Writing Effective Questions

Get better results by writing clear, specific questions.

Be specific: 'Show users created in January 2025' is better than 'Show recent users'.

Include context: Mention table names if you know them.

Use time ranges: 'Last 7 days', 'This month', 'Between Jan 1 and Jan 15'.

Ask for aggregations: 'Total sales', 'Average order value', 'Count of users'.

Request sorting: 'Top 10 by revenue', 'Oldest first', 'Highest to lowest'.

Combine conditions: 'Active users who signed up last month and made a purchase'.
