Managing Weather-Driven Sales Volatility in 2018 & Beyond

No external factor impacts consumer buying behavior as frequently, immediately, directly, or meaningfully as the weather.  Your business can undoubtedly point to sales swings that occurred over the past year as weather conditions emerged, changed the focus of consumers, and altered demand for specific products and services.

And since the weather never stops changing, your company will be able to point to weather-driven impacts again in 2018 (and the next year, and the year after that…)

Increasingly, companies are turning to analytics to better understand, precisely measure, and proactively manage how climate affects their customers and their business.  Join us for our Lunch Seminar to receive an introduction to weather analytics and learn how it can help your business. Presentation topics include:

• Quantifying the impacts with weather sensitivity and weather-driven demand
• Using weather analytics for planning, trading decisions, reporting, marketing & more
• Client use case examples
• A look at how year-over-year weather volatility impacted demand and sales in 2017.

Seminar Topics Include:

• The Weather “Blind Spot” and Its Bottom Line Impact: The weather is a huge “blind spot” for most companies and it is not just the future forecasts. Last year’s weather is part of last year’s performance and a failure to recognise and effectively remove the weather-driven variability from historical sales leads to misaligned inventories and operational resources and reduced profitability.
• Measuring & Managing Weather-Driven Demand: Quantifying weather’s impact by category, by market and by time period and applying it in demand forecasting, allocation/replenishment, operations, pricing, sales analysis, etc.
• WeatherSmart Marketing & Advertising: Optimise customer engagement strategies and improve response rates by identifying favorable periods for email campaigns, digital advertising and other marketing activities.
• Client Case Study Examples: Hear how companies have benefited by “weatherising” their business and using weather-driven demand insights for planning and in-season decisions.
• Weather Impact Outlook: A look at weather-driven opportunities and risks including the upcoming autumn season.
