A favorite annual tradition here - the Ad Advance Halloween Party! This was our fourth year of inviting our families to the office for an afternoon of trick-or-treating, Halloween games, and bouncy houses. We had more than 20 kids here all 10 and under! Special shoutout to Kylie Abrahamzon who organized all the fun. We hope you all have a safe & happy Halloween!

More data = improved strategy = better results. Excited to announce we are now fully integrated with the Walmart Marketplace API! This means we can pull in overall business data to make more informed and strategic advertising decisions for our Walmart Connect clients.
Sales data is great, but it only tells part of the story. That’s what most agencies are working with when it comes to advertising on Walmart. And that’s why our Development and Walmart team (shoutout to Andrew & Melissa!) have been working behind the scenes to get integrated with the Walmart Marketplace API. So now, in addition to being a part of the Walmart Connect Partner Network, we are also a certified Walmart Marketplace Solution Provider. This integration allows us to pull in overall business data, like Gross Merchandise Value (GMV), inventory, and product margins. GMV is total sales, so having this data allows us to calculate and track GMV growth, TACoS, and percentage of GMV attributed to ad sales – all crucial indicators in account health and growth. More data = improved strategy = better results. Nice work, team!
