Congratulations
One quarterly number almost got double-counted across two reports.
Two dashboards were quietly tracking overlapping data. Caught before it went out now there's one source of truth the reports pull from, not two that can disagree.
→ A good number is only as good as the one place it actually comes from
I'd reconcile that quarterly number against unique source event IDs before publishing. Then a new dashboard can't quietly bring the double count back.
A quarter of scattered work turned into one clear story.
Three months of automations across different clients, different tools, different weeks all of it pulled into one recap that actually made sense in a single read.
→ A quarter's worth of work deserves a summary someone will actually finish reading.
