Pivot Tables and Charts to uncover hidden trends of Kickstarter Projects for the last 10 years.
- Given the provided data, three conclusions we can draw about Kickstarter campaigns:
• Theater is the most popular category while Journalism is the least popular one for Kickstarter campaigns across all countries.
• Plays is the most popular sub-category for Kickstarter campaigns.
• Summer is the most likely time to start a campaign for a successful outcome while December is the worst time for starting a successful one.
• Peak time for Kickstarter campaign was during 2014-2016 when there were the largest number of participant.
- Some limitations of this dataset:
• The data doesn’t tell what factors contributed to the outcome to make it successful or failed.
• Data set doesn’t provide what kind of backers that back up the projects.
• Data set doesn’t reflect the profitability of the projects.
• Mostly data are from Western area, very limited in Asian area.
- Some other possible tables and/or graphs that we could create:
• Graph shows how the time period between deadline and launch compared among different outcomes.
• Graph compares average number of backers on different outcomes.
• Graph summarizes average donation among all projects based on different outcomes.
