In this bonus episode of the DTC Podcast, we reconnect with Liam Millward, Co-Founder & CEO of Instant, the retention marketing platform helping top e‑commerce brands turn anonymous traffic into incremental revenue. Instant installs in minutes, identifies up to 40% of previously unknown visitors, and triggers branded email flows through Klaviyo—no manual setup required.

Why DTC listeners should care:

As acquisition costs rise and margins tighten, converting the traffic you’re already paying for is non-negotiable. Liam shares how Instant helps brands like ThirdLove, Truly Beauty, and Karen Kane generate compounding email revenue—often seeing 11–21x ROI in weeks, not months.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

  • How Instant identifies and emails 40% of anonymous visitors
  • What makes Instant AI’s flows more effective (and hands-free)
  • Real-world case studies showing rapid, scalable email revenue growth
  • Why retention teams are using Instant as their co-pilot for Q4 prep
  • What separates brands who see huge value vs. those who don’t
  • If your site gets traffic but your email list isn’t growing fast enough—and your flows aren’t converting as they should—this is the bonus episode to get ahead before Q4.
