What you can automate today

Redbird gives your team ready-to-run workflows — just connect your accounts and go.

Enrich campaign performance data with retail sales velocity and market share metrics

Automatically pull NielsenIQ retail sales data for advertised SKUs and append it to Google Ads campaign reports. Match product-level ad spend to actual store performance, distribution gains, and category share shifts. Surface which campaigns are driving measurable retail velocity, not just clicks.

Trigger bid adjustments when NielsenIQ detects out-of-stock or low distribution alerts

Monitor NielsenIQ distribution and inventory metrics, then automatically pause or reduce Google Ads budgets for SKUs with low ACV or stockout issues. Prevent wasted ad spend on products consumers can't find in-store. Resume campaigns when distribution recovers above your threshold.

Build weekly reports comparing Google Ads spend to NielsenIQ sales lift by brand and category

Automatically generate reports that layer Google Ads campaign investment against NielsenIQ measured sales, market share change, and promotional lift. Break down performance by geography, retailer, and product tier. Deliver a unified view of digital spend efficiency tied to real-world outcomes.

Alert marketing teams when high ad spend doesn't correlate with NielsenIQ sales movement

Compare Google Ads impression share and spend trends to NielsenIQ sales velocity and market share data. Trigger alerts when significant budget increases don't produce measurable retail lift within your expected lag window. Flag campaigns for creative refresh or audience adjustments.

Sync Google Ads conversion events with NielsenIQ purchase panel data for attribution modeling

Match Google Ads click and conversion timestamps to NielsenIQ consumer panel purchase events. Identify which campaigns influence actual buying behavior at shelf level, not just online conversions. Refine attribution models with real household purchase data.

Automatically adjust Google Ads budgets based on NielsenIQ promotional calendar and pricing events

Ingest NielsenIQ promotional effectiveness data and pricing snapshots, then dynamically shift Google Ads budgets to support in-store promotions or competitive price changes. Align digital spend with retail execution windows to maximize synergy between advertising and trade spend.

Built for data-driven teams

Redbird AI understands the relationship between Google Ads campaign structures and NielsenIQ retail measurement hierarchies — from SKU-level sales to geography, retailer, and time-based performance metrics.

Built-in intelligence for advertising and retail measurement data

Redbird maps Google Ads campaign IDs, ad group structures, and product feed attributes to NielsenIQ UPCs, brand hierarchies, category definitions, and retail outlet taxonomies. The platform automatically handles date range alignment, geography normalization, and metric reconciliation between digital spend and physical sales. It recognizes lag effects, promotional periods, and distribution changes — so your team can analyze true incrementality without manual data wrangling.
