Roundtable: Marketers Pump the Brakes on Retail Media: a first look at the ANA’s Second Wave on RMNs(11:10am - 11:20am)
In the Spring of 2023, the ANA conducted our first member survey on attitudes, usage, and expectations of retail media. We found the platform to be well established, credited with driving sales, but not yet a proven brand-builder. Further, marketers felt pressured – a “have to buy” vs. “want to buy”. We were eager to field a second round to capture the rapidly shifting landscape and user perceptions. What we found surprised us, and questions the extraordinarily optimistic expectations for growth. Set to publish in late Spring, John will share some of the more provocative toplines for the report.

Speaker: John Paquin, Senior Director, Brand & Media, Association of National Advertisers

Session I: Retail Media: The Perfect Intersection of Branding & Performance (11:20am - 11:55am)
Retail media's perception as a performance channel undervalues its considerable impact on branding effectiveness. Andrew Lipsman, independent analyst at Media, Ads + Commerce, will illuminate why brands are now getting the best of both worlds whether their retail media campaigns occur on-site, off-site, or in-store. He'll show why high-quality display and video creative on e-commerce websites are effective at driving brand choice, how closed-loop targeting and measurement in TV unlocks new opportunities for brands, and how in-store retail media delivers audience scale and attentiveness with proximity to the point of purchase.
