Peak season is coming: [WHAT WE SELL, LAST YEAR'S PEAK VOLUME VS NORMAL, CURRENT HEADCOUNT AND FULFILLMENT SETUP, LAST YEAR'S WORST FAILURE]. Build the readiness plan: where volume breaks us first (support tickets, fulfillment, shipping cutoffs, returns), the leading indicator to watch per failure point and the number that triggers action, what to pre-write now (macros, delay banners, apology emails), and the one hire or automation that buys the most headroom per dollar. Give me the week-by-week countdown to peak.

Inputs needed

  • Product, peak vs normal volume, headcount, setup, last year's worst failure

What good output looks like

Failure points ranked by where volume actually breaks first; every watch item has a number and a trigger; pre-written assets listed; countdown is week-by-week with owners
