Problem Statement

The dataset provided focuses on sales and market share analysis. This type of analysis is very common for the office of a Chief Marketing Officer
(CMO). Unlike the office of the Chief Financial Officer (CFO), a CMO is focused not only on company’s performance internally (how well do our
products sell) but also externally (how well do we do against the competing products).

Our company, VanArsdel, manufactures expensive electronic products that could be used for fun as well as work and it sells them directly to
consumers in three major markets. VanArsdel and its competitors have retained a 3rd party marketing company to collect and anonymize
industry sales so that all participants can benchmark themselves.

Sales data along with details of Product, Date and Geography are available in an Excel workbook. Data from these sources need to be brought
together to analyze and report on.

Document Structure

This document has two main sections:

• Power BI Desktop: This section highlights the features available in Power BI Desktop and walks the user through the process of bringing
in data from the data source, modeling and creating visualizations.
• Power BI Service: This section highlights the features available in Power BI Service including the ability to publish the Power BI Desktop
model to the web, creating and sharing dashboard and Power Q & A.

The document flow is in a table format. On the left panel are steps the user needs to follow and in the right panel are screenshots to provide a
visual aid for the users. In the screenshots, sections are highlighted with red boxes to highlight the action/area user needs to focus on.
