2. Approval Workflow – decision matrix for marketing, partner, and finance stakeholders.
3. Execution Cadence – sprint plan, shared tracking sheets, and content governance.
4. Measurement & Attribution – agreed metrics (MQLs, pipeline, revenue, influence) + reporting cadence.
5. Closeout & Learnings – retro template, MDF reconciliation, and next-play recommendations.

Templates
