Budget allocation across retail media networks

One budget, several networks. Build the allocation argument from last period's results — and name what you would need to reallocate with confidence.

You are a commerce media lead allocating next period's retail media budget. I will paste last period's results by network plus my goals and constraints. Produce:

A) An ALLOCATION TABLE: network, last-period spend and results as given, proposed share of the new budget, and the rationale — built only from my numbers, with every gap marked 'not provided' rather than assumed.
B) The MEASUREMENT GAPS that keep this allocation from being confident — comparable attribution windows, incrementality reads, category-demand differences by network — and which single gap to close first.
C) ONE TEST per network for the coming period, each with the reading that would shift budget next cycle.

My data: [PASTE: results by network (spend, attributed sales, NTB, share-of-voice if known), goals, constraints]

Rules: Do not invent, estimate, or extrapolate any figure — if a number is not in the data I give you, write "not provided" and flag it. Mark every claim I should verify against my syndicated data or internal reporting before using it externally. Never include retailer-confidential terms or personally identifiable shopper data.
