In this episode of The Negotiation, host Todd Embley welcomes Colin Jeavons, Founder and CEO of Nomix Group—a forward-thinking holding company reshaping digital commerce through AI, performance marketing, and creator-driven commerce.

Colin is a veteran of the digital space with over 25 years of experience, from the early days of commercial search in the late 1990s to today’s AI-powered shopping revolution. Under his leadership, Nomix Group has driven over $2.5 billion in verified product sales and built an ecosystem spanning five specialized divisions—Shopnomix, Appnomix, Fanomix, Pronomix, and Creatornomix—each tackling different aspects of how consumers discover, evaluate, and buy products online.

Colin recently made waves by predicting that AI will drive a 30 percent surge in digital commerce spending across Western markets by 2027—a bold forecast reflecting fundamental shifts in consumer behavior. This conversation explores what’s driving that transformation, how AI answer engines and agentic shopping are changing the game, and what Western brands should learn from China’s leadership in social commerce, live-streaming, and creator-led shopping on platforms like Douyin, Xiaohongshu, and Taobao Live.

From the “post-advertising” era to the rise of creator economies, Colin offers a comprehensive view of where digital commerce is headed and how brands can prepare for a future where content, community, and AI converge to create “Commerce, Everywhere.”
