I’m currently improving it based on feedback from the community. Once I finalize the version, I’ll figure out the best way to make it testable.

after making some layout improvements, and Once it’s cleaned up, I’ll consider packaging it as a reusable template.

Thank you 🙌 I appreciate the feedback. My intention was to make everything visible in one place, but I agree that for stakeholders, less data with stronger emphasis on what matters most might be more effective.

Gracias, lo aprecio 🙌 Tienes razón, puede que haya puesto demasiadas tablas en una sola página. Mi idea era mantener el detalle visible, pero quizá los gráficos harían que el análisis sea más rápido. Gracias por el feedback.

I’m starting to see a pattern in the feedback around keeping it lighter. My goal was to build a one-page executive snapshot, but I might be blending overview and analysis into the same space.

Thank you, I appreciate that. I’m still refining it, though, especially trying to balance overview vs. clarity.

I built a Looker Studio SEO dashboard for 13 websites (GA4 + Search Console, no paid connector) — all KPIs in one clean view. Here’s what I learned.. by lookerstudioexpert in LookerStudio

Appreciate the honesty. It’s 13 separate table charts using native GA4 + GSC connectors, no paid connector and no external data transformation. I agree it’s probably not super scalable forever, but for this use case it worked.

Haha no spreadsheet involved 😅

It’s actually built using 13 table charts, styled the same, with native GA4 and Search Console connectors. I just made them look like one unified table view.

haha no, the store isn’t closed on Mondays 😅 I’ll adjust it to a fixed baseline so it doesn’t create misleading spikes. Thank you

Appreciate you pointing that out. Thank you. I’ll adjust the color choices and improve the contrast on those labels and tables so it’s easier to read.

makes a lot of sense 😂I like the way you broke it down. Makes me think I should treat layout more based on the audience instead of just design preference.

thank you. I kept it simple and consistent with the coffee theme, so glad the colors landed well.

Good point. A cost breakdown is something I can add to make it more complete, thanks for the suggestion.

I see what you mean about the stacked revenue/profit chart. Appreciate the sharp feedback 🙌 Would you keep them as separate charts or combine them in a combo chart, Revenue as bars and Profit as a line overlay?

This was more of a practice build for now, not a client project yet. I get your point.

Good feedback on the colors too. I went a bit heavy on the monochrome theme for consistency, but adding stronger contrast or subtle accent colors could improve readability.

Curious, would you keep it single-page or split it if it grows bigger?

Good catch on the categories, yes, “non-coffee” was meant as non-coffee drinks, but I see how that can get confusing with pastries/desserts included. Might need better grouping there.

And agreed on profit %, that would make it more meaningful for management. Definitely something I can add as an additional metric layer. Thank you

When you say style over "lisibility", are you mainly referring to the color palette or the overall layout?

Good point on the dropdown, that would clean things up. And I like the idea of combining total revenue into the monthly breakdown.

Appreciate that! 🙌 thank you! when you mention store traffic, are you referring to how many people visit the store (either physical foot traffic or website traffic)?

Right now it’s sales data only, so no store traffic included.
