KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • In this interview, Kiri and Paulo discuss:

    • What is one thing that Tom’s of Maine has done well with retail media networks (RMNs)? Paulo believes that “Assembling the right structure, with the right people and good company culture.”

    • How brands should think about org structure/incentives around RMNs. Paulo believes that KPI ownership can help drive action, break down silos and generate impact Vs a narrow focus only on roles & responsibilities.

    • Paulo has changed his mind about RMNs being primarily an additional revenue stream for retailers to it being an important tool to activate business priorities and help achieve company goals

    • Bobsled’s  “In it to win it” research added a lot of color to the notion that bigger budgets won’t necessarily drive better performance. It's more important to be strategic with your campaign set up and execution will lead to optimum spending. 

    • What are the metrics that Paulo tracks: top level is Consumption. The second level is to drill down into the 3 KPIs that make up consumption: Glance Views (traffic), ASP, and Conversion Rate. The third level is some of the primary triggers of each of these 3. Linked to the advertising space, which includes SOV, Ad Clicks, and Ad Sales.
