It's been one month since TikTok's brief shutdown in the US. Most brands that had been active on TikTok prior to the shutdown are continuing to invest. But many are also exercising more caution as the future of the app still remains in limbo. In EMARKETER's Creator Economy Summit, DSW Designer Shoe Warehouse CMO Sarah Crockett told me that DSW has "pressed pause" on exploring TikTok Shop, even as the company continues to invest in creators and communities on the app. She shares why in the video below. Check back for more clips from the summit, featuring insights from Taco Bell's Nicole Weltman and Little Chonk's Bryan Reisberg. Link to the full session in the comments below.

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

One of the more fascinating takeaways I gained from my panel at CES was the evolution of the consumer, particularly as it relates to Gen Z. We’ve seen how generational shifts influence behavior, but some changes aren’t just trends—they’re signals of what consumers value now and where they’re headed. What does that mean for brands? The general consensus was this: Follow the consumer. One speaker from Jackson Family Wines shared a great example of their own experience adjusting strategy to meet evolving demand. She pointed out that while people still enjoyed a good glass of wine, they wanted options that aligned with their lifestyle. Whether that meant fewer calories or less alcohol, brands like Jackson Wines were responding with innovative products that suited new preferences. This isn’t necessarily about launching a new product or changing what you’re doing completely. It’s about being curious, and considering what the consumer is asking for, as it aligns with your brand’s purpose and values. Engage with your audience, use data to understand their needs, and test small, meaningful adjustments that align with both their preferences and your brand’s core identity. Such a great discussion! I'll share NielsenIQ's recent Spend Z report in the comments for those who are interested. Any trends you’ve seen recently that you think are here to stay?
