Why 90% of eCommerce Brands Fail at Ads— and How AI Can Fix It

More than 90% of eCommerce brands fail within their first 120 days. While product quality and operations matter, many of these businesses fall short for one simple reason: their marketing doesn’t work.

The majority of founders invest in ads—but without the right tools, most of that budget goes to waste. Let’s unpack what’s going wrong, and how artificial intelligence can turn it around.

The Costly Reality of eCommerce Ads

According to Statista, 43% of digital ad budgets are wasted each year. Why?

• Campaigns are manually set up, leading to inconsistent targeting and creative.

• Key platforms like Shopify, Google, Meta, and CRMs operate in silos.

• There’s no clear feedback loop or forecasting, so decisions are reactive, not strategic.

To make matters worse, Forrester reports that small teams lose more than 12 hours per week managing ad platforms—without seeing results.
