According to Forrester Research, “brands spent at least $5 billion on retail media in 2020.” Tapping into retail media with independent and regional retailers is a growing opportunity for not just national brands, but also new and local brands, to engage with target consumers across retailers’ on-site digital properties and across off-site digital and social media. The result: more effective, efficient use of advertising budgets by engaging consumers with valuable offers and personalized communications, based on browsing and buying behavior.

  • Ecosystem of connected media: Deliver personalized, brand-safe campaigns at scale across onsite, off-site, and owned media channels
