Table Structures & Columns

Daily Marketing Log Table (Columns):

All dates are mandatory and auto-validated to prevent future entries or duplicates. Amount ($) is formatted as currency, and Paid By (Loan/Equity) uses data validation dropdowns.

Formulas Required

• In the Loan Amortization Schedule, daily loan payments are calculated using: =PMT(LoanAssumptions!B3/365, LoanAssumptions!B4*365, -LoanAssumptions!B2) for daily compounding loans. This adapts the standard PMT function to a daily schedule.
• In Daily Marketing Log, a running total of loan-funded spend is calculated using: =SUMIFS(E:E, G:G, "Loan", A:A, "<="&A2) in column H (Cumulative Loan Spend).
• ROI per campaign is derived from linking to a separate Revenue Tracker sheet or manual input: =IF(ISNUMBER(I2), I2 - E2, "No Revenue Data"), where Column I = Revenue Generated.
• Payback period in days: =ROUND(SUMIFS(E:E,G:G,"Loan") / AVERAGEIFS(I:I,E:E,">0",G:G,"Loan"), 0)

Conditional Formatting

• If daily marketing spend exceeds $500 using a loan, the cell turns red with a warning icon.
• Campaigns with negative ROI (spend > revenue) are highlighted in orange.
• Dates where no entry exists for 3+ consecutive days trigger an alert on the Dashboard via conditional formatting of a "Last Updated" cell.
