What is included in the product
Written Marketing Plan Template in Excel Gantt Chart
The Excel package includes an editable Gantt chart, 30+ pre-built marketing actions, customizable timelines, built-in progress formulas, and printable summary pages.
Professionally Pre-Written & Fully Customizable Plan
Comes with pre-written campaign copy, timelines, and suggested channels tailored for whiskey and cigar lounges. You can edit copy, reorder tasks, and retarget audiences without rebuilding the plan.
Gantt Chart Format for Visual Planning
Visual Gantt layout maps every campaign task across weeks and months so you see sequencing and overlaps at a glance. Bars, milestones, and dependencies make launch dates and tasting nights obvious.
30+ Pre-Built Marketing Actions
Includes 30+ action items across paid, owned, and earned channels - email blasts, partner outreach, tasting events, PR pitches, and loyalty offers. Each action has suggested timelines and owners to avoid missed steps.
Editable Timelines and Task Durations
Change start dates and durations with built-in formulas; the Gantt recalculates so the plan stays consistent. That flexibility fits soft openings, seasonality, and staffing constraints.
Built-In Progress Tracking
Progress columns show percent complete and auto-flag overdue tasks, so you spot delays fast. Summary bars give weekly completion and highlight bottlenecks for quicker fixes.
Simplifies Team Coordination
Assign tasks to team members, add notes, and lock critical items to prevent accidental edits. The sheet reduces email threads and keeps vendors, servers, and managers on the same page.
Zero Excel Expertise Required
No advanced Excel skills needed - color-coded inputs and inline help guide every edit. Drop-in starter data and protected formulas make it safe for non-analysts and busy operators.
Printable and Shareable
Export to PDF or copy to Google Sheets for client decks, investor reviews, or staff handouts. Printable Gantt snapshots and one-page campaign summaries make meetings and handoffs smoother.
Weekly Highlight & Completion Guide
A weekly highlight row surfaces current priorities and shows what must finish this week. The completion guide lists next steps for each overdue or critical task to keep launches on track.
