description This article presents a practical application of Lifecycle estimation using the Bass Diffusion Model in the case of a retail store. The results from the application of the model show that the probability that a person will buy driven by advertising is 5%, whereas the probability of buying based on the recommendation of another customer is 23%. According to the sales Lifecycle results, the store’s monthly sales have stabilized and its market share is near its peak.

Al aplicar el modelo se obtiene que la probabilidad que una persona compre impulsado por publicidad es del 5%, mientras que la que compre por recomendación de otro cliente es del 23%. Al analizar el ciclo de venta del negocio se observa que este llegó a un nivel estable de ventas mensuales y se encuentra en auge dentro de la cuota de mercado que se tiene hasta el momento.application/pdfengFundación I+D+IIJMSOR; Vol. 3, Núm. 1 (2018)IJMSOR: International Journal of Management Science & Operation ResearchIJMSOR: International Journal of Management Science & Operation Research[1] J.
