Digital Marketing - Study Notes:
What is data visualization?
Data visualization involves placing data in a visual context to help people understand significant trends or patterns. This is important as it helps marketers to detect changes that would otherwise go undetected.
Some of the most popular data visualization tools include:
- Google Data Studio
- Tableau
- Microsoft Power BI
- Microsoft Excel
Data visualization dashboards are powerful tools for deriving data insights and communicating important information to multiple stakeholders.
Tailoring data visualization
It is important to tailor data visualizations to different audiences. For example, a senior leadership audience may only want to see the high-level financial results and a short analysis, while a data science team would be receptive to more detail and interactivity within a report.
Klipfolio provides a handy resource containing multiple marketing dashboard templates. These can be used as inspiration for your next report.
