Best for

Agencies who want a reusable, practical starting point for this workflow.
Operators who want a reusable, practical starting point for this workflow.
Anyone who wants a clear system they can adapt quickly rather than another blank document.

What this helps avoid

Planning from guesses when a simple model would show the tradeoff.
Hidden overload, weak margins, or unclear priority costs.
Over-designed systems that look polished but are hard to use in real work.

Add one realistic project, client, campaign, or operating scenario so the model has useful data.
