Importance of a cross-channel, cross-retailer
approach
If advertisers want to maximize sales
and grow their brand, no longer can
they look at retail media as a stand-
alone channel.
They must take a cross-channel retail
media approach that is inclusive of
traditional retailers as well as search,
social, and programmatic.
28. Lean into experts
28
In a complicated and rapidly changing
environment, brands are capitalizing on partners’
specialty skills, tech, and experience on their
path to an integrated and comprehensive
ecommerce strategy.
“You need to find the best agencies leveraging
the best tech in order to compete.”
