Question 1

What chart type is best for showing revenue over time?

Accepted Answer

A bar chart is the clearest for quarterly or annual revenue — each bar represents a period, and growth is immediately visible from bar height. A line chart works better when you have many data points (monthly over several years) and want to emphasize the trend rather than individual values.

Question 2

How do I create a revenue chart for a board deck?

Accepted Answer

Add your periods (quarters or years) in one column and revenue figures in the next, then paste into AECharts. Pick the bar chart template, adjust colors to match your brand, and export as MP4 or image.

Question 3

What revenue data format does AECharts accept?

Accepted Answer

AECharts accepts two-column data: a label column (period name, segment, product) and a value column (revenue figures). You can paste directly from Excel or Google Sheets, or import a CSV.

Question 4

Can I export my revenue chart as a video?

Accepted Answer

Yes. AECharts exports animated charts as MP4 files. The bar chart animation builds each bar in sequence, which works well for LinkedIn posts, investor update videos, and slide deck recordings.
