(This is the part that gets the opens.)\n[ your take… ]\n———\nHere is a real one you can run this week 👇\nAlbertsons Media Collective rolled out in-store incrementality measurement to prove the true impact of in-store media campaigns on customer behavior and plans further expansion, per Progressive Grocer and other sources in 2026.\nHere's the cool part — the lever almost everyone misses (and you don't have to): in-store media measurement means you can A/B test shelf placement without guessing. Albertsons is selling brands the data to prove which shelf position, which signage, which promotion timing moves units. This week: if you're in Albertsons, ask the media team to set up an incrementality test: run an end-cap promotion in two markets, measure the lift in store traffic and basket size, and use that data to bid higher on proven placements. The retailer now wants you to optimize—because optimized spend means more bids.\nWhat that means for you: Retailer media is usually a black box. Albertsons just opened it. The upside: brands can now spend smarter. The downside: the data will show which placements don't work, so your CPM will rise where it does. If you're already in Albertsons, get into the incrementality program now. If you're not, this measurement layer is what Albertsons will use to recruit brands later.\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 — Progressive Grocer: https://news.google.com/rss/articles/CBMiogFBVV95cUxNTGNheEdYb0VIaXpabWp0Z3Y2di01YUM2QUo5SGc2YVpOeWdveGVERzA0eUQ2M2thMzREb05lOUh4UDV3ZEU5OUwzUXRxTWJkVGtXaHlTOE50MGhYQzB1SjN4T28xRlBscGJCcjNETEV3ZGpqQ3hyd1pZN2xuMXM1b29UbWZ6S1M0dlJFbVc5ZFlRSnFQd09tQWZhODBuVzVtWUE.)\n———\nOr — want it built FOR you?
