samples of sales dashboards in excel

[harlow.28]

trying to put my monthly sales #'s in a nice dashboard format with red/
yellow/green status markers and maybe some graphs or speedometers or
something showing the progress (or lack thereof).

can anyone point me to some samples to start from?

any help much appreciated!

Charley Kyd has some good material at http://www.exceluser.com.

Note that a good Excel dashboard doesn't look like a 747 cockpit with dials
and gauges everywhere. It contains good clear charts and tables showing
relevant data and trends, such that assessments and decisions can be made
effectively and quickly. You don't need "Wow!", because I've found that
"Wow!" is usually followed quickly by "Huh?".
