Hey there!

Already nailed your first product or niche on Amazon? That’s awesome! 

But what’s next? 🤔

Expanding into a new product category can unlock major growth—but only if you choose wisely. 

Instead of guessing or chasing fads, you can use ChatGPT to brainstorm category expansions based on your existing brand, customer needs, and market gaps.

Here’s how to use AI to explore your next best move 👇

Step 1: Start with Your Core Product

The easiest path to expansion? Build from what’s already working.

Prompt:

“My current bestseller is a BPA-free collapsible water bottle for hikers. Based on this, suggest 10 complementary product categories I could expand into.”

💡 AI will generate related ideas like:

  • Reusable utensils for camping

  • Eco-friendly lunchboxes

  • Hydration backpacks

  • Sustainable cleaning brushes for bottles

This helps you stay aligned with your brand while growing your catalog.

Step 2: Match Ideas to Customer Pain Points

Want to stand out in a new category? Solve an actual problem.

Prompt:

“What are common pain points among eco-conscious outdoor enthusiasts that I could solve with new products?”

ChatGPT might identify:

From here, you can brainstorm products that address those issues directly.

Step 3: Analyze Trends Before Jumping In

Make sure your new idea has momentum.

Prompt:

“Are there any growing product trends related to sustainable outdoor gear or eco-friendly kitchenware?”

ChatGPT can scan trend summaries and recommend specific niches with rising demand—before they get saturated.

💡 Bonus: Combine with tools like Google Trends or Helium 10 for validation.

Step 4: Validate With Competitive Research

Ask ChatGPT to help you compare the opportunity landscape.

Prompt:

“How competitive is the reusable silicone bag category on Amazon? What are top-rated listings missing?”

ChatGPT can help you spot gaps—like poor branding, lack of features, or unclear listings—that give you a way in.

Step 5: Get Help with Branding Ideas for the New Category

Consistency matters when entering a new niche. In this way, you’ll get ideas that keep your tone, values, and audience aligned as you grow.

Prompt:

“Suggest a product name and brand messaging for a new eco-friendly lunchbox that aligns with my current hydration-focused brand.”

Expansion doesn’t have to feel like a shot in the dark.

With ChatGPT, you can:

Brainstorm smart category ideas

Align expansion with your customer base

Spot real market gaps before your competitors

Test new product ideas faster and more creatively

Your next best product might already be one conversation away—just ask.
