(This is the part that gets the opens.)\n[ your take… ]\n———\nHere is a real one you can run this week 👇\nModern Retail reported that retail media networks are under pressure to prove actual media impact, with advertiser skepticism growing around true incrementality, as seen in coverage of World Cup retail media opportunities and broader network accountability.\nHere's the cool part — the lever almost everyone misses (and you don't have to): if you buy media from a retail network, ask for an incrementality read before you scale spend. Ask them to run a control group test—spend on the product in 50% of stores, don't spend in the other 50%, then measure the lift. If they can't or won't, they don't have the infrastructure to measure what matters. Move your budget to a network that will.\nWhat that means for you: Retail media is at the inflection point where measurement becomes table stakes. The networks that built it first still don't all have it. That's a moat for the ones that do.\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 — Modern Retail: https://news.google.com/rss/articles/CBMiuAFBVV95cUxNNFZFMlhPM2FHbS1MUHMyajNSWGNBQXN0UWMyTWJGTHVCTjdpVVMyLVR2a3cyLU9keXFRalNHby1IWktyQ2RUajN0REp1U2UyaGM3aU9Jb0VLSGRQa1ZpZjVCVnRNQmVKMTk0cmpVNmwydU1MSVBkNC1mLUxzVkt3RUJycXBfOVZ5aDVSMjFtZkVEVlMwYVRmVzNBU1lnVVJpUW94NmhMQUlmcUVKSDNMY2VQcUpRSXlE?oc=5.)\n———\nOr — want it built FOR you?
