So, you can think about the changes that need to be done in order to improve the effectiveness of your marketing plan. To succeed in the competitive market, you must always be open to trying out something new. Instead of creating a 1-year marketing plan, you should try in a 90-day marketing plan.
Advantages of a 90-day marketing plan

Data that you will gather over 90 days can be utilized to make a baseline for more effective tracking of your bigger plan.
A 90-day marketing plan allows a more agile response.
In case something doesn’t work, you can address it and quickly change it without having to worry about how it will impact your annual plan.

Don’t worry about your master plan becoming irrelevant since your 90-Day marketing goals will continue to drive your master plan forward with a bigger vision of the finish line.
If you have a new business then you can break apart your marketing plan into 30 days segment to make an action plan. learn (1 to 30 days), construct (31 to 60 days) and prioritise (61 to 90 days).
