Campaign Planning Worksheet: Connect the Offer, Creative, and Follow-Up
Use a free campaign planning worksheet to align your audience, offer, creative, landing page, follow-up, and measurement before production begins.
What you’ll take away.
- Connect one audience, offer, and customer action.
- Assign follow-up before publishing the campaign.
- Define the outcome and how it will be measured.
Two visual guides to the key ideas.
Use the diagrams below, then continue into the practical guide.
Connect the campaign before publishing
A connected campaign workflow. Assign responsibility and a verification method to each part.
Example: measure more than visits
Illustrative example only: 100 visits, 10 inquiries, 3 qualified inquiries, and 1 sale. These invented teaching numbers are not Lion Crown results, client results, forecasts, or benchmarks. Inquiry rate in this example is 10%.
Use this worksheet before commissioning campaign artwork or buying traffic. Copy the prompts into your planning document or print this page. No contact information is required to use it. The examples below are illustrative and do not predict performance.

1. Define one customer and one decision
Audience: Who is this campaign for?
Buying situation: What is happening when they need help?
Decision: What single action should they take?
Example: a DFW service-business owner evaluating whether an existing website needs focused repairs or a larger rebuild. The first action might be requesting a review, rather than committing to a full project.

What the customer receives: ______
What is excluded: ______
Price or quotation process: ______
Eligibility, timing, and capacity: ______
Check that the offer can be delivered as described. Use a deadline or capacity statement only when it is real. Explain whether the next step is an application, a paid consultation, a quotation request, or an immediate purchase.
3. Match the message and proof
Main promise: ______
Evidence supporting it: ______
Likely objection: ______
Answer supported by evidence: ______
Choose a relevant project example, demonstration, or explanation of the process. A technical audit score should not be used as a substitute for revenue evidence. Label demonstrations and sample outputs clearly.
4. Plan the landing page
Headline: ______
Service or product explanation: ______
Supporting proof: ______
Primary action: ______
What happens after submission: ______

5. Assign the follow-up
Person responsible: ______
Expected response window: ______
CRM destination and stage: ______
Approved communication channels: ______
How opt-outs are respected: ______

6. Decide what success means
Traffic source: ______
Landing-page action: ______
Qualified inquiry definition: ______
Booking, sale, or subscription event: ______
Review date and decision-maker: ______
For a subscription product, also define the first useful action, paid activation, and renewal. Use real baseline data when available; identify estimates as estimates.
7. Run the launch check
- The promise, price, and availability agree across channels.
- The destination is live and usable on a phone.
- The form delivers the right information to the responsible person.
