Marketing department — 2026-09-03

Runs every morning. Fixes what it can, publishes what is ready, and says what it could not do. It never spends money, never posts to anyone else's property, and never touches the payment path. · monitor · huddle

── THE ANALYST — rebuilds every number so none of them can go stale
     rebuilt 7 dashboards

── THE REPORTER — carries up what the others could not do, and writes it down
     ↑ NEEDS A PERSON — 409 sites carry the AdSense script; only approved sites serve ads. Approving them in the AdSense console is the biggest single revenue lever and only Paul can do it.
     ↑ NEEDS A PERSON — 220 real products are catalogued and the live Stripe checkout still sells only the hardcoded demos. Wiring them together needs a yes, because it means editing a service holding live keys.
