I presented a made-up dataset of quarterly bookings and demonstrated how to use Excel's forecast dot ETS formula to predict the unknown future quarter, specifically for 2025 Q3. I explained the necessary inputs for the formula, including target dates, historical values, and seasonality parameters. I encourage you to apply this method to your own forecasting efforts to improve accuracy. Please review the steps and try implementing the forecast in your upcoming projects.
