- Conversion Rate in Campaign Tracker: =IFERROR([Lead Count]/[Total Clicks], 0) — ensures no division errors.
- In Dashboard Summary: =COUNTIFS(ClientMasterList!$L:$L,"Active") to show active clients dynamically.
- ROI Formula per Client in Performance Metrics: =([Revenue Generated] – [Actual Spend]) / [Actual Spend]
Conditional Formatting
- Client Tier: Platinum = Green fill, Gold = Blue, Silver = Yellow, Bronze = Orange.
- Status: Churned clients highlighted in red; Prospective in light gray.
- Budget Variance: If Actual Spend > 90% of Budget → yellow warning; >100% → red alert.
- Conversion Rate: Above 8% = green, below 3% = red — identifies underperforming campaigns.
User Instructions
How to Use This Template:
- Begin by populating the Client Master List with all current and prospective clients. Ensure every client has a unique ID.
- Link each campaign in the Campaign Tracker to its respective Client ID — this enables automatic data pull from other sheets.
- In Budget & Spend Allocation, record invoices as payments occur. The system auto-updates actual spend figures across Campaign Tracker and Dashboard.
- Weekly: Update Lead Count, Conversion Rate, and Status in Campaign Tracker to keep metrics fresh.
- Check the Dashboard Summary weekly for KPIs: Total Clients by Tier, ROI by Channel, Budget Utilization Rate.
