What’s Inside the DIY Craft Marketplaces Dashboard in Excel
1. Overview Page
The Overview Page gives a high-level summary of the craft marketplace business. The KPI cards show Total Revenue, Net Profit, Total Units, and Total Orders so sellers can understand sales scale, profitability, product movement, and order volume before going deeper.
Total Revenue Vs Net Profit by Month: This chart compares monthly sales value with profit so you can see whether revenue growth is translating into real margin. It is useful for spotting months where costs, fees, or discounts reduce profit.
Total Revenue by Marketplace: This chart shows which marketplace contributes the most revenue across the selected filters. Use it to compare Etsy, Amazon Handmade, Shopify, local marketplaces, or any channels used in your source data.
Net Profit by Product Category: This visual highlights the product categories that create stronger profit. It helps craft sellers decide where to focus production, promotion, and inventory planning.
2. Marketplace Analysis
The Marketplace Analysis sheet helps compare performance across sales channels. It includes Net Profit by Marketplace, Total Units by Marketplace, Profit Margin % by Marketplace, and Avg. Rating by Marketplace.
Net Profit by Marketplace shows which marketplace keeps the strongest return after costs. Total Units by Marketplace explains product movement by channel, while Profit Margin % and Avg. Rating connect profitability with customer experience.
3. Category Insights
The Category Insights sheet focuses on handmade product groups. It includes Total Revenue Vs Total Cost by Product Category, Total Units by Product Category, Avg. Order Value by Product Category, and Total Revenue by Product Category.
These visuals help you understand which categories sell most, which categories cost more to produce, and which groups create higher order value. It is useful for pricing reviews, product mix planning, and seasonal craft collection decisions.
4. Regional Trends
The Regional Trends sheet shows geographic sales and fulfillment behavior. It includes Total Revenue Vs Net Profit by Region, Total Units by Region, Total Orders by Region, and Delivered % by Region.
This page is helpful when sellers ship to multiple regions and want to identify profitable markets, strong order locations, and delivery-performance gaps. It can support shipping policy, marketing, and regional stock planning decisions.
5. Order Insights
The Order Insights sheet looks at order status, customer type, and monthly order movement. It includes Total Orders by Order Status, Total Revenue by Customer Type, and Total Orders by Month.
Use this page to check how many orders are delivered, pending, cancelled, or in another status group. It also helps compare revenue from new and returning customers and understand order trends month by month.
6. Data Sheet Tab
The Data Sheet is where you add or replace the marketplace data in the same structured format. Keep the column headers and layout consistent so the pivots, slicers, and charts continue to work properly.
7. Support Sheet
The Support Sheet contains the pivot tables used to create the dashboard dynamically. After updating the Data Sheet, go to the Data tab in the Excel Ribbon and click Refresh All. You can keep this sheet hidden during normal use.
