Reckitt Benckiser
Intelligent Growth Through Media Efficiency & Procurement Innovation
Overview
Reckitt transformed traditional TV media buying by introducing a first-of-its-kind tender process, delivering higher reach and significant efficiency gains without increasing budget—proving that innovation in buying strategy can unlock exponential value.
The Challenge
- Highly saturated TV landscape with limited incremental reach
- Pressure to reduce CPRP (Cost Per Rating Point)
- No additional budget allocation possible
- Need to drive greater efficiency from existing media spend
Strategy
We replaced a negotiation-led buying model with a competitive, data-driven procurement system. By standardizing evaluation through CPRP benchmarks, introducing controlled competition among suppliers, and anchoring decisions in performance data, we turned media buying into a measurable efficiency engine.
The Results We Achieved
Strong engagement across mobile & tablet on premium publishers → Efficient global delivery with high engagement for a niche audience
+94% GRP overdelivery achieved
+8.4% increase in campaign reach
Significant CPRP reduction without increasing spend
Transformed buying into a scalable efficiency framework
Key Takeaway
We didn’t optimize buying—we rebuilt the system behind it.
By introducing competitive procurement and performance-based decisioning, Reckitt unlocked hidden value within existing budgets—turning media buying into a scalable growth engine.
