    What is Marketing Budget Calculator?

    We built a tool because too many marketing budgets are built on guesswork. A lot of marketing budgets follow the same pattern. Somebody picks a number. It gets approved. The money goes into channels the team already knows. And at the end of the quarter, no one is quite sure if the split was right. Hence, we built the Marketing Budget Calculator to fix that starting point. Benchmarked data combined with our on-ground experience, now powers a tool you can use in under 2 minutes. Try it now!

    What it solves
    • Many companies still set marketing budgets based on instinct
    • Many companies still set marketing budgets based on past spending
    • Marketing budget is set based on the amount is left after other costs are covered
    How it works
    • Select your industry, enter annual revenue
    • Choose the percentage of revenue you want to invest in marketing.
    • The calculator estimates your total marketing budget
    • Recommendations are based on CMO Survey, Gartner Benchmarks
