Marketing Plan

Turn scattered marketing ideas into a focused weekly plan with owners, priorities, metrics, and clear kill criteria.

Inventory The Work

Collect:

• Business target.
• Current channels and active campaigns.
• Budget, team capacity, and time horizon.
• Funnel bottleneck.
• Known customer segments.
• Measurement confidence.
• Ideas backlog.
• Fixed dates: launches, seasonal moments, renewals, events.

If the team lacks a target or measurement, make that the first operating task.

Sort The Backlog

Classify each idea:

• Revenue now.
• Learning.
• Audience building.
• Infrastructure.
• Retention.
• Brand credibility.
• Maintenance.

Score by impact, confidence, effort, time-to-feedback, and strategic fit. Keep a separate parking lot for ideas that sound good but do not match the current constraint.

Set The Weekly Rhythm

Define:

• Weekly focus.
• Work-in-progress limit.
• Channel owner.
• Campaign owner.
• Decision meeting agenda.
• Reporting metric.
• Learning log.
• Kill, continue, or pause criteria.
• Parking-lot review rule.
• Next review date.

Protect focus. A small team should not run every channel at once.
