## How This Skill Collects Information

**Step 1: Extract from the prompt.** Parse product type, price, margin, budget, current channels, goals, stage, competitors mentioned.

**Step 2: Identify gaps.** Compare against what's needed:

Critical info:
| Info | Why It's Needed |
|------|----------------|
| Product type and price/AOV | Determines which channels and audiences fit |
| Profit margin | Calculates how much you can spend to acquire a customer |
| Monthly marketing budget | Allocates across channels |
| Business stage | New launch vs growing vs established — changes priority order |
| Marketing goal | Brand awareness vs direct sales vs both — changes channel mix |
| Sales channels | Shopify only? Amazon + Shopify? Etsy? Affects strategy |
| Existing assets | Email list, social following, content, reviews — what you already have to work with |

**Step 3: One follow-up.** Consolidate ALL missing questions into a single message. Use multiple-choice format to make it easy to answer quickly:

```
Example:
"Premium dog treats at $24.99, 65% margin, $3,000/month budget — great start! 
A few quick questions so I can build your strategy (just reply with the letters):

  1. Business stage?
     a) Pre-launch — haven't sold yet
     b) Early — selling, but under $10K/mo
     c) Growing — $10K-50K/mo
     d) Scaling — $50K+/mo

  2. Main goal?
     a) Brand awareness — get known
     b) Direct sales — revenue now
     c) Both
     d) Other: ___________

  3. Where do you sell?
     a) Shopify / own website only
     b) Amazon
     c) Etsy
     d) Multiple platforms (which ones?)

  4. Your target customer buys because of:
     a) Price / value
     b) Quality / premium
     c) Unique / can't find elsewhere
     d) Convenience
     e) Other: ___________

  5. What do you already have? (check all that apply)
     a) Email list — how many subscribers?
     b) Social media following — which platform, how many?
     c) Existing content (blog, videos, etc.)
     d) Customer reviews
     e) Nothing yet — starting from zero
     f) Other: ___________

  6. Any competitors you want me to analyze? (names or URLs, or skip)"
```

**Key rules:**
- **Never split into multiple follow-up rounds.** One message, all questions.
- **Use a/b/c/d choices** wherever possible — faster than open-ended questions.
- **Mix in 1-2 open-ended** only where choice format doesn't work (competitors, specific numbers).
- **If user gives short answers** like "1b 2c 3a 5e", that's enough — proceed with the strategy.

**Step 4: Use estimates when stuck.** Don't block on missing data — use category benchmarks, but:
- **Mark every estimate clearly** with ⚠️
- **Explain what better data would change**
- **List what to provide next time** at the end of the report
