Best practices
Writing pages the assistant can quote
Plain, specific, one answer per question.
The assistant quotes your pages. Write them so a quote sounds right.
- One fact per sentence. "Returns are accepted within 30 days of delivery." Not a paragraph that winds around it.
- Numbers, not ranges, where you can. "Ships in 2 business days" beats "ships fast".
- Say what is not covered. "Sale items cannot be returned." The assistant will say it too, kindly.
- Do not contradict yourself. If the FAQ says 30 days and the policy page says 14, the assistant may pick either. Fix one.
- Name things the way customers do. If customers say "gift box", do not only call it "presentation packaging".
