Background of the Study
In recent years, digital marketing has revolutionized how brands communicate with consumers. Among the various digital platforms, YouTube has emerged as a dominant force in video advertising due to its massive global audience and engaging content format. With over 2 billion logged-in monthly users, YouTube offers brands an unparalleled opportunity to reach diverse audiences, particularly through video ads that engage viewers and foster brand recall. This has made YouTube a key tool for businesses seeking to increase brand awareness and influence consumer behavior.
Shoprite, a leading retail brand in Nigeria, has embraced YouTube advertising as part of its broader marketing strategy. The company, which operates several branches across Nigeria, including in Yobe State, uses YouTube to promote its products and services, targeting both local consumers and a wider audience through captivating video content. Given YouTube’s popularity in Nigeria, particularly among younger demographics, it has become a significant platform for Shoprite to reach potential customers and enhance brand visibility.
This study will examine the effectiveness of YouTube advertising in raising brand awareness for Shoprite in Yobe State. It will focus on how well YouTube ads capture attention, build recall, and drive customer recognition of Shoprite’s offerings, ultimately influencing consumer perceptions and decision-making.

This study seeks to evaluate how effectively Shoprite’s YouTube advertising influences consumer awareness of the brand in Yobe State, focusing on factors such as viewer engagement, recall, and purchasing intent.
