Table Structures, Columns, and Data Types
Marketing Channels Budget Sheet:
| Column Name | Data Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Channel Name | Text | Name of channel (e.g., Google Ads, Instagram, Email) |
| Budget Allocated ($) | Currency | Initial planned spend for the quarter/year |
| Actual Spend ($) | Currency | Real-time expenditure updated weekly/monthly |
| % of Total Budget | Percentage | |
| Status | Text (Dropdown) | On Track, Over Budget, Under Budget, Paused |
| Expected Conversions | Number | Predicted leads/sales from this channel |
| Average CPA ($) | Currency | =Actual Spend / Expected Conversions (if >0) |
The Campaign Planning Tracker includes columns for: Campaign Name, Start/End Date, Objective (Brand Awareness, Lead Gen, Sales), Target Audience, Channels Used (multi-select dropdown), Responsible Team Member, and Performance Notes.
Monthly Cash Flow Forecast uses a timeline format with monthly rows from Jan-Dec. Columns include: Revenue Projections (from marketing-driven sales), Marketing Spend by Month, Net Cash Flow (=Revenue - Spend), and Cumulative Balance.
Formulas Required
- =SUMIF() to aggregate spend by channel across multiple campaigns in the reconciliation sheet.
- =IF(Actual > Budget, “Over”, IF(Actual < Budget * 0.8, “Under”, “On Track”)) for automated status logic.
- =ROUND(Budget * 1.05, 2) to auto-calculate contingency reserve (5% of total budget).
- =VLOOKUP() to pull campaign objectives from the Campaign Tracker into the Executive Summary.
- Dynamic Named Ranges for charts that automatically expand as new rows are added.
Conditional Formatting Rules
- Red fill for Actual Spend exceeding Budget by 10% or more in Marketing Channels Budget.
- Yellow fill if spend is between 90%-100% of budget.
- Green fill when spending is under 85% of allocation and conversions are above target.
- Color-coded arrows in ROI Dashboard to indicate month-over-month improvement (+/-) in CPA or CAC.
