This routine will search through all sheets in the workbook (except "exclusives") and replace all instances of findMe and with "Brand". Looping through the your lookup values on "exclusives" will should take care of number 1.
Regarding number two. It would be easier to clear those cells at the same time as writing "Brand". It would take special juggling to be able to distinguish a new "Brand" from an old one. I'm wondering if you need two macros. Are you planning on doing anything between running number 1 and number 1. Combining them would be by far easier.
Also clearing the "Preceeding cells to the right" is odd phrasing. You want columns C-I of the same row cleared. Is that correct?
