THE CHALLENGE

Coty aimed to use Amazon Ads, particularly Amazon DSP, to grow their brand presence while reducing ad spending inefficiencies. Competing in the saturated beauty market, Coty needed regular access to key metrics like competitor pricing and stock levels to optimize their campaigns. To devise a custom technological solution and drive implementation, Coty leaned on Profitero+ and Zenith.

THE SOLUTION

To solve these unique challenges, the teams implemented Profitero+ Shelf Intelligent Media activation for DSP – –a custom algorithm for Coty that combined predictive models built on Profitero+ digital shelf information with intelligence from Amazon’s DSP. The technology was built using the Amazon DSP bid modifiers API, available from the Amazon Ads API.

This custom algorithm leverages Profitero+ digital shelf signals, (including Coty's inventory status and price, and competitors' status and price) alongside Amazon-specific signals. Profitero's custom adjustments were made daily across all geographies.

"Shelf intelligent Media gives us an exciting opportunity to leverage in-market signals to optimize retail media. Activiations have ranged from the simplicity of pausing media when our brand products are out of stock, to complex bidding strategies based on competitor product information at the ASIN level. With the recent addition of DSP, this allows for an added layer of sophistication and efficiency."
