Abstract

A system and method for performing forecasting for an event. Information associated with an event is received from a user. Historical data associated with the event is automatically captured. Additional data for the event is captured from a digital resources. A forecast for the event is generated utilizing the information, the historical data, and the additional data.

Claims

1. A method for performing forecasting for an event, the method comprising:

receiving information associated with an event from a user;

automatically capturing historical data associated with the event;

capturing additional data for the event from a plurality of digital resources; and

generating a forecast for the event.

2. The method of claim 1, further comprising:

filtering the historical data for the event.

3. The method of claim 1, wherein the event represents a future event, and wherein the historical data is associated with a previous event similar to the event.

4. The method of claim 1, further comprising:

automatically updating the forecast in response to updates to the information and additional data.

5. The method of claim 4, further comprising:

communicating a comparison of an updated version of the forecast with a forecast originally calculated in response to updating the forecast.

6. The method of claim 1, wherein the automatically capturing further comprises:

importing data from a plurality of external data sources.

7. The method of claim 1, further comprising:

automatically calculating forecast figures based on the historical data; and

analyzing data associated with the forecast to adjust the data.

8. The method of claim 1, further comprising:

evaluating anticipated risk, reach, and revenue performance associated with the event as part of the forecast.

9. A system for managing events, the system comprising:

a server configured to interface with a website or applications installed on a plurality of electronic devices, the server is configured to receive information associated with an event from a user, automatically capture historical data associated with the event, and capture data associated with the event from a plurality of digital resources, and generate a forecast for the event from an authorized user; and

at least one database in communication with the server, the database is configured to store the information, historical data, and the data associated with the event for access by the server.

10. The system of claim 9, wherein the server filters the historical data for the event.

11. The system of claim 9, wherein the event represents a future event, and wherein the historical data is associated with one or more previous events similar to the event.

12. The system of claim 9, wherein the server automatically updates the forecast in response to updates to the information and additional data.

13. The system of claim 9, wherein the server communicates a comparison of an updated version of the forecast with a forecast originally calculated in response to updating the forecast.

14. The system of claim 9, wherein the server evaluates anticipated risk, reach, and revenue performance associated with the event as part of the forecast.

15. A server for performing forecasting for events comprising:

a processor for executing a set of instructions; and

a memory for storing the set of instructions, wherein the set of instructions are configured to;

receive information associated with an event from a user;

automatically capture historical data associated with the event;

capture additional data for the event from a plurality of digital resources; and

generate a forecast for the event utilizing the information, the historical data, and the additional data.

16. The server of claim 15, wherein the set of instructions filters the historical data for the event.

17. The server of claim 15, wherein the set of instructions automatically updates the forecast in response to updates to the information and additional data.

18. The server of claim 17, wherein the set of instructions communicate a comparison of an updated version of the forecast with a forecast originally calculated in response to updating the forecast.

19. The server of claim 15, wherein the set of instructions imports data from a plurality of external data sources.

20. The server of claim 15, wherein the set of instructions evaluate anticipated risk, reach, and revenue performance associated with the event as part of the forecast.
