Marketing Forecasting
Predict, pivot, profit.
Why do you need marketing forecasting?
We can't overemphasise the importance of accurate marketing and sales forecasts. Without them, driving results, building effective media plans, and selecting the right channels becomes impossible.
All too often, businesses overlook marketing forecasting or rely on hastily made plans based on internal needs rather than market research.
A thriving and sustainable business thrives on a proper forecast grounded in data. Forecasting guides the path ahead, providing crucial insights into market trends, consumer behaviour, and competitive dynamics.
With a well-researched and data-driven marketing forecast, you can make informed decisions and allocate resources judiciously.

For every business
The importance of reliable forecasting cannot be overstated for entrepreneurs and innovators in the pre-raise phase, where the critical task is securing the necessary capital for a new startup or venture.
A robust forecasting strategy isn't just "nice to have" but a pivotal step in the path to success, improving your chances of successfully raising capital and instilling confidence in potential investors.
Even after capital is secured, these marketing forecasts serve as the navigational compass for your business journey.
When venture capitalists (VCs) evaluate potential investments, they often focus on two key factors: the addressable market and the cost of acquiring a customer.
By analysing customer data and these metrics, VCs can determine if a business's marketing strategies can be optimised for future growth opportunities.
In short, VCs are looking for ways a business can improve its operations. Accurate marketing forecasting plays a crucial role here, enabling VCs to assess the effectiveness of current strategies and predict the potential impact of future marketing efforts.
For established businesses, marketing forecasting is more complex due to the wealth of data and historical records they have, including crucial information like seasonality trends.
At Indago Digital, we excel at turning this data into actionable insights. By combining historical data with future predictions, we provide highly accurate forecasts that help businesses understand growth dynamics and identify points of diminishing returns.
Our approach not only predicts future sales success but also optimises current operations, guiding sales teams to make data-driven decisions that boost efficiency, ROI, and overall business performance.
