(I want to ask what hold them back.)

The first is good, Hadeka; the second should be rewritten as:

'What is the reason that keeps you from using...?' (but this is overly wordy)

Other ways:

'What prevents you from using...'
'Why don't you use...'
'What holds you back from using...'

Hello Hadeka

#1 is ok-ish, but 'stops you from' might sound more natural.

#2 isn't correct. You could try:

'What is the reason for not using the same etc.'

Or:

'Why aren't you using the same marketing strategy in Turkey?'
'What prevents you from using the same marketing strategy in Turkey?'

Hi MrPedantic,

Thanks for your response. I decided to use "What prevents you..."

Sincerely,
