[...] Conclusion Looking back at the data, this report explored five important aspects of the agency's recent performance ranging from which destinations bring in the most revenue, to which agents and cruise lines are driving results. The use of pivot tables provides a solid basis for future decisions. Location 21 is the top-grossing destination, suggesting it deserves increased attention in future promotions. Bahamas Line also performed exceptionally well, becoming the agency's most valuable cruise partner. Together, these two elements could easily form the core of a high-return sales strategy.
