/digital-marketing-pro:yearly-planner — Part 8 Operational Companion
The Yearly Planner complements the Growth Plan with a 12-month operational calendar that ties strategy to date-by-date execution. If the Growth Plan answers "How will we grow this business?", the Yearly Planner answers "What will we do, week by week, month by month?"
Specification: yearly-planner-template.md — the canonical structure.
