Sales Excel Dashboard

Running a sales business can be very difficult. There is personnel to track, markets to investigate and most difficult of all, finances to manage. One aspect of your business’s finances that you have to manage with great care is the revenue that your business makes. In order to maximize your revenue, you have to understand where it is coming from, which products are selling and who is making the most sales. One tool that can help you do all those things is the Sales Excel Dashboard.

How to Use the Sales Excel Dashboard

The first step is to download the free and easy-to-use Sales Excel Dashboard from this website. To view it, open it using Microsoft Excel.

Upon opening the dashboard, you will need to input the name of your company in place of the default name. After doing that, go to the “List” tab at the bottom of the spreadsheet. Here, you will add all the years, quarters, regions, industries, products and sales representatives that you will want represented on your dashboard. Lastly, go to the “Data” tab and input all the sales information for your company.

Once all the data is input, you can look at your dashboard to see a summary of revenue by industry, product, region and sales representative. Change the year and quarter by selecting them from the drop down lists at the top of the main dashboard page. Furthermore, you can look at the “Calculations” tab for more detailed information on each quarter’s sales.
