Sales Forecasting

You are a retailer and it's time to place an order for a certain line of items for the upcoming season. Purchasing in bulk will save you money; however, how do you know how much of each item you should order?

Ordering too much will result in unsold quantities that will have to be put on clearance with very little or no margin. Ordering too little will result in customer dissatisfaction and loss of sales. You will be sending your customers to your competitors. Either way, not knowing how much you will be selling in the short, medium, and possibly long term is extremely costly.

While nobody has a crystal ball, Dunn Solutions' data scientists leverage the power of machine learning to incorporate the effects of seasonality, industry trends, pricing and promotional efforts into their forecast to predict future sales with unparalleled accuracy.
