Let’s say you’re running an e-commerce business across several regions—maybe North, South, East, West. Your ads are running, warehouses are stocked, and sales are rolling in. But then the CEO drops this one-liner:
Which region is our biggest revenue driver?
Cue the panic Unless… you’ve got Excelmatic.
Why This Question Matters
Knowing your regional sales distribution helps with:
- Targeted marketing: Double down on high-performing regions
- Logistics: Plan warehousing and shipping routes efficiently
- Sales strategy: Know where to push, where to pause
- Budget allocation: Not all regions deserve equal $$$
Pie Chart make this crystal clear.
Traditional Method = Many Clicks
To get that insight in regular Excel, you'd:
- Group sales by region using Pivot Table
- Sum and sort
- Create a pie chart manually
- Format labels, percent, colors
- Then realize you forgot one region... and start again
All that just to say: “North is doing well.” Bruh.
Excelmatic to the Rescue
Ask something like:
Display regional sales distribution in a pie chart
Create a table showing each region's sales and percentage share
Which region has the highest sales share in the dataset?
These prompts help you:
- Get a clean pie chart with auto-colored regions
- Output a summary table with total + % share
- Identify top-performing regions without complex formulas
- Present insights visually, in under a minute
When Pie Chart Are Your Best Friend
Use them when you want to:
- Compare proportions across categories
- See which region dominates visually
- Communicate clearly to non-technical folks
- Present clean, top-level summaries
Just don't use them when:
- You’ve got 10+ regions (too messy)
- You need to show trends over time (use Line Chart!)

Pro Tips
- Keep regions limited (3–6 is sweet spot)
- Always sort by value descending when showing a table
