Marietta data visualization for owners and sellers
Marietta's Square hosts a weekly market, a Veterans Day parade and other events, and on weekdays the city works around a hospital, a university campus and an air reserve base. We draw your sales against those rhythms so the pattern shows.
Visualization for Marietta Square sellers
The Marietta Square Farmers Market runs Saturdays 9 am to noon year-round, with a break around Christmas, and Sundays noon to 3 pm from April to late fall, at 50 Park Square. A seller picks a day, or takes both.
A pair of bars of sales per hour, Saturday against Sunday, settles it. A second chart by product shows what to carry on which day.
Parade day and ordinary days in Marietta
The City of Marietta's site lists an annual Veterans Day Parade and Ceremony on the Square, set for November 14. A parade can change the day for a shop nearby.
Take that day and the same weekday a week before and after, then chart them in three bars. If the day is strong, plan stock. If a closed street cost you, you can bring the chart to the next planning meeting.
Charts for Marietta's hospital, base and campus trade
Marietta's top employers in a 2021 report were WellStar Kennestone Hospital, Dobbins Air Reserve Base and Cobb County Public Safety. Kennesaw State University runs a campus on South Marietta Parkway, and Life University offers undergraduate, graduate and online programs.
Shift workers and students eat, park and book at odd hours. A line by hour of day shows when each group arrives, and the title tells you when to open or close. An opening hour that matches the shift change can matter more than any ad.
A Marietta chart for the nominee file
The Cobb Chamber of Commerce gives a Small Business of the Year Award. We cannot enter you or promise a result, but a clear picture of growth is the kind of exhibit an owner might attach to such an application.
Growth by year as a line, customers by month as bars, each title a single claim, each bar open to the rows behind it.
Questions from Marietta owners
Which day of the week should a chart compare?
The days you can change. If you can open on Sundays, chart Sundays against Saturdays. If you cannot, chart the days you control, and the title says which comparison you chose.
Can a chart help me decide on a second market day?
Yes. Takings per hour for your current days set a bar to beat. A second day needs to clear it by enough to cover the extra hours.
Do I have to learn spreadsheet formulas first?
No. You send the export, we do the arithmetic, and you receive the chart. The chart traces to the rows, so you can learn the formulas later if you wish.
