Most dashboards fail before they are even built.

Not because of bad charts. Not because of wrong formulas.

Because the data underneath is structurally broken.

Here’s what I see often in small businesses:

• Dates stored as text • Multiple columns for the same metric • Inconsistent naming (Revenue / Sales / Total Sales) • Manual copy-paste every week • No clear data flow

Then they ask: “Why doesn’t this dashboard update properly?”

A dashboard is just a mirror. If the data structure is messy, the reflection will be distorted.

Before I build any report, I focus on 3 things:

Standardized column logic

Single source of truth

Repeatable data flow (no manual dependency)

Clean structure → Reliable metrics → Better decisions.

If your reporting feels fragile, the issue usually isn’t Excel.

It’s the foundation.

Completely agree. Dashboards amplify whatever foundation they sit on — messy data → misleading clarity. Standardization and single source of truth are massively underrated.
