تفاصيل الدورة
In seven short sessions you learn to:
- Use exponential smoothing, the most popular forecasting method.
- Test your forecasts before putting the company (or your reputation) at risk.
- Assess whether your forecasts are adding value.
Many sales and marketing managers do not know basic forecasting. We boil it down to five steps, and show you how to complete each one.
This course is all about doing, not talking. You look over our shoulder and view the computer screen as we forecast sales for multiple products and industries.
Every forecaster should be able to do exponential smoothing. It is by far the most popular forecasting approach among forecasters.
One of the biggest leaps you can make as a forecaster is accuracy measurement. We show you the best way, and we use it throughout the course.
Forecasting software works, so you don't need to understand formula mechanics. Instead, we focus on how to use forecasting software wisely.
We are confident that mastery of the basic concepts provided in this course will significantly increase your forecast accuracy. The result: fewer stock-outs, higher sales, and lower inventory costs.
