About

To use the Impact/Effort Matrix template, start by listing the tasks or projects you want to prioritize. Then, for each task, evaluate its potential impact (how much value or benefit it will bring) and the effort required (in terms of time, resources, or complexity).

Place each task on the matrix based on these two factors. Tasks with high impact and low effort should be prioritized as they represent quick wins. Tasks with high effort and low impact can be deprioritized or even reconsidered. This method helps you focus on the most valuable initiatives while optimizing resource use

Growing organizations have countless to-do’s and only so many hours in a day (or weeks before a big launch) to get them done. That’s where an impact effort matrix comes in. It gives you a quick visual guide to help prioritize your tasks and know exactly what’s worth doing. Using our template, you can create a matrix that organizes your activities into four main categories: quick wins that are low effort, effort-intensive projects that provide long-term returns, fill-ins that are low effort but low value, and time-wasters.
