Add a CountIF to a SumProduct Formula
In a previous question, Scott gave me this great formula to sum all the sales from salespeople who saw an increase in sales from 2017 to 2018:
=SUMPRODUCT(C2:C9-B2:B9, --(C2:C9>B2:B9), --(B2:B9>0))
Now I need a formula that counts how many salespeople saw an increase in sales from 2017 to 2018. I've fiddled around CountIF, but I'm still a novice with these advanced formulas, so I couldn't figure it out.
Here is sample data:
**A**---------------**B**--------------**C**----
**Salesman**----**2017 sales**---**2018 sales**
Todd Packer----------$14,547---------$15,487
Michael Scott--------$26,487---------$24,491
Dwight Schrutte------$19,124---------$19,458
Phyllis Vance--------$13,891---------$14,551
Stanley Hudson-------$17,541---------$17,541
Jim Halpert----------$15,874---------$15,732
Andy Bernard--------------$0----------$9,574
Pam Beasley-----------$2,123--------------$0
Todd, Dwight and Phyllis each saw an increase in their sales, so the result I'm looking for is 3. I want to ignore Andy since he had no activity in 2017.

You will add a "helper column" in this case. The helper column will be =IF(2018 sales - 2017 sales >0,"x","") which will then place an x (or whatever character you want) if the sales increased. Then simply do a COUNTIF like you were looking at where the condition is "x" (or the character you chose)

Use SUMPRODUCT:
To count the salespeople whose sales increased:
=SUMPRODUCT(--(C2:C9>B2:B9),--(B2:B9>0))
(this formulas will ignore salespeople whose initial results (column B) were 0)
To count the ones whose sales decreased:
=SUMPRODUCT(--(C2:C9<B2:B9),--(C2:C9>0))
(this formulas will ignore salespeople whose final results (column C) were 0)
