Vistabeans Coffeeshop Assignment (Week 3)

The attached instructions specify the creation of a report with 3 or more visualizations.  Read the solution memo carefully to understand how it relates to the dataset provided.  Think of a continuum of the visualization abilities as you decide how you will complete this assignment.  If this is your first experience with Tableau try to replicate the visualizations on pages 5, 6 and 8 (just three).  If you are feeling more confident then try all 6.  If you don’t need training wheels then make your own visualizations based on your analysis and interpretation.  Make sure you include well-written explanations of your visualizations.  Upload the completed file by clicking on the link for this assignment.
