Formulas Required

In Campaign Tracker, ROI (%) = (Converted Leads * Avg. Sale Value - Budget) / Budget * 100. Use a reference cell in “Settings” for Avg. Sale Value.
In Contact Log, use VLOOKUP or XLOOKUP to auto-populate Campaign Name from Campaign Tracker using Campaign ID.
In Leads Dashboard, use COUNTIFS to calculate total leads per status, and SUMIFS for budget spent per channel.
Use TODAY() function in “Days Since Last Contact” column to highlight stale leads: =TODAY()-[Last Contacted].

Conditional Formatting Rules

Contact Status: “Closed Won” = Green fill, “Closed Lost” = Red fill.
Last Contacted: If "Days Since Last Contact" > 14 → Yellow highlight; > 30 → Red highlight.
ROI (%): Above 50% = Green, Below -10% = Red.
Budget Utilization: If actual spend exceeds budget by >15%, highlight cell in orange.

User Instructions

How to Use This Template:

Start by populating the “Settings” sheet with your campaign types and marketing channels.
Add new campaigns in the “Campaign Tracker” sheet. The template auto-generates Campaign IDs.
Enter new leads into “Contact Log.” Use dropdowns to assign source campaign and status.
Update “Last Contacted” and “Notes” each time you interact with a contact.
Once a lead becomes a customer, change their status to "Closed Won." The dashboard will automatically update conversion metrics.
Review the “Leads Dashboard” weekly to track KPIs: Total Leads, Conversion Rate, ROI per channel.
DO NOT delete or rearrange columns — doing so will break formulas and dropdowns.

Line Chart: Lead volume trend over the last 6 months to identify seasonal patterns.
