The Three-Layer Framework
Three horizontal layers stacked vertically with minimal gaps between them. Layer 3 Front-Line Enablement on top, showing three GTM motions with the roles each enables and the outcomes produced. Layer 2 Integration and Activation in the middle, subdivided into three sub-bands bottom-up: Phase 1 Detect, Phase 2 Translate, and Activate. Layer 1 Data on the bottom, with Clay as the orchestration plane above source feeds.
