# 13. Don’t: Overwhelm with text

For instance, imagine a hypothetical dashboard where you have plotted the number of monthly sales for an NFT collection for 6 months. How can you optimize the real estate next to this chart?

Instead of writing something like this self-explanatory description:

“*The number of monthly sales for an NFT collection trended up for the past 6 months:*

*In January it was A tokens sold.*

*In February it was B tokens, B-A tokens more.*

*In March and April each, C NFTs were sold.*

*May saw a brief decrease, back to February levels with B sales.*

*June had the record number of sales in this collection, with more than D sales.”*

try something like:

*“NFT sale count shows an uptrend, and combined with data in the previous chart this indicates possible concentration:*

* *The number of monthly sales for an NFT collection trended up for the past 6 months from January to June (minus a brief decrease in May)*.
* *On the chart above we saw that the number of unique monthly buyer wallets consistently decreased in the same time span. This indicates that the collection is concentrating in a smaller subset of wallets.*
* *Is this trend neutral, positive, or negative? The next section helps us understand the implications.*”
