Walmart Connect and Seth Dallaire snuck a nugget of gold into their last article about their Vizio acquisition. Walmart's VIZIO acquisition isn't just another deal—it's a strategically redefining consumer connections in retail media. By combining Vizio's powerful automatic content recognition data with Walmart's retail footprint, they're creating targeting capabilities that Amazon can't match at Vizio's scale. The game-changer: Walmart's EVP Seth Dallaire revealed they're exploring extending Vizio's SmartCast operating system to other TV manufacturers. This would exponentially amplify their reach beyond Vizio's current 18+ million households—directly challenging Amazon's Fire TV dominance. Unlike Amazon, Walmart connects streaming ads to physical store purchases where most grocery sales happen. Major CPG brands can now link their CTV advertising directly to in-store purchases—creating unprecedented accountability for ad dollars. With Walmart already selling more than a third of all US TVs, transforming SmartCast from a single-manufacturer solution to an industry platform gives them the scale to become the dominant player in retail-connected TV advertising. #ecommerce #walmart #retailmedia #podean

Retail media has officially moved from “emerging channel” to enterprise priority. U.S. spend alone is projected to exceed $60B in 2025 (eMarketer). And yet — many brands still approach it transactionally. Effective retail media now demands: • Sophisticated, data-driven alignment in order to leverage retail media to drive more profitable sales within existing retail channels • Cross-channel strategy across retail, programmatic and owned • Cohesive brand identity across platforms • Creative tailored for retail environments This is not media buying. This is strategic brand building at the digital shelf. Retail media isn’t an extension of the plan — it is the plan.

Lauren Newman just stepped into the Button spotlight, ready to flex her nearly two decades of experience in retail media and revenue optimization as the company’s new Chief Revenue Officer (CRO). Button, calling itself the leader in mobile commerce optimization and retail media, is betting big on Newman’s track record of driving growth and sealing marquee partnerships. And let’s not downplay it—this isn’t just another LinkedIn update. “Lauren’s career is a masterclass in innovation and leadership,” says Michael Jaconi, Button’s Co-Founder and CEO. That’s not hyperbole. Newman’s resume reads like a highlight reel for anyone in digital commerce. At Red Ventures, she cranked up EBITDA by a jaw-dropping 220% year-over-year and steered the CNET acquisition to Ziff Davis. Not impressed yet? She also pulled off one of the slickest retail media moves in recent memory—a first-of-its-kind partnership between CNET and Best Buy. Yes, retail media folks, she’s played the game and made the rules. Before that, Newman helped Skimlinks (are they still around?) navigate not one, but two acquisitions—first by Connexity, Inc. and then by Taboola. Oh, and she also helmed the Beauty division at TIME., brokering deals with mega-brands like L’Oréal and P&G. If there’s a job title for "master of driving commerce innovation across industries," it might as well have her name on it. As Newman herself puts it: “I have been on all sides of the business: publishing, media sales and performance marketing.” Now, she’s ready to take the reins at Button, aiming to “revolutionize how our partners supercharge their commerce business, capitalize on direct traffic, and tap into new sources of revenue.” Button’s clearly on a growth streak, boasting partnerships with Linktree and Mavely, and claiming a whopping $12 billion in sales driven through its platform. Jaconi’s thrilled, describing retail media as “the fastest growing form of paid media in the history of the internet.” That’s some big talk, but Newman’s history suggests she might just deliver.
