Before you rush now and create a pie chart, sit back and read the following document of how to visualize data:

https://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/SIT/Visualization

You will see that pie charts are the by far worst method to display data. Edward Tufte (the guru in data visualization and a must read for everybody who wants to be serious with datawarehousing and dashboards) writes "A table is nearly always better than a dumb pie chart; the only worse design than a pie chart is several of them [...]" (p. 178, The Visual Display of Quantitative Information)

If you want to become the "laughing stock" of your folks and customers, and just show off marketing wise, then use as many pie charts as you can find. Your users however won't be able to make sense out of the data.
