Amazon Ads, MMA Global and WPP Media Launch Full-Funnel Ad Playbook

Full-Funnel Advertising Playbook: Amazon Ads, MMA Global India and WPP Media have launched a joint marketing guide to help brands connect advertising strategies across consumer awareness, consideration and purchase. Titled From Fragmentation to One View: A Marketer’s Playbook for Full-Funnel Growth, the report aims to help advertisers move beyond disconnected media planning and link campaign investments with measurable business outcomes.

The playbook combines advertiser insights, campaign learnings and practical recommendations to help businesses coordinate brand-building and performance marketing activities. It also examines how retail media can contribute to multiple stages of the customer journey rather than focusing solely on conversions.

Full-Funnel Advertising Playbook Targets Fragmented Marketing Strategies

The report addresses a key challenge facing marketers: advertising campaigns often operate across separate channels, making it difficult to understand how individual investments contribute to overall business performance.

According to a report on the launch, research involving 126 senior marketing decision-makers found that 82% of advertisers had not fully mastered full-funnel execution. The study also identified unified measurement as a major barrier, with 67% of respondents citing it as a challenge.

The findings highlight the need for better coordination across media channels and clearer measurement frameworks that connect brand awareness with sales outcomes. Advertisers are increasingly seeking ways to understand how consumer interactions across digital platforms influence purchasing decisions.

Retail Media Expands Beyond Sales Conversion

The playbook also examines the expanding role of retail media in integrated advertising strategies. Rather than serving only as a conversion channel, retail media can support brand discovery, consideration and purchasing through formats spanning online shopping, video streaming and display advertising.

The report highlights opportunities to connect consumer engagement across different touchpoints and evaluate the combined impact of campaigns. This approach aims to help brands understand how advertising investments contribute to both immediate sales and longer-term brand growth.
