The research starts with the extensive procurement process of data/information and statistics from company annual reports, government websites, statistics agencies, and paid databases. This information creates a base for the study. The information also helps to define the scope and to narrow down the area for study for the market. This raw information is processed and analyzed to extract crisp data points which currently affect or are likely to affect the industry during the forecast period. After analyzing the information, a proprietary statistical tool is used for market estimation and forecast, which generates the quantitative figures/sizes of the market/sub-segments in the current scenario as well as for the forecast period.
After estimating the market sizes and estimates, the numbers are verified with industry participants and key opinion leaders. The wide network of industry participants add value to the research and verify the numbers and estimates provided in the study. At the last stage of the research process, a final report is prepared, which is then published on different websites as well as distributed through various channels. The below figure contains the different stages of the research process to produce the report.

BREAKDOWN OF PRIMARY RESPONDENTS
FORECASTING METHODS
We at Wantstats follow an extensive process for arriving at market estimations, which involves the use of multiple forecasting Methods as mentioned below.
Forecasting Methods
Description
Qualitative and Quantitative Analysis
A combination of qualitative approach, i.e., primary interviews with industry experts to understand the interviewees’ opinions and judgments, more commonly known as the Delphi method, and quantitative analysis to forecast future data based on historical and current data.
Weighted Average Approach
Via this approach, future data is calculated based on the mean of the past data under the assumption that some factors affecting the market in the past will continue to have a similar impact in the future.
Drift Method
This approach is used to vary the forecast, that is increase or decrease market factor over time depending on various parameters affecting the change in the trends of the market.
Time Series Methods
Integration of several time series methods such as moving average, moving weighted average, linear prediction, and trend estimation are applied while determining the year-on-year growth rate and the compound annual growth rate of the market being studied.
Causal/Econometric Forecasting Methods
Various economic factors such as inflation rate, fiscal policies, changes in government regulations, taxes, labour costs, and interest rates are taken into consideration while determining the current market size and predicting the future market growth rate.
Judgmental Methods
This involves collection of intuitive judgment, opinions, and probability estimates from industry experts in the case of new or upcoming markets/technologies for which no prior data is available.
Regression Analysis
This type of statistical modelling is carried out for predicting and forecasting dependent and independent variables that will directly or indirectly impact the market.
Probabilistic Forecasting
This forecasting method is carried out to assign a probability to every possible outcome ranging from the least optimistic to highly optimistic, which helps in gauging the market under stable conditions.
PESTLE Analysis
Political, economic, social, technological, legal, and environmental factors are taken into consideration while deriving the fluctuations in the growth rate of the market.
Porter’s Five Forces Analysis
By understanding the supplier-side and demand-side factors, the current market scenario can be estimated, and future market scenario predicted, which aid in deriving the growth rate of the market.
RESEARCH METHODOLOGY FOR MARKET SIZE ESTIMATION
Understanding and penetrating the market in terms of valuation is crucial task in the process of business research. This again becomes significantly important while investing and choosing the business opportunities. In this regard, we at Wantstats performs two ways market sizing approach simultaneously namely top-down and bottom-up approaches. In this step, we place different data points, numeric attributes, information and industry trends at an appropriate space to deduce the estimates & forecast values over the coming years. We use different mathematical models to estimate the market sizes of different economies and segments. Each of which is further summed up to define the total market.
We at Wantstats owns a proprietary statistical tool for market estimations which helps us to comprehend market size estimates & forecasts for different markets and industries.
In the bottom-up approach, the revenue of key companies and their shares in the market is assessed to deduce the market size. More than 80% key players operating in the polyp’s market is studied. The segmental revenue of each player is analyzed and the market size for seborrheic dermatitis treatment’ market is extracted from the segmental/product revenue with the help of secondary and primary research. This extracted market size for seborrheic dermatitis treatment’ market is then validated from industry experts and partner consultants. This derived market size contributes around 65 – 70% of the total global market share in terms of revenue for seborrheic dermatitis treatment’ market. Using the diagnosis of data triangulation method, the overall global market size is estimated.
TOP-DOWN APPROACH
This overall market size is then used in the top-down procedure to estimate the size of the other sub-markets with the help of percentage splits of the market segments from secondary and primary research. The demand side analysis is conducted in which spent analysis for major industries in each region is studied. The end-users considered in the scope of this research study contributes around 70 % of the total in the polyp’s market.
The countries considered in the scope of Seborrheic dermatitis treatment market are US, Canada, Mexico, the UK, Germany, France, Italy, Spain, Switzerland, Austria, Belgium, Denmark, Finland, Greece, Hungary, Italy, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Slovakia, Sweden, Romania, Ireland, China, Japan, Malaysia, Indonesia, the Philippines, South Korea, Singapore, India, Australia & New Zealand, South Africa, Egypt, Nigeria, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, the UAE, Bahrain, Kuwait, and Oman, Brazil, Argentina, Chile, and others. However, the number of countries vary from devices to devices and it solely depends on the product approvals in the respective countries and the commercial availability of the products.
Below figure explains the process of market estimation using independent tool employed by our analysts to get the sizing of the market.
DATA TRIANGULATION
After arriving at the overall market sizes, the total market is divided into several segments and sub segments. Again, market breakdown and data triangulation procedures are implemented wherever applicable, to complete the overall market engineering process and to collect the exact statistics for all segments and sub-segments. The data was triangulated by studying various factors and trends from both demand and supply sides. Along with this, the market was validated by using both top-down and bottom-up approaches.
VALIDATION
Validation is the most important stage of the report making process. Validation via an intricately designed feedback process helps us to finalize the sizing estimates and forecast for the final collation. Extensive primary research is performed to verify the information. This includes telephonic & personal interviews, mails, feedback forms, questionnaires and polling options/answers with the group of relevant people. Validation helps to duly check the authenticity of the key industry trends, market dynamics, company market share, different business models & their conclusions.
