Abstract Abstract:<br/>Egyptian small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in the e-commerce sector face significant <br/>challenges in competing effectively due to limited resources and a rapidly changing digital <br/>landscape. Traditional marketing strategies often fail to keep pace with evolving consumer <br/>preferences and intense competition, hindering the marketing efforts of these businesses. This <br/>research aims to investigate the adoption of AI-powered social listening among Egyptian ecommerce SMEs, identifying the key challenges and opportunities specific to this context. The <br/>objective is to propose a tailored strategy to guide the effective implementation of this <br/>technology, enhancing the marketing strategies of these enterprises.<br/>A mixed-methods approach was employed in this study, combining quantitative data from <br/>surveys with qualitative insights gathered through interviews with SME owners and marketing <br/>managers. The findings revealed a considerable gap between the perceived benefits of AIpowered social listening—such as gaining deeper customer insights and improving brand <br/>reputation—and the challenges faced by SMEs. These challenges include financial constraints, a <br/>lack of expertise, and technological readiness.<br/>Based on the research findings, this study proposes a strategy designed to address the identified <br/>challenges. The strategy aims to guide Egyptian SMEs through the AI adoption process, <br/>unlocking the potential of AI-powered social listening to optimize their marketing strategies and <br/>enable them to thrive in the digital era.<br/>Keywords:<br/>AI-powered social listening, Egyptian SMEs, e-commerce marketing, adoption strategy, <br/>challenges, opportunities.
