I've always found it easier to be agile in marketing execution guided by strategy. If you want flexibility in a marketing strategy, I'd suggest being judicious with your budget and resources and doing as much test and learn as possible before you scale.

I recommend to focus on what you are you already know that works for your business. Make sure that the basics are well executed.

Then you can make small experiments on the side to gather new knowledge, then scale them when they prove to generate results.

If there’s an issue on being agile in the strategy/planning and this is keeping you from really actioning things, I’d recommend to check if there’s too many people involved. Usually more people involved means less agility.

Allow your team to experiment & make small bets. Let them try new & different marketing tactics as low cost, low risk pilots. If they work, double down. If they don't, it didn't cost you much and you learned something in the process!

For us, agility is linked very closely to scalability and the ability to pivot very quickly in terms of resources.

My team works on a two-quarter calendar. We plan and execute for the first two quarters of the year and then start looking at the third quarter. This allows us to shift things or make adjustments in a more agile way.
