About this item

One of the biggest challenges sales and marketing professionals face is forecasting future sales as accurately as possible. The few books published on the subject are full of arcane business school terms and complex algebraic equations. With Microsoft Excel, Conrad Carlberg manages to cut through the jargon and complex math and shows you how to produce forecasts you can rely on. Carlberg is a nationally recognized expert in Microsoft Excel and statistical analysis. He also worked in product marketing for US West, one of the seven original "Baby Bells." In Excel Sales Forecasting For Dummies, Conrad covers topics such as creating and charting baselines, regression forecasts, moving averages, smoothing, and forecasting seasonal sales.
