Marketing Campaign ROI Projection and Budget Workbook

Marketing Campaigns
This workbook supports the Marketing Campaigns subject at www.marketingmo.com.
This workbook is designed for use with specific exercises in the MarketingMO planning and management SaaS. If a worksheet has gray and white cells, the white cells inside the
gray area are inputs and the results will be displayed in a printable format in the white area of the sheet. If a worksheet is all white, then the inputs and printable report are the
same. Some of the worksheets are linked to previous worksheets. Feel free to enter numbers into previous worksheet cell references if you haven't completed the previous sheets.
Calculations and formulas aren't protected, so check blank cells on the report sheets before entering values.
Some of the worksheets have tables with summary calculations at the end of the table. If you need to insert more rows, insert them in the middle of the data entry fields so the sum
formulas capture the new fields. Some of the worksheets have hidden rows or columns for formula calculations and deleting them will modify some of the features. If you modify
worksheets and wish to return to the original format, simply download a fresh copy from your account at www.marketingmo.com.
