=SUMIFS(Actual Spend, Channel, "Social Media")– Aggregates spend per channel.=AVERAGEIF(Campaign Name, "*Q1*", ROI %)– Calculates average ROI by quarter.=IF(ROI % > 200%, "Excellent", IF(ROI % > 100%, "Good", IF(ROI % > 50%, "Needs Review", "Underperforming")))– Auto-classifies campaign performance.
Conditional Formatting Rules
Visual cues enhance quick interpretation:
- Profit ($): Green if > $10,000; Yellow if $1,000–$9,999; Red if negative.
- ROI (%): Blue gradient (lowest to highest); cells over 300% show gold background.
