FAQ

Resource questions, answered

Are the guides and templates free?

Yes. Every guide, report and template is free. Most download as a PDF after a short form with your name and work email; the marketing research and the build-versus-buy guide read in the browser with no form.

Which templates can I download?

Looker Studio (formerly Google Data Studio) and Tableau dashboard templates, a marketing dashboard, a UTM cheat sheet and Improvado's Marketing Common Data Model. Each template page lists what its pack contains.

What is Improvado's marketing research?

Original operator studies built from public sources: company deep dives and industry maps. The multi-location healthcare edition covers 13 clinic categories, with 33 company audits drawn from 462 public sources. Every edition reads in the browser.

Are the media kits Improvado's own?

No. The media kits summarise other publishers' advertising products, such as audiences, formats and rates, for media planners. Improvado is not affiliated with those publishers, and the kits are listed under their own filter.

Where are the customer stories and dashboard examples?

Customer stories with their results are on the case studies page, dashboard examples by use case on the dashboards page, and every platform change on product updates. All of them are listed on this page under Everything we publish.
