Even Wall Street's biggest firms can't get their people to actually use AI.
LPL Financial — one of the largest financial networks in the country — just revealed their core AI problem to investors: getting 30,000+ advisors to adopt it. Their stock dropped. That's a billion-dollar company admitting what you already know from experience.
The tool means nothing if nobody uses it.
You're not tech-stupid. You're pattern-recognizing. That $200/month sitting unused isn't a you problem — it's a deployment problem. The software companies sell the license. Nobody sells the behavior change.
This is the real AI headwind. Not the technology. The gap between "we bought it" and "we actually use it daily." LPL is learning this the hard way. Smart business owners can learn it cheaper.
Here's the one thing worth doing this week: before you evaluate any AI tool, write down one specific task your team repeats at least five times daily. Just one. That's your starting point. Solve that single task first. ROI shows up fast when the use case is that specific.
The win comes from narrow focus, not broad transformation.
What's the AI tool you bought that quietly died on your team — and looking back, what do you think actually went wrong?
