Task prompt
What the agent was asked to do
Using the June State of Fashion report, identify the top benefit consumers look for when shopping for beauty in Japan and South Korea. Print out the percentage of customers from each of Japan and South Korea who rated this their top benefit, rounded to the nearest percentile. State the brand value that had the highest percentage of "Very Important" responses from the survey, and determine whether this brand value is the same as, or different from, the top benefit sought after in Japan and South Korea identified above. Treat variations in terminology as the same factor if they describe the same functional benefit or product standard. Respond with a message for me in here.
