This solution is launching at a time when marketers are demanding more proof-of-performance through advanced targeting and measurement, and more accountability from their media investments.
“While the industry is focused on identifying alternative currencies, Disney is doubling down on driving real-world results for brand clients each and every day,” said Lisa Valentino, EVP, Client Solutions and Addressable Enablement, Disney Advertising. “The unrivaled reach of Disney, amplified through retail media insights from one of America’s leading grocers, results in a better experience for both viewers and advertisers, and actionable results for our clients.”
By connecting Disney’s premium inventory to Kroger Precision Marketing’s data science and targeting capabilities, advertisers can reach audiences through the most impactful streaming content and ultimately measure the sales impact on the back end across Kroger stores. PepsiCo was the first advertiser to work with KPM and Disney during alpha testing.
“The collaboration with Kroger Precision Marketing and Disney provides an exciting opportunity for brands to meet consumers where they are by leveraging KPM’s first party consumer data to reach the right shopper at the right time,” said Carol Simpson, Sr. Director of Shopper Marketing at PepsiCo. “As consumers spend more time with streaming TV, it is increasingly important for industry providers and advertisers to work together to bring innovative solutions like this to the marketplace.”
