(something) goes to show (you)

something proves that something else is true.

The website goes to show that almost anything can be marketed online.

Usage notes: often preceded by it (just):

“You can get a bigger car for twice the price, but it has the same features as the smaller one.” “It just goes to show you — bigger might not necessarily be better.”
