The Project Management Institute found that 70% of projects fail to achieve their original goals — and the most common cause isn’t talent or budget, it’s the absence of a tracking system. This Selling gives every task an owner, a deadline, and a status.

What’s inside this Selling template

• Status dashboard — one cell changes from green to red the moment a deadline passes
• Risk log tab — document known risks, likelihood, and mitigation in one place
• Meeting notes tab — keep all project decisions in the same file as the task list
• Client-facing summary tab — a clean view you can share without exposing internal details

Why Google Sheets for Selling?

Google Sheets is the only project tracking tool your whole team already has access to. No new software to learn, no seats to purchase, no onboarding delay — just share the link and the project is visible to everyone in 30 seconds.

Frequently asked questions

Can I share this with my whole team?

Yes. Share the Google Sheets link with edit access and everyone updates their own tasks directly. The dashboard reflects all changes in real time.

Can I use this for multiple projects at once?

Yes. Duplicate the project tab for each new project and use the summary tab to see progress across all active projects simultaneously.

Does the template send deadline reminders?

Google Sheets does not send notifications natively, but you can set up email alerts using Google Apps Script — a one-time setup that sends a daily summary of overdue tasks.
