Formulas Required

=IFERROR([@Spend]/[@Leads Generated], 0) – Calculates CPL without #DIV/0 errors.
=IF([@Clicks]>0, ([@Leads Generated]/[@Clicks])*100, 0) – Conversion rate formula.
=SUMIFS([Daily Spend], [Date], "<=" & [@Date], [Campaign ID], [@Campaign ID]) – Cumulative spend by campaign.
=[@[Budget Allocation]] - [@Cumulative Spend] – Remaining budget calculation.
=TODAY() – Auto-populates current date in Daily Activity Log (user may edit).

Conditional Formatting

CPL > $50: Red fill — flags inefficient lead acquisition.
Conversion Rate < 2%: Yellow fill — triggers review of landing page or ad copy.
Remaining Budget < 10% of Allocation: Orange border — alerts budget exhaustion risk.
Status = “Delayed”: Bold red text — highlights schedule slippage requiring intervention.
Daily Spend > 150% of Previous Day’s Average: Flashing animation (via VBA or manual conditional formatting) — signals potential anomaly.

Open the template daily at start of workday. Confirm Date is correct in “Daily Activity Log.”
Use dropdowns in Action Type and Channel to standardize data entry.
Enter Spend, Impressions, Clicks, and Leads Generated for each activity completed yesterday or today.
Update Status column as activities progress (Planned → Executed → Completed).
Review the “Channel Performance Dashboard” and “ROI Summary” sheets for instant feedback. Use filters to view specific campaigns.
