🛠How to Use & Customize These Templates
Here’s a quick checklist and steps to get the template working for your data and goals:
-
Choose the right template
Pick one (or combine parts) that matches your objectives and channels (e.g. if you don’t run “Email” campaigns, skip that sheet/page). -
Make a copy / duplicate
For Data Studio templates, use File → Make a copy.
For Excel / Sheets, download or duplicate the template file. -
Connect your data sources
-
In Data Studio: connect GA4, Google Ads, Search Console, Facebook, etc.
-
In Excel / Sheets: either manually import data or use connectors (e.g. Windsor.ai, Supermetrics) to auto‑populate data.
-
-
Map metrics & dimensions to your setup
Ensure the template’s metrics (e.g. “Sessions”, “Conversions”, “Cost per Lead”) align with your definitions.
If you have custom events or goals, adapt charts / formulas accordingly. -
Customize visual layout & branding
-
Change colors, logo, font to your brand.
-
Remove or hide pages / charts you don’t need.
-
Add filters / date controls.
-
-
Add commentary / insights
Don’t just present data — include short narratives:-
“X channel’s cost per lead rose because…”
-
“We should scale Campaign B because ROI is > threshold.”
-
Comparison (Month-over-Month, Year-over-Year).
-
-
Schedule / share
-
In Data Studio: schedule email delivery or share view access.
-
In Sheets / Excel: export as PDF, or share links.
-
If you like, I can send you a template file (Google Sheets + a Data Studio template) that’s already set up for common KPIs — you can plug in your data. Do you want me to share that with you?
