Step 1:
◦ Role & Task: "Act as a diligent market researcher specializing in UK businesses. For the TikTok Shop UK business named '[Business Name/Handle]' with postcode '[Postcode]', conduct a real-time web search to find the following publicly available information. For every piece of information, provide a direct, specific URL link to its source. If information is not found, state 'Not Found'."
◦ Search Avenues:
▪ Their TikTok profile: "Search their TikTok profile for contact details."
▪ Major UK e-commerce marketplaces (e.g., Amazon UK, eBay UK) for associated seller profiles: "Check Amazon UK and eBay UK for seller profiles under this business name."
▪ Their own website (if any) for contact pages, 'About Us' sections, or footers: "Identify their official website and search it thoroughly for contact details, focusing on 'Contact Us' or 'About Us' pages. Verify any evidence of e-commerce platforms (e.g., Shopify, WooCommerce)."
▪ Companies House UK for official registration details: "Look for an entry on Companies House UK."
▪ Reputable UK online business directories (e.g., Yell.com, FreeIndex.co.uk): "Search popular UK online business directories like Yell.com for their listing."
▪ Google Maps for business locations and associated contact info: "Use Google Maps to locate their business based on the postcode and business name, and extract any contact information listed there."
◦ Data Integrity Focus: "Only provide information that is publicly available and directly verifiable with a specific URL link immediately following the information. DO NOT invent, infer, or hallucinate any details. State 'Not Found' for any information not explicitly discovered."
◦ Output Format: "Return results as concise bullet points, each with its direct source URL."
Step 2: Complementary Search & Contextual Understanding
◦ "Act as a most senior market researcher. Given the business '[Business Name/Handle]' and postcode '[Postcode]', perform a real-time Google search to complement the findings from previous research. Focus on uncovering additional public phone numbers, email addresses, and contact names that might have been missed. Also, identify any recent news, press releases, or social media activity (beyond TikTok) that might yield contact details or provide context on their e-commerce operations. Prioritize finding direct links to sources."
◦ "If previous research from step 1 found some information but lacked direct links, try to verify those details and provide explicit URLs using your real-time search capabilities."
◦ "Crucially, for any information found, provide a direct, specific URL link to its verifiable source. If information is not explicitly found, state 'Not Found'."
