This allows time for performance review and recalibration of strategies. Yearly Planning: Long-term strategic planning often revolves around yearly sales volume targets. Yearly goals can be broken down into smaller period types (months, quarters) for better tracking and adjustments.

Use historical data for accurate forecasting: By examining sales performance across different periods,
