Sales Forecasting is the process of predicting future customer demand for an organization's goods and services. It helps organizations to identify potential problems and take suitable action to prepare for them or mitigate the risk. There are three types of sales forecasts: short-term, medium-term, and long-term. Short-term forecasts are sales projections for 3-6 months, medium-term forecasts are sales projections for 6 months to 2 years, and long-term forecasts are sales projections for 2 years to 5 years.

Sales Forecasting is important for future sales planning, promotional planning, effective production planning, framing product policies, minimizing inventory costs, ensuring proper warehouse management, tracking overall performance, and improved labor management. There are two methods of sales forecasting: qualitative and quantitative. Qualitative techniques include expert opinion or consensus method, Delphi method, consumer survey method, salesforce estimate, and sales hierarchy estimate. Quantitative techniques include moving averages, sales ratio method, market share projection, and regression analysis.

As an example, Tesla uses a combination of qualitative and quantitative techniques to forecast sales. They use expert opinion or consensus method to get an idea of the market conditions and consumer survey method to get an overview of customer intentions and preferences. They also use moving averages to forecast sales by considering the average of past sales over a specific period. Additionally, they use sales ratio method to analyze past trends in the sales ratio and market share projection to estimate the total market sales and the competitive level of the organization.
