Step 2: Choose Your Agent

You can use any AI agent in FabriXWork to analyze data and generate recommendations.

• If you already have an agent: Use the agent you're currently working with (they already know your context and content)
• If you need a new agent: For strategy analysis, Alex - Business Analyst is recommended for data analysis and pattern recognition expertise
• If you haven't added any agent yet: Follow the Add Your First Agent guide first

Step 3: Connect Your Folder

If you are adding a new agent:

Follow Connect to Local Folder to connect your agent to a local folder.

If you want to connect a different folder:

1. Select your agent from the sidebar
2. In the right panel, click "Change" to connect a folder
3. Add your files into that folder

Step 4: Give Your Instruction

To generate your strategy recommendations, use one of the instruction examples in the next section as your starting point. Choose the example that best matches your strategy type, then replace the sample file names and details with your own.

Review & Refine

What to Check

After your agent generates the output, review for:

• Accuracy — Verify data analysis and insights match your source documents
• Completeness — Ensure all key segments and patterns are covered
• Actionability — Check that recommendations are specific and implementable
• Data backing — Confirm recommendations are supported by actual data points

How to Request Corrections

If you find issues, continue the conversation with your agent:

For data errors:

"The analysis shows [incorrect insight], but the data from [source document] indicates [correct insight]. Please review and correct."

For missing analysis:

"The strategy doesn't cover [specific segment/pattern]. Please analyze [specific data] and add recommendations."

For generic recommendations:

"The recommendations are too generic. Make them specific to our context by referencing [specific data points/customer names]."

For refinements:

"The tone is too [academic/casual]. Please adjust to be more [action-oriented/executive-friendly]."

Best Practices

✅ Do: Review data accuracy, verify recommendations are actionable, check that insights are data-backed

❌ Don't: Accept generic advice without data backing, skip validation of key findings, implement without leadership review

How to Improve Results

Tip 1: Provide Clean, Structured Data

✅ Good: Excel file with clear column headers, consistent formatting, no merged cells

❌ Vague: Scattered data across multiple formats with inconsistent naming

Tip 2: Be Specific About Your Goal

✅ Good: "Increase recurring donations by 30% while maintaining 80% retention rate"

❌ Vague: "Improve our donor strategy"

Tip 3: Include Qualitative Context

✅ Good: Meeting notes, feedback summaries, conversation highlights that explain the 'why' behind numbers

❌ Vague: Only quantitative data without context

Tip 4: Request Prioritized Recommendations

✅ Good: "Rank recommendations by impact and effort. Focus on top 5 actions we can take in Q2"

❌ Vague: "Give us some recommendations"

Tip 5: Ask for Specific Action Plans

✅ Good: "For each recommendation, include: specific steps, timeline, responsible person, success metric"

❌ Vague: "Tell us what to do"

Tip 6: Request Data Visualizations Suggestions

✅ Good: "For each data section, suggest appropriate chart type (bar chart, line graph, pie chart) to visualize the insight"

❌ Vague: "Include some charts"

Tip 7: Iterate on Analysis Depth

After reviewing the first output:

✅ Good: "This is great! Now dive deeper into the corporate donor segment. What differentiates the top 5 corporate donors from the rest? Can we replicate those characteristics?"

❌ Vague: "Make it better"
