Feedback Submission Writing Tips

Providing feedback may be new to you so please read these guidelines for best practices. 

  • Read the skill’s submission page. Not all pages will include detailed explanations, however, some skill builders may request specific feedback or issues they faced.
  • Be nice! Constructive criticism is welcome, but please be polite. We’re all in this together.
  • Learn the best practices of voice design: 
    • Be adaptable: Let customers speak in their own words and adapt to their situation.
    • Be personal: Individualize the experience, remember things that are unique to the customer.
    • Be available: Handle the variety of ways your customers may express an intent.
    • Be relatable: Converse with your customers, but do so concisely and help them understand exactly what they need.
  • Imagine yourself as a user. Would you use this skill again? Why or why not? What about the experience could be improved? How can the maker reach a bigger audience? What would make the skill more engaging? What would bring customers back for more?
