Towards the end of August, I wanted to brush my new Excel skills that I learned. I needed to track something that contained numbers. So right there and then I decided that from October 2017 — December 2017, I should track my growth in all my social media platforms for gaming persona, Jempanada.

I thought it would be a fun little project and just see how many followers I’ve gained for a small period of time, so I made a Google Sheet.

My spreadsheet for Oct ’17 — Dec ‘17

I labeled the dates, the social platforms, created the formulas for each month, and even had a separate tab for a line graph.

Then every Friday, I would just enter the number of followers for that week for the next 3 months.

It took me a while to get it all set up, but I was pretty satisfied at how it looked. Now that the hard part was done, the easy part was just entering those numbers.
