S14 E5: How AI Is Rewriting the Rules of Ecom Marketing (with Liam Millward, Co-Founder and CEO of Instant)
Manage episode 516311666 series 3373337
AI isn’t coming, it’s already here. And if it’s not driving 25% of your brand’s revenue, you’re already behind.
Nik sits down with Liam Millward, founder and CEO of Instant, the platform powering the next generation of AI-driven email and retention marketing. Liam started Instant at 17, went head-to-head with Shopify, and pivoted into a billion-dollar problem: brands wasting time on email marketing that barely moves the needle.
Now, Instant’s AI writes, designs, and personalizes every email—no two shoppers ever get the same message twice. Liam breaks down how Instant became one of the fastest-growing AI tools in eCommerce, the difference between generative and agentic AI, and why most brands are still treating AI like a toy instead of a team member.
If you’re a founder, marketer, or operator trying to figure out where AI actually fits in your business, this is your roadmap.

Copy, products, and offers that adapt to your shopper’s behavior in real time.
