    Money is moving into the store faster than measurement is

    eMarketer expects US in-store retail media ad spending to climb 33.1% in 2026, inside a retail media market it puts at $71.09 billion. Brands are buying the aisle.

    What they are not always buying is a clean read on whether it worked. The IAB only finalized in-store measurement standards at the end of 2024, and practitioners will tell you the harder problem is that brands, agencies, merchants, and retail media networks each score success differently.

    Why this matters

    The aisle is the last place a decision changes, and it has historically been the least measured. That gap is the reason in-store budgets get questioned every year. We tie in-store and retail exposure back to sales outcomes, and where a figure is directional rather than measured, we tell you which is which.

    Three levers

    What CPG retail marketing looks like in practice

    01

    In-store digital display

    Screens on the shelf, at the end cap, and at checkout, running creative cut for a shopper who is standing three feet away and already holding a basket.

    02

    Influencer campaigns

    Creators briefed on the product and the retailer, so the content points at an aisle a shopper can actually walk down.

    03

    Retail activations

    Sampling, demos, and in-store events, produced by a team whose day job is live events production.

    04

    One creative system

    The film, the cutdowns, the creator briefs, and the screen loops all come from the same shoot and the same idea.

    How it fits together

    One shoot, three places it shows up

    A CPG launch does not need three agencies. The same production day can feed the loop playing on a digital display screen by the end cap, the brief you hand to creators for an influencer campaign, and the video running behind a sampling table.

    • In-store and retail exposure tied to sales outcomes
    • Creator briefs that name the retailer, not just the product
    • Activations produced by a team that does live events for a living
    • A plain account of which numbers are solid and which are directional

    If the creative needs building first, that is performance video production. If the shopper is on the couch rather than in the store, that is connected TV.

    Questions

    Before you buy the aisle

    Where to start

    Tell us the retailer. We will tell you the lever.

    Where the product sits, who is meant to pick it up, and when the reset happens. That is enough for us to say which of the three is worth your money first.
