KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • This episode is part of our Retail Media Deep Dive series, where we discuss the shape of retail media from the perspective of brand-side digital leaders. In this episode, you’ll hear about:

    • Nestle Heath Sciences is a portfolio of brands which has a digital center of excellence, which is where Ingrid sits. She supports 15 brands with best practices, each of which might have their own model and POV about retail media & marketplaces. 

    • Ingrid views retail marketplaces as a marketing channel - just another way to get on the shopping list. 

    • Nestle Health Sciences shared ownership of retail media between the CoE and the brand. Ingrid believes in “Accountability, not siloes”. Ultimately the brands roll up to an individual P&L, and a retailer P&L within that brand. Embrace the RACI chart!

    • Ingrid’s unique perspective that Amazon should be separated out from other retail media channels once it gets to 20-25% of your business. 

    • What retail media metrics Ingrid pays most attention to.
