What is included in the product
The Excel package includes an editable Gantt chart, 30+ pre-built marketing actions, owner fields, and built-in formulas for dates, dependencies, and progress tracking.
Professionally Pre-Written & Fully Customizable Plan
Pre-written sections cover launches, events, socials, and PR to save setup time. Every copy block and timeline is editable so you can tailor messaging and dates to your tasting room or distillery. It fits any beverage business and speeds proposal and campaign prep.
Gantt Chart Format for Visual Planning
The template places tasks on a Gantt timeline for week-by-week visibility. Bars show start, end, and dependencies so sequencing and overlaps are clear. Zoom between weeks and months to plan launches and tasting-room promotions.
30+ Pre-Built Marketing Actions
Includes 30+ pre-built marketing actions across email, socials, events, PR, and partnerships. Each task has a suggested duration, owner, and optional checklist so nothing gets missed. Use them as-is or edit to match your strategy.
Editable Timelines and Task Durations
All start dates and task durations are editable without breaking dependencies. Change a launch date and linked tasks shift automatically. That lets you adapt timelines for aging, bottling delays, or venue availability.
Built-In Progress Tracking
Progress tracking shows percent complete per task and a project-level progress bar. Overdue tasks flag in red and upcoming priorities highlight automatically. Project progress at a glance.
Simplifies Team Coordination
Assign tasks to team members and add accountability in seconds. Dependencies and owners reduce overlap and miscommunication. Use it to coordinate tasting-room staff, marketing, and operations.
Zero Excel Expertise Required
No Excel skills required: color-coded cells, on-sheet instructions, and locked formulas protect the plan's logic. All formulas run in the background so edits stay safe. Non-technical staff can update timelines confidently.
