LONDON--()--A well-known market intelligence company, Infiniti Research, has announced the completion of their recent free downloadable resource on the ultimate guide to sales forecasting for a new product. This resource provides insights on the best sales forecasting techniques that companies can consider while launching a new product.

There are several proven techniques for sales forecasting, but when it comes to a new product, accurately estimating sales could prove to be a challenging task. This is primarily because there is no past performance data or estimates based on which sales can be calculated in the case of new products. Despite several challenges, sales forecasting is vital for planning the resources that will be needed to meet actual demand, including inventory, staff, and cash flow for new products.

How to forecast sales for a new product

Based on existing products

This involves using sales volumes of existing products to forecast demand. This method is particularly useful if the new product is a variation on an existing one or has similar attributes. In this case, chances are that the new product will sell much like the existing product, especially if no major changes are being made to marketing and distribution.

Market research

Large companies and top market players often use market research techniques. With the help of adequate market research, companies can gain a comprehensive overview of their market position, key competitors, and factors influencing the sale of the new product in the market.
