When I show people a dot plot, the first thing they say is “Cool, but how do I make that?” and this page has all your answers. From time to time I publish blog posts with step-by-step directions on how to make amazing visualizations right inside Excel and I’ve collected those instructions for you right here.

You’ll find dozens and dozens more chart choices with updated instructions on how to make them – AND my Quantitative Chart Chooser – in my Data Visualization Academy.
