This is a Google powerful data visualization tool, perfect for this year
0:13
Whether you're dealing with the marketing ad, sales report, just thought data ysis

Looker Studio can transform your view and present to your data. Let's start to build some completing reports
0:24
So, Looker Studio, the Looker Studio actually formerly loaned at the actual Google
0:30
Google Data Studio lets you create customizable reports and dashboard using data for various sources
0:36
It's an amazing tool for turning raw data into insightful easily to understand reports
0:41
Now the best part is for free and integrates simply with other Google tools like the
0:45
video data sources. For example, Google Ads and much more elements. So let's get started to the setting up GoodLook Studio
0:54
To get started you needed a Google account, once you've logged it in, you can navigate to
0:58
you look at studio website and sign it in. As you can see, we already have our actual website
1:03
So then later on, I have my Gmail account already been added, and I can get started with a blank report
1:09
So here you can view all the existing reports or create new ones
1:14
What everybody does in order to add your report, after selecting your data source, it is time to add data for the report, right
1:20
So you can drag and drop different elements of visualization, like charts like graphics like take into your canvas and much more Each visualization can be customized to display the specific data you need For example what are the topic conjured by decision
1:37
And you can add, for example, the data source. And let's say that I want to go for world popularity data
1:43
I have my blint data. I can choose in specific country, and I can add a new dimension, for example, the year
1:50
the date of the range, and hitting the safe. And automatically is going to be popping up this new information
1:55
information. Now, everybody thinks that it's actually really hard to get started with customizing
2:01
your actual report. Since we can get started to connect your data, let's say, for example
2:06
from Google ytics, and I go for the name of my company, and the property. You're going to hit now
2:13
into add, and all that information is going to be added all of that. Now, customizing the report
2:20
Customization is key, guys. Click into all the elements in the report. You know
2:25
report from the customize its appearance. Now, this flexibility, guys, allows you to match the report with the branding of presentation style
2:34
So you can use drag and drop elements that you wanted to see, for example, the type of campaign
2:39
the ad format, the achievement ID, the gender, for example, and all of this information
2:46
should be generated as you are going with your actual information. What you can do of course to make this a little bit much more faster is to get started with an actual template For example let go for create a data sourced I go for template gallery And here I have Google ytics So all this information
3:08
for Google ytics can be helping me to get started. For example, I have the audience overview
3:12
Something really easy. So I clicked it here. And before we continue, it's going to be asking us to
3:17
choose some data. I'm going to go for use my own data. I choose my property. And then I think
3:25
that I'm ready to go for add. And there we go. Now, all of this information should be created
3:30
and added directly into these actual new section. So if I moved on from here
3:37
where it says October the 28, I'm going to change this from the last day to
3:43
let's say, from last year. And it's going to be updating all my elements
3:49
And as you can see, it is actually working. So now that I have the information that I wanted to see
3:55
all the elements that I do wanted to see, I can now move on into Edit and show
4:01
So we can interact with our data. Now, the Lukuk Studio reports and Interactive
4:06
you can hover charts to see detailed data points or just click to drill down into the specifications
4:13
but also engage into your audience. So once your report is ready
4:18
what you can do now is to show this. Let's say, for example, that I wanted to offer the collaboration feature
4:24
This is similar to the Google Docs as you can see actually how the file the edit viewed search page all of it directly as it comes directly from the Google Dux So this makes an excellent tool for teamwork and ensure everyone is on the same
4:37
data page. Focus into the upper side as says share and I can invite people. I can schedule some
4:44
delivery, get a report link or even any deemed report. And I can go into show and as you can see
4:50
if you already use the interface of Google, you can add a specific people in here. You have the
4:56
link setting respections and hit now into save and there we go guys it's actually really really
5:01
easy since we're actually using a template you don't need it to you can just drag and drop elements
5:06
then later on you can just see how it's going to be uploading let's see for example views i'm
5:12
going to replace it from what device are people using so it just and there you have it guys
