Overview: Each catalog is a new season and needs to be planned independently. The inventory management team starts with a product forecast and buy plan to estimate how many items will be sold in the catalog. The article discusses merchandise preplanning, using two types of planning strategies that most successful print and Web catalogs rely on to organize their work. A product forecast and buy plan worksheet in inventory planning serves as a tool for planning initial product buys down to the SKU level, while a product category and price-point grid helps buyers determine whether the upcoming catalog offering has balance and depth. It sees how these two worksheets support merchandising.
