Monthly Sales Dashboard for Real Estate Companies
What is a
Monthly Sales Dashboard
? Monthly sales dashboards are considered important month end performance tools and are used by executives and sales leaders to slice and dice monthly sales data. Some of the main functionality in this type of dashboard is that it enables easy sales monitoring using six charts as well as with KPIs. The user selects the month from the drop down box at the top of the dashboard and this will display all the charts and metrics based on the chosen period. The analysis includes: 1) Sales for the top 5 agents, 2) Actual versus budgeted sales per agent, 3) Sold units by state, 4) Top 5 banks - sold units, 5) Top 10 projects, and 6) Top 5 agencies. The KPI section on the top of the screen shows Total available units and Total sold units. You find an example of this type of dashboard below.
Purpose of
Monthly Sales Dashboards
for Real Estate Businesses Real Estate companies use Monthly Sales Dashboards to provide managers with an easy way to monitor monthly sales performance. When used as part of good business practices in Financial Planning & Analysis (FP&A) and sales departments, an organization can improve its revenues and sales strategies, and it can reduce the chances that monthly outliers are not detected quickly so they can be analyzed.
