Wholesale Planning: Forecasting Sell-In from Real Consumer Demand

November 18, 2026

1PM ET

Wholesale plans have usually been built from what accounts commit to buy. In this session, we show how Toolio forecasts sell-in from what consumers actually buy at each retail partner.

‍

You’ll see how the sell-in forecast works, what data it needs, and how to pick the right forecast method for each account.

‍

What we’ll cover:

  • Three ways to forecast wholesale demand. Rate of sale, bookings and the sell-in forecast: what each one tells you and when to use it.
  • How the sell-in forecast works. Toolio forecasts consumer demand at each account, projects the partner’s inventory week by week, and works backward to recommend what to ship and when.
  • What it takes to get there. The sell-in projection needs both partner sales data and partner inventory data.
  • Connecting it to the plan. Compare the forecast to bookings and your sales plan, then adjust receipts and open-to-buy to match.

The result is a wholesale plan driven by consumer demand at each account, not just by what each account has committed to buy.
