While seated courtside during an NBA game, Keke Palmer is offered a new lemon-lime soda called Starry by its mascots when she appears quite thirsty. As she sips the drink, the man she admires materializes, though he appears to be made of liquid. Despite this, he woos Keke by offering her a Starry rose to drink, and she is smitten with him. Their love affair reaches new heights when they end up on the kiss cam, leaving NBA star Tyrese Maxey and others in amazement.  **Drink it straight. **Schweppes is typically used as a mixer for alcoholic beverages, but in a playful nautical-themed advertisement as part of their new brand platform called "[I Like It Like That](https://www.adweek.com/creativity/schweppes-wants-consumers-to-like-it-like-that/)," the company is promoting the idea of consuming it without any added spirits. In the one-minute advertisement, a submarine crew surfaces from the deep and arranges a bar on the deck to unwind and enjoy a drink together. ## Technology elevating the retail industry   **AI-powered campaigns. **The article discusses how top retailers are using [AI-powered campaigns](https://www.retaildive.com/spons/top-retailers-use-ai-powered-campaigns-to-engage-their-most-valuable-custom/643363/) to engage with their most valuable customers. These campaigns are designed to provide personalized shopping experiences and targeted messaging, which can lead to increased customer loyalty and sales. The use of AI allows retailers to gather data and insights on customer behavior, preferences, and purchasing patterns, enabling them to make more informed decisions about how to engage with customers in the future. **Instacart’s B2B Service. **Instacart, the leading grocery delivery platform in the U.S., has launched a B2B service called "[Instacart SaaS](https://www.grocerydive.com/news/instacart-launches-b2b-service/643656/) (Software as a Service) Solutions." The new offering provides retailers with a suite of technology tools that enable them to quickly launch their own online grocery platforms using Instacart's software. The service includes features such as inventory management, payment processing, and fulfillment logistics. The move is part of Instacart's strategy to expand its business beyond consumer-facing grocery delivery and into the broader e-commerce space. ## Experts sharing tips and tricks **Urban consumers. ***Are grocers missing the mark with urban consumers?* This is one of the topics from [Retail Wire’s discussions](https://retailwire.com/discussion/are-grocers-missing-the-mark-with-urban-consumers/).
