What this Marketing Budget Calculator
helps you do

Wireless dealers often spend too little on marketing, then can't explain stagnant growth - or spend too much without measuring ROI. The Marketing Budget Calculator gives you a starting point: a recommended marketing spend as a percentage of revenue (typically 4-8% for retail), then breaks it down into channel allocations across digital ads, local marketing, community presence, and referral programs based on dealer-tested ratios.

FAQ's

What percentage of revenue should I spend on marketing?

Most healthy wireless retail stores spend 4-8% of revenue. Newer stores often need 8-12% during growth phases. Established stores can sometimes sustain at 3-5%.

How should I split between digital and local?

Depends on your market. Urban stores often allocate 60-70% digital. Suburban and rural stores may benefit from heavier local presence at 50-50 or even 60-40 favoring local.

What if I have no marketing budget today?

Start with 4% of monthly revenue. Direct it to Google Business Profile optimization, Google Local Services, and a community presence play. Measure, adjust, scale what works.

How do I measure whether marketing is working?

Track new customer counts per channel, cost per new customer, and customer lifetime value. Marketing pays back when CLV exceeds 3x your acquisition cost.
