🎯 Project Objective
The goal of this project is to transform raw sales data into useful business insights that can support better decision-making.
We are following the complete data-analysis process:
Raw Data → PivotTables → Analysis → Visualization → Dashboard → Business Insights
This project is also designed as a practical example of how Excel can be used for real-world sales and business analysis.
You can follow along with the project using the practice dataset shared for this series.
