In this video, Mike Ploger will dive into five helpful data storytelling tips that show you how to create better and more persuasive data visualizations. You’ll also find out how our brains process visuals and how you can use these principles to improve your charts and graphs.
A few of these data storytelling tips include:
- Our eyes don't follow a specific order, so you need to create that order.
- Our eyes first focus on what stands out, so be intentional with your focal point.
- Our eyes can only handle a few things at once, so don't overcrowd your design.
And a few more. Watch the video to find out even more about data storytelling! Then get started putting your story into your own designs. Create an infographic or a presentation that shows off everything you learned in this video: dashboard.visme.co/login

One of those random gems you find every once in a while. I'm glad I watched this!
Clear explanation and valuable content. A boss of mine once told me : when it comes to visuals in your report and presentations, remember..less is more. Your video showed how that can be done. Thank you so much.
This video is so underrated. I find this is more helpful than my Uni :).
Really awesome info, kept me listening, (a feat not to be scoffed at), Will definitely be putting some of these techniques into practice.
Stunning! I love this channel - inspiring, informative and super relevant -
Amazing examples, thank you for the video!
The best things in life are free! Thank you, sir! Liked. Subscribed. And I hit the bell!

Thanks Darren
Thank you! With the last pie chart, I would have replaced the percentages with the legend text and, depending on the audience, mention the percentages separately.
Really great video, thank you. I'm working on how to best visually represent data and this was super clear. The "Time -> Line" one in particular is going to stick straight away I think! Thanks again.

@Marcus Felix Glad I could help :)
simple but excellence
in the 4th case I would just put in the reverse order also, keeping the color - starting from not at all to extremely. it feels more natural to me.
Nice video
Now I wish IELTS writing examiners know about this (:
Some graphs are in Berinattos book that I read in my class, im watching this before my final. Btw the presenter is hella cute !
Please do let me know the chart type name comes at 08:18. Do we have such type of chart in google data studio.
Can you help me know which chart to use when comparing 50 or more entities. (for example - comparing revenue of 50 companies per month and for each month compare revenue of 50 companies). Thankyou. need help urgently.
thanks for video! I found it really helpful! one chart grabbed my attention especially...could you please advise how to build the scale chart in excel ( i mean the chart that shows "How interested you are in this product")? thanks in advance!

Visme can't help because they've copied the content from another book. Please check Storytelling with Data by Cole Nussbaumer Knaflic.
Mike: [1] Our eyes don't follow a specific order. Me: Indeed. Like, I need to read the texts and images on the screen but my eyes won't stop following you. I'm sorry.
How does your channel have less subscribers 😍
How is it possible not to know at all? These are natural things...
Where is the 5th tip? :)

could you kindly let me know your favourite techniques or tricks to tell stories with data
When doing financial analysis, to focus on one measure or data point would be very misleading, it is critical to introduce context to the measure--which is not addressed in this video.

I think the guy should have done a better job in citing the sources! None of this content was originally created by Visme, but copied from other books and videos. Please be honest and make your references more evident next time, not so tiny in grey with your arms covering like you've done.

@@maryjanedaboss3012you must be referring to the creators of the video... as surely you're well aware it's the responsibiity of ethical creators/ writers / authors to always cite the sources used and not take someone's else work as their own ;-) In this case the content comes from Storytelling with Data by Cole Nussbaumer Knafic. Phenomenal work in case you wanna check it out and surely Visme knows the reference they're copying and they should inform properly.
You have copied all the examples from the book(Storytelling with data) by cole.:)
He is apparently look like so Turkish
Chart in Example 3 is not that effective. Products should have different colors for clarity.
Excellent video!
