Localized reading guide
content-strategyPurpose, usage and source
Analyzes sales data from PayPal and QuickBooks to find top performers and slow movers, layers in seasonality, and produces a prioritized 30-day content brief: what to push, what offers to run, what to hold. Strategic output only — no calendars or assets. Use when the user asks what to post, wants a content plan, asks what's selling, or what to promote this month.

What this Skill does
Analyzes sales data from PayPal and QuickBooks to find top performers and slow movers, layers in seasonality, and produces a prioritized 30-day content brief: what to push, what offers to run, what to hold. Strategic output only — no calendars or assets. Use when the user asks what to post, wants a content plan, asks what's selling, or what to promote this month.
How the upstream workflow works
Quick start
When an SMB owner asks "what should I post this month?" or "what's my content plan?", this skill: Pulls sales data from QuickBooks or PayPal (transaction history, product/service revenue by date) Identifies patterns — top-selling products, slow movers, seasonal trends Layers in context — seasonality (user-provided or industry benchmarks), past performance
Upstream passage · L14 ↗Step 1: Pre-flight check (QuickBooks only)
If using QuickBooks, verify the business profile is set up: Call company-info to check if Industry is populated If missing or "Unknown": Ask: "I need your business category to pull the right seasonality benchmarks. What industry are you in?" (e.g., retail, services, SaaS)
Step 2: Clarify priorities & metrics
When triggered, ask the user: "How do you want me to measure 'top performers'?" By total revenue? By profit margin?
Upstream passage · L43 ↗Requirements and setup
No short requirements passage was selected from this file. This does not mean the Skill has no dependencies. Check the repository setup instructions and referenced files.
Limits and quality checks
No separate limits passage was selected from this file. This does not mean the Skill is safe for every input or environment. Review the complete source and validate your own result.
Start with a safe trial
- Check the supported host and the repository installation instructions. Keep the Skill directory and its referenced scripts, assets and documentation together; SKILL.md alone may omit dependencies.
- Give the agent your real input, desired output and acceptance criteria. Invocation syntax and available tools depend on the host; this site does not assume a universal install command.
- Try the source workflow in a disposable project or on a copy. Review operations that change files, remote services or billable resources before allowing them.
- Validate the output against the source quality checks and your own requirements. A successful trigger or a high repository Star count does not establish a correct result.
