(This is the part that gets the opens.)\n[ your take… ]\n———\nHere is a real one you can run this week 👇\nAlbertsons Companies announced the Albertsons Media Collective now includes incrementality measurement to quantify true sales impact of in-store campaigns, per the brand's own release.\nHere's the cool part — the lever almost everyone misses (and you don't have to): incrementality is the anti-vanity metric. Instead of reporting impressions or views, measure only the revenue lift the campaign triggered that the baseline would have missed. Build this into your retail media pitch: 'Show me the incremental dollar, not the click.' Brands paying for in-store placements now have a reason to double down — proof that on-shelf media moves units, not just eyeballs. For a CPG testing retail media networks, ask the network for incrementality data before you sign the check. If they can't show it, the network hasn't built the hard measurement yet.\nWhat that means for you: Incrementality measurement is the credential retail media networks needed three years ago. Albertsons just built it — and that's the move that turns retail media from 'we have a network' into 'we have proof.' Every other grocer and big-box chain will follow. The CPG brands already running retail media should immediately ask their networks for this data. The brands still deciding: this is your opening to demand it upfront. Networks that have it win the budget.\nIf you make, sell, or gift anything with your name on it — this is yours to run. You can do this.\n(Real, not theory — Albertsons Companies: https://news.google.com/rss/articles/CBMixgJBVV95cUxQbEpDaS15cFIxdDcxTURua0duRVNFNk5QUGZsLWZwQmxVaEhSeGJuT1V2Z1dNYWp1bGRidmt5YXp4RHRMRjQydTAxVXVPMm9ETTNMc21vd3llV0RScEhZMEJoRnRXRjRWekZQQXFqYlpneVVfa1JpdHBYeXFhUWFPeWh2SjRsN2I3aWV1OFJreFVmQVhiUTRRNy1Ic2dkQVpZbzRkR2NTam5mNHVyRnhWVTFibFAtZnRYd3NzbnlJMHQ5T3BOdkc2ZzljSXJtVi1PaFd3Vi1HYVVtTnJPa2Z3ZFNCbDR0dDV2SXJLLV92ZWdNVHNoMVZnYUdhWWdXNTFnUjRmd2RucHQ5WVJWQ29KNEVWeXpHNlJaUk9PSTlxWm1zdzRwWGhTdDhTVVBUNnpBT3JtbzFpWkJFSzVvNHEwUzdMZ0VjQQ.)\n———\nOr — want it built FOR you?
