For any eCommerce sales manager, it’s essential to know your Amazon product consumption. An endless number of constantly occurring events influence consumption patterns: holidays, eCommerce events like Prime Day or Black Friday, promotions, coupons, and national media. To calculate with precision, you need to consider inventory, out-of-stock rate, best-seller rank, historical sales, planned media events, supply-chain challenges, and so many other variables. It can be nearly impossible to consider every input without the help of technology.
Pacvue has released a forecasting model that helps brands forecast consumption with precision. Pacvue’s model leverages machine learning across all relevant Amazon metrics, including multiple time frame run rates, seasonality, Buy Box ownership, predictive inventory, and more.
Brand teams will appreciate the ability to impact the forecast output with custom event creation, such as national marketing initiatives, anticipated supply challenges, innovation impact within the portfolio, or any other events that impact consumption. Pacvue’s model, integrated with a brand team’s portfolio expertise and consideration of future events, powers the most accurate forecasting model in the industry.
