Why it matters in B2B GTM
30/60/90 forces founders to make sequential bets instead of trying everything at once. Day-one teams that fire up six channels in parallel learn nothing from any of them; teams that ship one channel deeply for 30 days learn whether the wedge works.
A useful 30/60/90 names the goal of each window, the artifacts shipped, the KPIs that decide success, and the explicit kill criteria. Without kill criteria, every channel keeps going forever because no one wants to be the person who killed it.
The biggest mistake is treating 30/60/90 as a calendar instead of a learning plan. Days are cheap; learning cycles are the unit that matters. If you've finished the month-one experiments in two weeks, advance the plan.
How ICPGTM uses it
Every ICPGTM GTM plan is structured as 30/60/90 with explicit goals, artifacts, KPIs, and kill criteria per window — so the plan you ship to your team reads like an execution plan, not a strategy deck.
