    We are thrilled to welcome Felipe Costa to Kevel. Felipe has joined Kevel as a Senior Solutions Architect based in Chicago. We chatted with Felipe and asked what excites him about becoming a Keveler. ⭐ "What excites me most about joining Kevel is the unique opportunity to be part of a truly innovative company. Kevel’s product stands out in the market as something genuinely groundbreaking. With the retail media industry booming, the combination of Kevel’s complete retail media platform and the growing demand for custom solutions presents an incredible opportunity to make a real impact. ⭐ What amplifies this opportunity is Kevel's exceptional team and culture. From the interview process through my first few days here, it's clear that there's a high level of quality and a strong commitment to excellence across the board. The alignment between the product, the people, and the company culture creates the perfect recipe for success, and I’m thrilled to be part of it". ⭐ A Fun Fact! 🐶+🍼 I have a 7-month-old daughter and a 10-month-old puppy. We got the puppy when my wife was 7 months pregnant, thinking it would help us prepare for parenthood—but then our daughter decided to arrive 4 weeks early! Suddenly, we were raising a newborn and a hyperactive puppy at the same time. It's been an exhausting yet incredibly rewarding adventure, especially as we get to see them grow up together and form a special bond!" Welcome to the team Felipe! #newhire #kevel #companyculture #solutionsarchitect #adtech #retailmedia #customersuccess

    🛍 Unlocking Retail Media Potential for Small E-Commerce Retailers: Insights from Kevel’s Sales Director EMEA, Paul Astbury. Retail media is no longer exclusive to the giants. Even small to medium-sized e-commerce merchants can tap into this billion-euro industry. In a recent interview with the French publication, Journal du Net, Kevel’s Sales Director, Paul Astbury, shared some key strategies to help smaller merchants profit from this rapidly growing space. 💬 To get started, site traffic is crucial, but to maximize potential, e-merchants need to scale. For optimal results, Paul suggests aiming for 500,000 unique visitors per month to truly attract advertisers. 📈 But traffic isn’t the only factor: Paul notes that "between 3 and 6 months, the e-retailer can already achieve a positive ROI." So, retail media doesn’t just offer potential revenue; it provides a relatively quick return for those ready to make the leap. 🛠 Tech and user experience are key: "The experience must meet advertisers' needs," explains Paul. Retailers need to adopt flexible, user-friendly technology that evolves with their business. At Kevel, we believe in empowering retailers of all sizes to succeed in retail media. The right mix of traffic, ad tech, and timing unlocks a new revenue stream. #RetailMedia #RetailMediaCloud #Kevel #Ecommerce #AdTech #RetailMediaNetworks #RMN
