🌟 It's all about the connections we make and the fun we have along the way! 🌟 In the fast-paced nature of daily working life, it's easy to forget that what truly makes it all worthwhile are the relationships we build and the joy we find in what we do. We are all human and want to be happy and feel connected. At SMG, we are a people-first business—but what does that really mean? For me, it's about prioritising engagement and enjoyment in what we do and the relationships we build with each other, our clients, and our partners. In doing this, our businesses naturally thrive. We were lucky enough to experience this in abundance at Cannes, and it reminded me of the importance of creating these moments and opportunities - big or small - throughout the year. Let's keep connecting, having fun, and growing together. Because happy people are the foundation for success! ✨ Katie Streeter Hurle Lee LeFeuvre Samuel Knights David Bromfield Mark Sweatman Sean Crawford Matthew Lee Rosie Houston Helen Johnson Jodie Verrall Holly Conway Philippa Milfull Elly Rossmaur Kate Birtwistle Orlagh Newman Abbie F.

Our Chief Commercial Officer, Lee LeFeuvre, took to the stage at MAD//FEST today to discuss the 15 retail media lessons needed to succeed in this booming industry. Missed out on Lee's talk today? We've got the highlights: 🐝 Retail media is a real buzzword at the moment but many of us have the definition wrong. Lee summarised it as: “...any media that is owned and operated by a retailer or that is targeted using retailer data.” 🛍️ It's also certainly not just digital and every campaign needs to be carefully planned to consider the full shopper journey in-store, online, and offsite. 📈 Operating an RMN takes a huge amount of investment, a complex ecosystem of partners, and a proliferation of channels to choose from. Those who get their RMN set up right can see significant growth. 📊 Data from Plan-Apps shows that retail media can impact metrics across the full funnel and therefore should not be seen just as a lower-funnel conversion tool. 🤝 Brands that are prioritising measurement dramatically improve their ROI. As retail media matures, only retailers who are willing to be truly transparent with their supplier brands will succeed. 📺 Retail media, quite simply, is just media and the industry will start to think like this as the landscape continues to evolve. We’ll be sharing the full breakdown of Lee’s 15 retail media lessons soon, so keep your eyes peeled 👀 #RetailMedia #Madfest24

Representing Women in Data at SMG 📊 🤔 Did you know that for every 4 people working in data, only 1 is a woman? According to Women in Data®. At SMG, we punch above the national average with 41% of those working in data roles being women. Something that one of our SMGers takes pride in acknowledging. Hear from Dani R., Senior Insight Manager, on what this means to her... "When I interviewed for SMG and saw that my manager and her manager were female, I knew I wanted to work here. There's significant diversity at all levels at SMG, with women often making up the majority in meetings. SMG exemplifies how diversity benefits everyone. As an advocate for girls in STEM, I've worked with the Girl Guides for 15 years and will soon join 'Girls in Data' to inspire more girls to pursue careers in data. I'm proud to work for a company so advanced in promoting women in data roles." 🔎 Looking for your next role in data?
