Why your weekly campaign review needs a decision log

A short review sequence for reach, creative attention, delivery, and next actions.

A weekly review should end with decisions your team can own. Use the same order each week so important changes do not get buried in a dashboard tour.

Check delivery first

Start with whether spend and impressions reached the accounts in your plan. Note where delivery is missing or unusually concentrated.

  • Review priority account coverage and repeat exposure.
  • Flag broken destinations or campaigns that stopped delivering.

Review what changed

Next, compare creative attention and campaign spend with the previous period. Focus on changes with enough volume to matter.

  • Name the creative or audience behind each shift.
  • Keep the evidence beside the finding so the team can challenge it.

Assign the next move

End with a short list of actions, owners, and dates. Carry unresolved decisions into the next review rather than starting from scratch.

  • Choose whether to pause, rotate, cap, or investigate.
  • Write down what result would confirm the change was worthwhile.
THE TAKEAWAY

A strong review produces a small decision log, not a longer status meeting.
