BASES Strong Activation
Sales Forecasting
Launching a product without accurate sales forecasts is risky. Overestimate demand and face excess inventory and wasted resources; underestimate demand and face missed opportunities and unhappy customers.

We combine the predictive power of the BASES Model* with category forecasting experts and unique access to NIQ & GfK sales data to deliver the most accurate forecasts in the industry.

Launch strategies are not one-size-fits-all
Bringing a product to market demands a tailored approach, not a one-size-fits-all solution. Each innovation thrives on a customized marketing strategy designed to leverage its unique strengths and deliver maximum ROI.
At NIQ BASES, we have the data and expertise to provide the most reliable advice on your launch strategy.
BASES forecasters use model simulations and NIQ data assets, seamlessly integrated with consumer research insights, to ensure your strategy is sharp, competitive, and tailored to maximize your innovation’s market potential.
Launching without incrementality is a lost opportunity
Innovations drive growth, but only if investments are made wisely. Currently, 1 in 4 product launches are not investing the right ways to drive growth, and thus shrink the parent brand.
Our incrementality forecasting not only delivers accurate predictions for your new product but also assesses its true impact on the sales and turn-rates of your existing portfolio, allowing you to make informed decisions about resource allocation, pricing strategies, and market positioning.
Gain a competitive edge in the market and optimize your overall business performance with NIQ BASES.
