This Excel Gantt-chart marketing plan template helps photography studios and freelance photographers plan and run marketing campaigns faster. It bundles pre-written tasks, timelines, and visual scheduling so you can promote memberships, sessions, and seasonal offers without guesswork.

What is included in the product
The Excel version includes an editable Gantt chart, 30+ pre-built marketing actions, built-in formulas for timeline logic and progress, plus a sample industry example and print/export views.
Professionally Pre-Written & Fully Customizable Plan
This pre-written plan saves time with ready-made campaign sections and copy you can edit. It's fully customizable in Excel so you can tweak channels, messaging, and pacing for studio services, and it simplifies campaign planing and execution.
Gantt Chart Format for Visual Planning
The template uses a horizontal Gantt chart to show tasks over time for clear sequencing. Color-coded bars and dependencies make it easy to spot overlaps, bottlenecks, and launch dates so you can coordinate shoots, promos, and membership drives.
30+ Pre-Built Marketing Actions
The file includes 30+ pre-built marketing actions covering social, email, local outreach, promotions, and partnerships tailored for photography studios. These ready tasks remove guesswork and ensure you cover acquisition, retention, and upsell activities for members and one-off clients.
Editable Timelines and Task Durations
Timelines and task durations are fully editable so you can shift launches or extend prep time without breaking the plan. Change start dates or durations and the Gantt recalculates to keep dependencies and deadlines consistent for real shoots and edits.
Built-In Progress Tracking
Built-in progress tracking (shows percent complete) lets you monitor execution at a glance. The template highlights overdue or blocked tasks, so you can reassign work or shift priorities to keep campaigns on schedule.
Simplifies Team Coordination
This plan simplifies team coordination by letting you assign task owners, set dependencies, and attach notes or links. That clarity reduces duplicated work and keeps photographers, editors, and marketing owners aligned on launch dates and deliverables.
Zero Excel Expertise Required
The template requires no Excel expertise: color-coded cells, dropdowns, and protected formulas guide users and prevent accidental changes. It's beginner-friendly but powerful enough for detailed studio campaigns.
Printable and Shareable
The plan is printable and shareable, with PDF export and Google Sheets compatibility for client presentations and team review. Use the print-friendly layouts for pitch meetings or handoff packets.
Weekly Highlight & Completion Guide
A weekly highlight and completion guide shows the current week, tracks completed tasks, and lists upcoming priorities. It's designed for quick standups and to signal what must finish to meet session and promo deadlines.
