Maximize Your Ad Spend: How AI Transforms Keyword Optimization in Retail Media for CPG Brands

In the ever-evolving world of retail media and shopper marketing, every click, every search, every keyword matters. Platforms like Amazon, Walmart, and Target dominate this landscape, and the competition to capture consumer attention has never been fiercer.

But in the rush to outbid and dominate the keyword game, many brands—especially CPG brands—are missing the real opportunity to outsmart their competition using the latest in AI-powered optimization.

Outsmart, Don’t Outbid: The Key to CPG Success

Let’s face it: the days of mindlessly outbidding competitors for keywords are over. Brands need more than just a bigger budget; they need smarter, more strategic targeting.

For CPG (Consumer Packaged Goods) brands, this means adopting a strategy that doesn’t rely solely on high bids but leverages data-driven insights to make the right decisions.

In the fast-paced world of retail media, to automate is the only way to keep up. Manual keyword research simply doesn’t scale in the vast ecosystem of retail media platforms like Amazon, Walmart, and Target.

These platforms use complex algorithms to rank and sort keywords based on user intent, search behaviors, and even real-time purchase patterns. The modern CPG brand must evolve its approach to advertising, and that evolution comes in the form of AI-driven keyword optimization.

At RMIQ, we’re flipping the script. With our platform, CPG brands no longer have to spend countless hours compiling keyword lists, guessing at which terms will drive the best ROAS.

Instead, our tool creates an ever-evolving keyword pool that’s perfectly tuned to what shoppers are actually searching for, and it does this at lightning speed.

AI-Driven Precision: The RMIQ Advantage in Retail Media for CPG Brands

RMIQ doesn’t just automate keyword generation—it redefines the process entirely.

Take Amazon, for example.

Their algorithm ranks keywords based on a variety of factors: search volume, relevance to the query, historical performance, and conversion rates. Even small shifts in customer behavior can impact keyword rankings in real-time, making traditional methods of keyword selection outdated.

For CPG brands, this creates a massive opportunity. The right keyword can make or break a campaign, especially with the increasingly personalized nature of retail media.

Our platform not only generates highly relevant keywords for your products across all major retail platforms, but it learns from every search, every click, and every conversion.

The result?

A highly targeted and precise pool of keywords that are continuously evolving, adapting, and working for you—24/7.

For example, let’s say you’re running an ad for a new snack product on Walmart.

RMIQ  not only pulls keywords like “healthy snacks” or “best granola bars,” but it goes further, identifying long-tail search terms like “gluten-free snacks for kids” or “low-calorie snacks under $5.”

This continuous learning ensures that these keywords evolve in response to shifting consumer preferences, ultimately driving higher conversion rates and sales growth for your CPG brand.

How AI Powers Retail Media Success on Amazon, Walmart, and Target for CPG Brands

When it comes to retail media giants like Amazon, Walmart, and Target, keywords are ranked and sorted based on algorithms that go far beyond basic search queries.

These platforms rank keywords using a combination of behavioral data, relevance scoring, and conversion metrics. For instance:

• Amazon uses its A9 Algorithm, which ranks keywords based on relevance, conversion rates, and customer behavior.

• Walmart incorporates a hybrid approach, blending traditional search ranking methods with machine learning to deliver search results that are increasingly personalized to individual shoppers.

• Target integrates intention-based algorithms that focus on how likely shoppers are to convert, using vast amounts of customer data to predict which keywords will lead to sales.

For CPG brands, it’s no longer enough to simply bid for high-volume terms.

Success in retail media hinges on understanding how these algorithms rank and sort keywords.

RMIQ automatically adapts your keyword strategy to align with these ever-changing algorithms, ensuring you get the highest possible ROI.
