Three new substantive frameworks integrated from Founding Marketing (Corey Haines book) into the marketing-plan skill. Bumps marketing-plan from 1.0.0 to 1.1.0. New reference files: - references/budget-planning.md (168 lines) — two scientific methods for setting the marketing budget: Method 1 Revenue-Based (5-40% of ARR with conservative/standard/aggressive postures) and Method 2 Goal-Based (formula: [(New ARR / (ARPC * 12)) * CAC] / annual retention rate). Includes the 3-3-2-2-2 VC growth path (3x in years 1-2, 2x in years 3-7 from $1M ARR), the 10-20% experimental buffer rule, blended CAC calculation (must include salaries, content, tools, retainers - not just paid spend), and the forecasting reality check (no startup under $100M ARR reliably hits monthly forecasts). - references/growth-patterns.md (148 lines) — the real shape of SaaS growth. Phase identification ($0-10K, $10K-100K, $100K-1M, $1M+) with binding constraints per phase. Linear vs step-function vs layered S-curve growth patterns. Channel x Product x Market S-curve layering principle (start the next curve before the current one plateaus). Includes the "long slow SaaS ramp of death" framing and the case against the exponential-growth myth. - references/team-and-agency-model.md (278 lines) — strategy in-house, execution outsourced principle. Three core marketing functions (Growth = demand engine, Product = story engine, Content = trust engine). pi-shaped marketer framework (vs T-shaped) with high-leverage skill-set combinations. Title progression (Manager -> Lead -> Director -> VP -> Chief) — don't inflate the first hire. Agency selection framework (Individual contractors / Small niche / Small generalist). Three-stage scaling model (Early / Growth / Scale) with internal-vs-external ratio guidance. Enhanced existing files to wire in the new frameworks: - SKILL.md (244 -> 270 lines) — new sections "Setting the budget scientifically," "Growth patterns," "Team and agency model" with pointers to the new reference docs. Expanded "What every plan must customize" from 7 items to 9 (added unit economics + phase of growth). Description still 949 chars (under 1024). - references/funding-stage-unlocks.md — Related docs pointer block. - references/measurement-framework.md — Related docs pointer block, new "Anchoring against the VC growth path" section, new "Forecasting reality check" section. - references/methodology.md — Intake 5 (Team) now probes for pi-shaped vs T-shaped vs tactical-only marketing owner. Intake 6 (Budget) now probes for blended CAC, ARPC, retention rate. - references/plan-template.md — Section 3 adds Phase of SaaS Growth. Section 8 adds required unit economics table. Section 10 adds budget-method framing block at top + per-quarter S-curve position field. Section 11 adds RACI table mapping the three core functions to internal-owner and external-executor. Total new content: ~600 lines across three new reference docs plus ~120 lines of integration edits. SKILL.md remains well under the 500-line convention (270).
