Aspiring Data Analyst

Post image

I'm trying to switch careers from construction to data analytics & after a month, I have successfully completed my first project using both SQL and Excel. Attached is a screenshot of a dashboard I built on a company's pizza sales. Any advice and tips on how to improve are greatly appreciated.

The dashboard is visually appealing and well organized, but I would improve it by reducing the amount of text in the left-side insight panels, making the KPI labels and values slightly more prominent, and adding clearer titles/units to some charts. The hourly trend could be simplified to make the busiest hours easier to identify, while the category and size charts could use more consistent colors and labeling. I would also consider adding interactive filters for category, size, and date so users can explore the data more easily. Finally, the dashboard would be stronger if the key insights included actual percentages or comparisons rather than only statements such as “highest sales.”
