So I'm sure you've gone to the store before and thought something would be there and it wasn't.

And another time you went, And there was a ton Why? something called forecasting and planning.

So forecasting, what is it?

Forecasting is simply a prediction.

It's a guess, an educated guess based on past experiences.

So companies that have been producing these products year after year,

they have a ton of data that they can use to determine what their forecast should be of how much,

how often, how, when and how often something should be produced.

based on a few things.

And almost every company that has a product or service use forecasting in some aspect even if they don't call it forecasting.

Your meteorologist or your weather person, forecast right the weather forecast they're using past data

and instruments to determine what the forecast will be for the week

and that data is pretty accurate at this point in the game all types of companies use

uh forecasting uh to determine how much they will sell this year based on how much they sold last year

or the year before any uh seasonality

that could be associated with a product this is why you

see valentine's day items on the shelf in mid to late january

and you see that saint patrick's day stuff on the shelf right after valentine's day is over with

because of forecasting and and planning, but forecasting is used in several different aspects.

Believe it or not, when you're planning your money to pay bills and things like that, you're forecasting.

When you're looking at Is this in the budget?

It's an aspect of forecasting.

But let's look at forecasting from a bit of a different perspective, because it boils down to knowing the relationship of forecasting

and a few other variables that really determines how well a company operates

when it comes to their supply chain or just operating efficiently.

So first we have what we call customer demand.

This is what happens when customer demand goes up.

But supply is low, your prices are going to be high because you have a very hot commodity or product.

Everybody wants it, but there's not enough of it.

They're going to raise the prices on those things.

One, because they can make a profit from it.

But two, because it's in such high demand and supply is low, it's going to be very hard to get the product.

This happened with the PS5.

the PlayStation, they did raise the prices when it first came out.

Now the opposite happens when supply is high but demand is low right?

Companies have a ton of inventory and they want to get rid of that inventory as soon as they can because remember, inventory on the shelf companies is cash.

So we don't want our money just tied up on the shelves.

If we can sell it, we're going to mark it down, mark it down, mark it down until people actually start buying it because we have too much inventory.

So when supply is high and demand is low, That is when you have decreases in prices and price drops

and advertisement for things because companies are trying to get rid of inventory.

So it starts with customer demand and capacity to meet that demand.

How much are the consumers like you and I are asking for of this particular product?

based on consumer demand and the past data that we have, based on consumer consumption, what they've already purchased before, right?

Last year, previous year, last six months, however you wanna run it.

Now we can take both of those data points and determine what the forecast should be.

Now that we have numbers, legitimate numbers, we can move into our planning phase, right?

We're gonna produce this much, at this time and we're going to sell it at this price.

And then we may increase or decrease that Based on.. past experiences, as well as customer demand.

The reason customer demand is always important is because sometimes there are trends

that are taking place in the marketplace that last year's data will not capture.

And because of that, we always have to stay abreast to what's going on in the current industry

or the environment so that we can factor that into our forecast.

And then the last piece of that is when you begin to schedule things for production.

Thank you.

Right, because you can plan, you could forecast based on consumer demand and consumption, but your scheduling is also very important, right?

You can't just produce a ton of inventory.

It's very expensive to do and you don't want a lot of it just sitting on the shelves because one, They have a shelf life,

especially perishables or let's say bread or milk.

You can't produce a lot of that.

They have very short expiration dates.

Right.

But even computers and televisions, those products to depreciate over time. So.

Companies want to sell their inventory fast.

This is where inventory turnover comes in.

You want your product on the shelf only so long sold.

By the time it sells, you want your product right back on the shelf.

So you don't want it selling too fast.

You don't want it selling too slow.

balance of power, right?

But that is forecasting in a nutshell.

So key takeaways, forecasting is just a prediction based on past experiences, and Customer Demand.

The important thing is understanding the relationship between customer demand, forecasting, planning, and scheduling.

쉐도잉이란? 영어 실력을 빠르게 키우는 과학적 방법

쉐도잉(Shadowing)은 원래 전문 통역사 훈련을 위해 개발된 언어 학습 기법으로, 다언어 학자인 Dr. Alexander Arguelles에 의해 대중화된 방법입니다. 핵심 원리는 간단하지만 매우 강력합니다: 원어민의 영어를 들으면서 1~2초의 짧은 지연으로 즉시 소리 내어 따라 말하는 것——마치 '그림자(shadow)'처럼 화자를 따라가는 것입니다. 문법 공부나 수동적인 청취와 달리, 쉐도잉은 뇌와 입 근육이 동시에 실시간으로 영어를 처리하고 재현하도록 훈련합니다. 연구에 따르면 이 방법은 발음 정확도, 억양, 리듬, 연음, 청취력, 말하기 유창성을 크게 향상시킵니다. IELTS 스피킹 준비와 자연스러운 영어 소통을 원하는 분들에게 특히 효과적입니다.
