CASE STUDY: ALBERTSONS MEDIA COLLECTIVE
Clinch Powers Creative Personalization, Ad Serving, and Optimization for Albertsons Media Collective
Situation
Albertsons, the second largest supermarket chain in the US, recently launched their retail media network, Albertsons Media Collective aimed to raise awareness for CPG advertisers, curate a more relevant shopping experience for Albertsons customers, and ultimately drive sales. But launching a retail media network is an extremely complicated process that presents a myriad of challenges and considerations:
Clear and accurate real-time campaign reporting data is necessary to monitor performance and track ROI
Ensuring that every ad served reflects highly relevant, and locally accurate information suited to the wants and needs of the customer
Flexibility to position featured advertisers, products, and promotions accordingly, and agility to adjust creative assets at scale
These challenges are impossible to overcome without the right strategy and technology partners. Successfully launching hundreds of active campaigns, reaching millions of consumers at thousands of locations can seem like an insurmountable feat. Flight Control provided Albertsons the agility to remain in lockstep with constantly evolving shopper behaviors, as well as the foresight to meet the demands of brands eager to capitalize on their network.

Solution
Creative Flexibility, Seamless Execution
Within Flight Control, a library of creative templates were created for Albertsons Media Collective’s network of brand advertisers, based on the client’s strategy and/or products, and formatted for display and social channels. These dynamic creatives featured locally enriched product feeds that updated daily with product/price data for each of their 2300 stores.
With 2300 store locations across 34 states, each with a unique and geographically specific customer base and product inventory, Albertsons Media Collective needed a solution to automate, scale, and optimize the massive volume of hyper-localized product-centric campaigns.
Flight Control enabled Albertsons Media Collective to:
• Automate and optimize hundreds of hyper-local product campaigns for CPG advertising partners
• Raise awareness for sponsored product inventory
• Support local retail divisions while maintaining creative quality control
Advanced Feed Setup and Management
Albertsons Media Collective’s social and display campaigns required the meticulous assembly of location and product feeds tied to each of their 2300 stores, inclusive of millions of products, respective brand’s colorway, logo, product, prices, and click through URLs for a user’s nearest store.
Built-in Integrations, Faster Speed to Market
Flight Control is integrated with all major tech partners to provide more efficient omnichannel activations, drastically reducing setup time from several weeks to just a few days:
enabled the auto wrapping of tags across the entire campaign, which reduced the trafficking process time from days to minutes.
negated the need to manually traffic, and directly ingest IAS wrapped tags, which eliminated human error, lowered manual work, and cut turnaround times from days to minutes.
As a certified Meta Business Partner, and preferred social personalization vendor, Clinch enabled Albertsons Media Collective to seamlessly activate and optimize dynamic creative optimization (DCO) campaigns across Facebook at the same cadence as programmatic, and at enormous scale.
