Tips for Getting Great Answers
Be Specific: Instead of "show me sales," try "show me monthly sales by product category for the last 6 months"
Use Time Periods: Include phrases like "last month," "this quarter," "year over year" to get relevant timeframes
Ask Follow-ups: Start broad, then drill down. After "top products," ask "show me top products by region"
Include Context: Mention specific metrics like "revenue," "units," "percentage," or "average" to get exactly what you need
Compare Segments: Ask for breakdowns by region, customer type, product category, or time period to find patterns
