Marlborough, Massachusetts-based BJ’s Wholesale Club has launched its retail media program, BJ’s Media Edge, using Microsoft PromoteIQ. The program offers brands an advertising solution to connect with the club’s members.
“We are thrilled to collaborate with Microsoft and offer brand partners a highly effective, omnichannel approach in order to increase brand exposure to our members,” said Rachael Vegas, EVP, CMO. “This program will continue to provide an opportunity for brands to drive growth, accelerate new product launches and deliver on their business goals.”
BJ’s recognizes that retail media is critical within the modern marketing mix and is committed to a future where advertising and e-commerce thrive to create an improved shopping experience for its members. Early adopters to BJ’s Media Edge who have activated a campaign on the Microsoft PromoteIQ platform have seen a return on media investments.
