How much of your Amazon ads week is a task you already did last week?
For me it's a lot. Weekly reports. Search term pulls. Checking each account against its plan.
Each one used to start from a blank chat, and I'd explain the same things again every time.
Now, when I get an output I like, I do one more step before I close the chat:
"Go through everything we just did to get this. Drop the parts I said I didn't like. Write it up as a framework and save it as a skill."
Next week it's one slash command. I tell it the profile and anything new, and it runs the same workflow the same way. My weekly reporting runs from skills like this.
What that gets you:
→ The same output every week, not a new interpretation every week
→ Your corrections kept, so you stop fixing the same mistake
→ A process someone else on the team can run
How to start:
→ Pick one task you know you'll do again next week
→ Do it once in Claude, properly, with your edits
→ Ask it to save the whole process as a skill
→ Next week, run it and correct it once more
Pro tip: Use cron jobs to run skill workflows on a schedule.
Easy to create, and works every time.
