make it live. Run a test by manually entering a client's name and industry to ensure the data flows correctly and the report is delivered.
