Marketing Budget Donut Chart
This donut chart summarizes a planned Q3 marketing budget across five channels. Paid search takes the largest allocation, while content and events form the next two major investments. It gives a planning meeting a compact view of where money is assigned, but not whether the allocation is effective. Pair it with channel goals, expected pipeline, cost assumptions, and capacity. If the budget contains shared costs such as creative production or analytics, either allocate them with a documented method or display them as their own category. Use whole-quarter figures so the categories add to the same total. Review the underlying definitions and totals before using this view to make an operational decision.
Open it in the AI editor with a prompt pre-filled — keep what works, change what doesn't.
