Explanation:

The selected answer option is **correct** because ‘CPM’ in the Microsoft Retail Media platform (powered by PromotelQ) stands for **cost per thousand impressions**. This pricing model refers to the cost an advertiser pays for every 1,000 times their ad is shown or served to shoppers. CPM is commonly used for campaigns focused on brand awareness and visibility, as it allows advertisers to pay for the exposure their ad receives rather than the direct actions (such as clicks or conversions) taken by the shopper. This model helps advertisers track how effectively their campaigns are reaching a broad audience, making it ideal for campaigns aiming to increase product awareness and maximize the number of potential customers who see the ad.

Explanation:

The selected answer option is **correct** because ‘Total Sales’ in the Microsoft Retail Media platform (powered by PromotelQ) refers to **total attributed product sales generated from your campaign**.

• Number of times your campaigns are engaged by shoppers

 

Explanation:

The selected answer option is **correct** because ‘Impressions’ in the Microsoft Retail Media platform (powered by PromotelQ) refers to the **number of times your campaigns are shown or served to shoppers**. Impressions track how often an ad is displayed to a potential viewer, regardless of whether the shopper clicks or engages with the ad. It is a key metric used to measure the reach and visibility of a campaign, helping advertisers understand how frequently their ads are being exposed to users. Impressions are typically used to evaluate the overall exposure of a campaign, and while they do not indicate engagement, they provide insight into the potential audience size that has seen the ad at least once.

Explanation:

The selected answer option is **correct** because ‘CPC’ in the Microsoft Retail Media platform (powered by PromotelQ) stands for **the cost for each shopper click made to your campaigns**.
