Omnichannel commerce is all about connecting with consumers across all channels, with the goal of ensuring a seamless, consistent experience whenever and wherever the consumer shops. It's not just about offering options for online, mobile, and in-store shopping. It's about crafting a seamless, consistent experience and unified brand presence across all. Omnicommerce focuses on the consumer experience by integrating every touchpoint, ensuring that the focus remains on the customer rather than the channels themselves.
- 02
An omnichannel approach lets you meet your customers where they are, whether online, in-store, or in a social app like TikTok. By creating a seamless experience across all channels, you can boost customer engagement and loyalty. Plus, with the right tools, strategies, and retail media partnerships, you can gain valuable insights from their interactions to help you fine-tune strategies in real-time and for future. It’s all about making the shopping experience smooth and consistent, which ultimately keeps your brand top of mind and drives to sale.

A full-funnel approach ensures that media choices and creativity come together for maximum impact, especially at a time when consumer and shopper engagement has never been more challenging. With the ability of shoppers to move from awareness to purchase in a matter of minutes, the digital space is teeming with shoppable moments. Add to this the fragmented nature of media and ever-increasing brand and product choice complexity, and the opportunity for brands to genuinely connect with consumers has become a series of fleeting moments. This is why a full-funnel approach is the right one for many brands, as it opens up new ways of driving brand awareness that also convert to purchase, bringing a brand to life at each moment of interaction. While performance media can be a critical component of a full-funnel approach, marketers also need to drive brand distinction and establish emotional connections with consumers and shoppers.
Our MPG Strategic Marketing and Communications (SMAC) team specializes in aligning brand strategy, creative excellence, and media investment expertise across the funnel, fueling brand success that is both strategic and sustainable. This balanced approach ensures that your media spend and creative are focused on moving consumers seamlessly through the entire funnel, from discovery to purchase to brand loyalty and advocacy.

When it comes to running on Amazon, owning the Buy Box Buy (BBX %) is a game-changer. Unauthorized resellers wreak havoc by undercutting prices, creating duplicate listings, and causing channel conflicts that significantly impact brand sales, erode profit margins, and damage brand reputation. If you don’t own the Buy Box, you’re likely boosting sales for someone else. If you’re a brand with more than a dozen resellers across your product assortment—particularly those undercutting your prices—tracking, notifying, and removing sellers need to be part of your plan. Also, using our MPG team's deep Amazon experience and proprietary, advanced accounting, automation, and reconciliation platform, we can identify, track, and resolve costly 1P deductions to improve your Amazon bottom line.

When creating strategies for these marketplaces, it’s essential to see these platforms as testing grounds. For new products and brands, they allow you to test the waters without needing to jump straight into commitments with physical stores or their 1P platforms. This way, you can gather valuable insights on customer preferences and pricing strategies before making bigger commitments. Using 3P marketplaces, you can rapidly expand your product range and adjust to market demands without the full complexities of traditional inventory management, allowing for greater flexibility to support innovation. Remember, these platforms are more than just sales channels—they’re strategic tools to test, learn, and optimize your offerings for future placements and growth. Our MPG team can guide you through the intricacies of 3P marketplaces, empowering your brand to thrive in today’s competitive retail landscape.

Walmart’s robust 3P marketplace continues to rapidly evolve and grow. It now serves as a vital component of Walmart's overall strategy, enabling it to leverage its extensive logistics network and brick-and-mortar presence while offering a diverse array of products. It’s setting itself apart by focusing on the user experience, seller support, and blending online and offline shopping experiences. Amazon, the #1 eCommerce marketplace in the U.S., revolutionized the online marketplace with its third-party seller program, allowing vast product offerings and seamless consumer experiences. Sellers benefit from tools like Sponsored Products for advertising and the option to use Fulfillment by Amazon (FBA) for streamlined shipping. Plus, being part of Amazon’s Prime program can help your products stand out, as Prime members tend to shop more frequently.
Ultimately, both platforms offer solid opportunities, depending upon your brand goals. We can help you navigate both Amazon and Walmart's 3P marketplace to position your brand for success in the competitive retail landscape.

One of the hottest trends in eCommerce is a personalized shopping experience across omnichannel marketing. One of the best ways to take advantage of a personalized shopper experience is to activate highly tailored sponsored and paid search programs, as well as custom-targeted on-site and off-site display campaigns across different social platforms and web channels. These tactics meet the shopper wherever they are spending time along their shopper journey.
At MPG, we can streamline your product listings across retailers, while managing your campaigns to be personalized to your shopper. Today’s consumer wants to feel seen and understood by the brand. Relatability creates trust and loyalty, and that starts with a personalized experience.
- 06
Start by defining your retail sales objectives and target audience. Research retail media networks (RMNs), assessing their capabilities, cost structures, and integration ease. Make sure they’re able to target the right shoppers for your brand. Analyze performance metrics and review case studies for benchmarks and insights. Next, based on your brand goals, choose where to put your marketing dollars and how you will measure success. There are many options to consider, including paid search, onsite or off-site display, in-store media activations and experiences, sampling programs, connected/streaming TV, and more. At MPG, we can provide the deep expertise needed to explore the options and arrive at the most effective retail media strategies to drive your business forward.
- 07
Dollars spent in lower-funnel media programs such as paid search generally produce high returns, given granular keyword-level targeting and high interactivity with the consumer. Success can be measured best by click-through rate, conversion rate, click-through rate, and return on ad spend over monthly periods. Display and CTV effectiveness, on the other hand, are most efficiently measured by reach and impressions, as well as comparison to total sales before and after the launch of the campaign to see if sales have been impacted by this broader awareness tactic.
- 08
We always recommend leveraging first-party retailer shopper data, advanced attribution models, and controlled experiments, like test and control groups. Brand lift studies are a great way to go beyond the usual exposure metrics to see how CTV ads directly impact sales by comparing conversion rates and purchase volume with a control group. Plus, thanks to our partnerships with Amazon and the Trade Desk, we’re equipped with best-in-class API platforms and AI solutions to monitor, measure, and synthesize the data. This drives incrementality and highlights the unique CTV advertising brings to your overall retail media strategy.

Just as Amazon did, Social Commerce is redefining how consumers discover products and shop online. It’s the next frontier for eCommerce and is rapidly gaining traction in the US, capturing both consumer mindshare and share of wallet. Americans are spending hours daily on platforms like Instagram, YouTube, and TikTok–which is leading the way as the fastest-growing eCommerce platform in the world. Last year alone, this generated an estimated $75.6 billion in revenue in the US, a number expected to nearly double in the next five years. The Gross Merchandise Value of Social Commerce could reach $150 billion by 2028.
