What is included in the product
Written Marketing Plan Template in Excel Gantt Chart
You get an editable Excel Gantt chart, 30+ pre-built marketing actions, built-in formulas for dependencies and progress, plus printable export views.
Professionally Pre-Written & Fully Customizable Plan
This pre-written plan includes campaign copy, channel steps, and timing that you can edit in Excel. Everything is adjustable so you can change offers, voice, and dates to fit your property. It saves time and reduces guesswork when launching promotions.
Gantt Chart Format for Visual Planning
The plan uses a visual Gantt chart to show tasks across weeks and months for clear sequencing. Start dates, overlaps, and dependencies are visible at a glance. That makes scheduling promotions, staffing, and events simple to manage.
30+ Pre-Built Marketing Actions
Includes 30+ ready marketing actions such as email sequences, local partnership outreach, social content, and event tasks. Each action is channel-tagged and ordered for efficient launches. Use them as-is or edit to match your brand and offers.
Editable Timelines and Task Durations
All start dates and task durations are fully editable so the plan matches your real calendar. Change a start date and dependent tasks shift automatically via built-in formulas. That keeps timelines coherent when you move promotions or staff shifts.
Built-In Progress Tracking
Built-in progress tracking shows percent complete per task and flags overdue items automatically. Progress rolls up to weekly and campaign summaries so you spot blockers fast. Use the tracking view for standups and status reports.
Simplifies Team Coordination
Assign owners, set dependencies, and add notes to reduce confusion across front desk, kitchen, and marketing. The Gantt view clarifies who does what and when, cutting overlaps and missed handoffs. It keeps small teams aligned during busy weekends.
Zero Excel Expertise Required
No advanced Excel skills required; color-coded cells, simple dropdowns, and protected formulas keep the file safe and easy. Instruction rows and tooltips guide first-time users through setup. You'll be running campaigns without needing a spreadsheet expert.
Printable and Shareable

Weekly Highlight & Completion Guide
