EP46 – Publicis' $2.2 billion bet on LiveRamp... but will advertisers buy it?
<p>In this special edition of Retail Media Therapy, Viv and Colin unpack the biggest retail media deal of the year: Publicis Groupe's $2.2 billion acquisition of LiveRamp.</p><br><p>Why would one of the world's largest agency groups buy one of the industry's most important data collaboration platforms? </p><br><p>We explore what the deal means for retailers, brands, agencies and retail media networks, and whether this is really an AI play... or something much more fundamental.</p><br><p>The conversation dives into LiveRamp's role as a neutral identity and clean-room provider, the strategic fit with Publicis assets such as Epsilon, Sapient and Marcel, and why identity resolution, data collaboration and measurement have become the industry's most valuable battlegrounds. </p><br><p>Viv and Colin debate whether access to customer IDs is becoming more important than access to media inventory, and examine the growing importance of customer graphs in an AI-driven marketing landscape.</p><br><p>They also discuss the challenges facing retail media networks and the potential risks to LiveRamp's neutrality now that it sits inside a major holding company. </p><br><p>A must-listen for anyone trying to understand the future of retail media, identity and data-driven marketing.</p><p>Grace & Co | Retail Media Experts</p><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.

EP45 – The secrets behind Türkiye's Retail Media success with Kina Demirel, Mimeda
<p>Retail Media Therapy's special episode is live from Istanbul with guest Kina Demirel, Managing Director, Mimeda </p><p>Your host is Colin Lewis.</p><p>Recorded live in Istanbul at Mimeda's studios ahead of a major retail media event hosted by Mimeda for 500 brand representatives – one of the largest retail media gatherings in Turkey. </p><br><p>Kina Demirel has spent 30 years in retail, originally drawn to loyalty programmes while studying in the UK. On returning to Turkey she joined Migros, running their loyalty programme before expanding into marketing and media. Around 15 years ago, Migros began advertising to brands using customised segments from loyalty data – the precursor to what became Mimeda.</p><br><p>Mimeda was founded four years ago as a standalone retail media company, spun out of Migros. It is the first retail media company in Turkey. Mimeda has grown from 10-15 people at launch to close to 100 employees.</p><br><p>Key Insights & Takeaways:</p><p>Hybrid shoppers are your most valuable customers. Consumers who shop both in-store and online have significantly larger basket sizes. Mimeda actively encourages brands to run campaigns across both environments.</p><br><p>Integrated campaigns multiply effectiveness. Using a single retail media channel produces a meaningful sales uplift. Combining in-store and online channels doubles the effect. Integrated campaigns consistently outperform single-channel buys.</p><br><p>Don't abandon your customer at the store entrance. If a brand invests heavily in TV, social, and outdoor, they must also be present throughout the in-store journey. From entrance to exit, Mimeda's screen and digital shelf network ensures the brand stays connected to the shopper – because without that presence, shoppers get lost in the maze.</p><br><p>Search is the critical starting point online. 65% of online shoppers begin with search. Brands that are not visible in search are effectively invisible to the majority of online shoppers.</p><br><p>Influencer ROI can be proven. By linking influencer content directly to Mimeda's sales data via trackable URLs, Mimeda can attribute purchases to individual influencers – distinguishing high-performing talent from those delivering only awareness.</p><br><p>People & Structure</p><p> — roughly a 10x increase in a few years. Teams span:</p><br><p>The Road Ahead: From Retail Media to Smart Media</p><p>Mimeda is evolving its positioning from retail media network to "smart media" – leveraging superior consumer data to serve as a strategic partner to brands, not just a media vendor.</p><p>Grace & Co | Retail Media Experts</p><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.
