A Pivot Table is an effective tool for analyzing data and looking at trends. If you’ve ever worked with Excel, you know that there are many ways to create a Pivot Table. But if you want all of the flexibility of using a Pivot Table in Excel, then you’ll need some knowledge about how it’s made and what it does. In this post, we’ll cover the process of creating and using the most common types of Pivot Tables to get your business up and running with your digital marketing strategy.
How do you choose which values to use in a Pivot Table?
A Pivot Table is a set of values that lets you quickly filter results on a specific metric. It’s a handy tool for analyzing big data sets because it lets you view the same information in different ways.
For example, if you’re looking at sales per employee, you can look at total sales by gender and ethnicity to see the trend over time. This reveals the gender and ethnicity trends in your company’s sales.
In this post, we’ll show you how to create one with Excel, so that marketers can easily do similar calculations for their own business metrics.
What are the ways that you can filter your data in a pivot table?

For example, you can easily filter your data to show only sales by product, or you can apply filters like “monthly sale” or “sale price” to show only items sold during a specific time period.
Pivot tables are so useful because they make it easy for you to quickly find the information you want – even when there’s a lot of data.
