The future of CPG is shoppable content
Digital content and ecommerce have been merging for years. Even in the early days of search engines, social media and blogging, our favorite products and retailers were only a few clicks away. But there’s always been a gap between experiencing content and shopping for products. When consumers encountered products they wanted while viewing digital content, they had to leave that content behind to begin the shopping process, often starting with an empty search bar and running into dead ends along the way. Shoppable content addresses that gap, integrating a seamless shopping experience within the content itself. Instead of merely inspiring…
What Your Prime Day Data is Trying to Tell You

Customer acquisition isn’t what it used to be. Back during the “golden age” of advertising (think Mad Men), the goal was to get your product in front of as many people as possible and hope that some of them buy it. Nowadays, there are much more advanced ways of targeting your ideal audience—but there are so many ways to do it that it can get a bit confusing. Today’s top brands have clear roadmaps for how to consistently acquire customers with as little upfront cost as possible. They’re optimizing their strategies and dialing in on their ideal audiences and channels…
Why Shoppable Media Matters (And How You Can Use It)
We live in a world of consumer choice, where brands offer more ways than ever to access their products and services.

How Grocery Brands Can Attract and Keep Consumers to Fuel Ecommerce Growth in 2023 and Beyond
Top tips for food, beverage, and alcohol brands to win consumers and drive growth during inflation.

And like other industries such as hardware, consumer electronics, and health and beauty, the…
Feed-Based Data vs. Crawled Data: What’s the Difference?
In Marvel’s The Avengers, Iron Man is known for his quick, brash, and (mostly) effective tactics in battle. He strikes fast, and while he doesn’t always get the job done the best possible way, his methods are usually good enough in the moment. The Hulk, on the other hand, is a bit bulkier, but his brute strength packs a much bigger punch when he utilizes it to its full capacity. The way these two superheroes differ in their approach (and their results) mirrors the difference between types of brand commerce data. How, you may wonder? Well, the quality of your…
