The pace of AI adoption in marketing has accelerated dramatically and with that, so have the challenges. A new study from the University of California, Berkeley, in cooperation with Luxid, shines a light on the five biggest obstacles that hold organizations back from turning AI investments into real business impact.

The findings are clear: while many companies run pilots or experiment with tools, few manage to scale AI successfully across marketing and sales. Why? The barriers are not just technical — they’re organizational, strategic, and cultural.

In the AI Adoption in Manufacturing Marketing — What's Holding Us Back? study, you’ll discover:

  • The five most common challenges companies face when implementing AI in marketing
  • Why many pilots stall before delivering measurable ROI
  • What leaders can do to design AI initiatives with the right scope, time frames, and success metrics
  • How to avoid wasting resources on fragmented tools or “shiny object” experiments
  • The key roles of strategy, alignment, and leadership in AI transformation

The report goes beyond theory, offering practical insights that can help you benchmark your own organization’s readiness. Whether you’re a CMO, marketing ops lead, or innovation stakeholder, it will help you see not just where the market is struggling, but also where early adopters are winning.
