Exclusive Forrester Report on AI in Marketing
A recent Forrester study commissioned by Optimove reveals a striking paradox: while 76% of marketers say they are ready to implement AI, only 18% consider themselves leaders in adoption. Marketers clearly believe in AI’s transformative power, and they expect it to optimize performance, personalize content, and even enable real-time engagement. Yet, adoption lags behind, slowed by organizational silos, tech fragmentation, and fear of risk.
This is where Content Variations Optimization makes the difference—automating content creation, testing, and real-time personalization to help marketers move from readiness to results.
