The reports keep coming in, but the hard question stays the same: what’s working, what gets changed next, and what results are supposed to show up outside a dashboard. This Digital Marketing Plan [/product/projects] keeps the work in one place, so the plan doesn’t turn into a month of busy activity with nothing you can point to, or a setup nobody can take ownership of later. The board uses teal and rose accents with Space Grotesk headings and Roboto body text, so the steps read like decisions instead of hype.
The columns move in the order the work actually happens, starting with access, goals, and reporting terms, then getting tracking and measurement into shape before any budget goes live. Strategy and planning covers keyword research, landing page mapping, and a channel mix recommendation, then campaign setup builds the accounts, pages, and creatives. Launch and optimisation holds the early adjustments and A/B tests, and reporting and ongoing improvements closes the loop with a monthly performance report, next steps, and account handover so ownership doesn’t get left behind.
- Onboarding Collect the logins and account access, run a goals and conversions workshop, and lock down reporting and billing terms before any build work starts.
- Tracking and measurement Audit GA4 and Tag Manager, fix event tracking, and configure conversions and audiences so performance has something real to measure.
- Strategy and planning Capture keyword research and prioritisation, map keywords to landing pages and content, and note the budget and channel mix recommendation.
- Campaign setup Track the build of Google Ads campaigns, WordPress landing pages, and Meta Ads creatives so launch doesn’t depend on memory.
- Reporting and ongoing improvements Keep the monthly report, next month’s optimisation and budget changes, and the final account access handover in the same thread.
Once the board is in Plutio, you add your own dates and assign the tasks to whoever’s doing the work, then run delivery off the cards as they move across the columns. The board carries the order of work rather than a calendar, which means the same plan still fits when timelines change, priorities shift, or the next month’s optimisations need to jump the queue.
We went from spending hours on every proposal to creating fully customized ones in under 5 minutes. That's not an exaggeration - we timed it.
What is on this board
6 columns carrying 18 cards. Adding it builds the whole thing as a project in your workspace, with every column and card in place.
| Column | What is in it |
|---|---|
Onboarding | The Onboarding column holds the cards for access collection, the goals and conversions workshop, and documenting reporting and billing terms. Assign each card to the person who needs to chase or confirm it, then move it along once it’s done.
|
Tracking and measurement | Tracking and measurement covers the GA4 and Tag Manager audit, event tracking fixes, and conversion and audience configuration. The cards make the measurement work explicit before any campaign results get judged.
|
Strategy and planning | Strategy and planning runs through keyword research and prioritisation, mapping keywords to landing pages and content, and writing down the recommended budget and channel mix. Update the cards with the choices you’re actually backing, since those decisions drive setup.
|
Campaign setup | Campaign setup carries cards for building Google Ads, creating WordPress landing pages, and producing Meta Ads campaigns and creatives. The column gives each build step a place, so launch doesn’t start with half-finished pieces.
|
Launch and optimisation | Launch and optimisation tracks the launch itself, conversion tracking checks, early bid adjustments, and A/B tests on creatives and pages. Move the cards as results come in and changes get made, so the first month doesn’t disappear into ad platform history.
|
Reporting and ongoing improvements | Reporting and ongoing improvements holds the monthly performance report, the next month’s optimisation and budget recommendations, and the account access and documentation handover. The column keeps reporting tied to decisions, and it records what the client owns when the work ends.

What happens when you install it
- A project is created with its board, 6 columns and 18 cards already there.
- Nothing carries a due date, because a board holds the order the work runs in rather than a calendar. The dates go on once you know when the job starts.
- Every card opens as a task with its own description, assignee, dates, subtasks and files, and columns are renamed, reordered or deleted like any other.
Who it is for
Marketing consultants, digital agencies, and in-house marketing leads who need a shared plan for tracking fixes, campaign build, launch work, and monthly improvements.

Questions about this project template
What should a digital marketing plan include?
A digital marketing plan usually covers the order of work from onboarding through tracking and measurement, strategy, campaign setup, launch optimisation, and ongoing reporting. This board captures those stages as columns, with specific tasks under each one.
What do you do first in a digital marketing plan?
The first work usually locks down access, goals, and how reporting will work, because those decisions affect everything that follows. The board starts with onboarding tasks, then moves straight into tracking and measurement so campaigns launch with conversions in place.
How do you show marketing is working without just sending charts?
Reporting works best when it connects results to the changes that caused them and the next actions you’re taking. The board includes monthly reporting and next month’s optimisations, so reporting sits beside decisions, not separate from them.
Who should own the ad accounts and tracking setup?
Ownership needs to be clear, especially at handover, so access and documentation don’t disappear when the engagement ends. The board includes onboarding access collection up front and an account access and documentation handover in the final column.
How much ad spend do you need for marketing to work?
Ad spend depends on the channels, the goal, and the conversion rates you can measure, so the plan needs a place to record the recommended budget and mix. The strategy and planning column includes a budget and channel mix recommendation card to capture that decision.
What’s the difference between a digital marketing plan and a growth strategy?
A growth strategy usually describes the outcomes to chase and the levers to pull, while a digital marketing plan turns that into ordered delivery work. This template focuses on the delivery path from measurement through campaign build and ongoing improvements.
