ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Digital Shelf Insider Podcast by MetricsCart | Season 2, Episode 15
Callie Wilde (E-Commerce Sales Manager at Ruiz Foods) joins Shreshta Joy this week to dive into what the holiday season actually asks of high-velocity frozen CPG brands like El Monterey and Tornados.
Rather than leaning on the reflex to promote harder, Callie makes the case for staying discoverable around the big meal, bidding with discipline when Q4 CPCs spike, and turning a flood of digital shelf metrics into decisions a sales team can actually run with.
