# Next steps

> Turn one verified result into deeper analysis, creative work, a controlled campaign plan, or a repeatable workflow.

After your first verified result, expand one product flow at a time. Carry the accepted evidence forward, name the output you need, and keep the action boundary explicit.

## Continue from the result

<Frame caption="A completed result can lead to a focused follow-up, a product artifact, or a separately reviewed proposal.">

</Frame>

Use this sequence:

<Steps>
  <Step title="State what you accepted">
    Summarize the verified finding, source, account scope, dates, and important limitation. Keep the original result linked or continue in the same conversation when the next request depends on it.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Choose one output">
    Ask for a deeper analysis, brief, creative direction, campaign plan, report, alert, or workflow. Do not combine several deliverables into an approval request you cannot review clearly.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Set the authority boundary">
    Say whether you want analysis, a draft, an approval-ready proposal, or execution under existing policy. A request cannot expand your role or bypass workspace controls.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Follow the task or proposal">
    Review visible steps and answer required input. If Marketer presents a proposal, inspect every step before you dismiss, edit, or approve it.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Verify the owning surface">
    Open **Analytics**, **Briefs**, **Creatives**, **Campaigns**, **Workflow**, or another owning surface and confirm that the expected result or artifact exists in the correct workspace.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Choose a product flow

<CardGroup cols={2}>
  <Card title="Analyze performance" icon="chart-line" href="/product-guides/analytics">
    Move from an account-level change to the channel, campaign, creative, product, or landing-page evidence behind it.

  <Card title="Create a brief" icon="file-lines" href="/product-guides/creatives">
    Turn a grounded finding into a reviewed brief, then continue through Studio or Assets when appropriate.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Prepare a campaign" icon="bullhorn" href="/product-guides/campaigns">
    Define objective, source evidence, budget boundary, targeting, creative, destination, and approval state.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Build a workflow" icon="diagram-project" href="/product-guides/workflows">
    Make a report, alert, or other recurring process repeatable with explicit inputs, timing, and destination.

### Analysis path

Start with the verified result, then narrow one dimension at a time. Keep the same source and time window until you intentionally change them. Stop when the evidence no longer supports a more specific conclusion.

**Success:** the deeper result still identifies source, scope, dates, filters, and calculation, and it explains any change from the original measurement frame.

### Creative path

Ask for a brief before asking for final creative when the message, audience, offer, or evidence still needs agreement. Confirm that product claims and brand facts come from approved workspace context.

**Success:** the brief or creative exists in its owning surface and clearly shows what still needs human review.

### Campaign path

Keep the first campaign output as a draft or approval-ready proposal. Confirm provider account, campaign objective, budget, targeting, creative, destination, tracking, guardrails, and post-launch measurement before any publish action.

**Success:** the displayed proposal matches the reviewed scope, and any approved change is verified in **Campaigns** and the provider state.

### Workflow path

Turn a proven, stable procedure into recurring work. Define the trigger or schedule, data source, date window, output, destination, failure behavior, and decision point.

**Success:** a test run produces the expected output, and the workflow surface shows the intended configuration and status.

## Prepare the workspace for actions

Before you approve work that can publish, spend, or change a connected account:

1. Confirm member roles and who can approve or change workspace settings.
2. Set performance targets, spend caps, budget-change rules, and protected campaigns in **Guardrails**.
3. Review the workspace **Autonomy** level and default creative-brief behavior.
4. Keep the first campaign launch paused for review unless your documented policy requires another state.
5. Check **Awaiting action** for unresolved work and remove stale proposals.
6. Define where the resulting state will be verified after approval.

See [Approvals and autonomy](/essential-guidelines/approvals-and-autonomy) before enabling a path that can publish or spend.

## Make good work reusable

Reuse the right layer instead of copying an entire conversation:

| What should persist                                                 | Save it as           |
| ------------------------------------------------------------------- | -------------------- |
| Stable company, product, audience, positioning, or operating fact   | **Knowledge**        |
| A repeatable set of instructions with clear inputs and review rules | **Skill**            |
| Scheduled or event-driven work with a destination                   | **Workflow**         |
| A request-specific hypothesis, window, or constraint                | Keep it in that task |

Review suggested Knowledge and Skills before making them part of future workspace context. A useful one-off assumption should not become a durable company fact by accident.

## Track activation without rushing authority

Your workspace may show these activation milestones:

1. **Connect your ads account**
2. **Connect MCP**
3. **Chat with agent**
4. **Generate brief**
5. **Launch ad**

These are product milestones, not instructions to give every workspace the same autonomy. Complete **Generate brief** and **Launch ad** only when your team is ready to review creative and spend-related work.
