Background of the Study
Business analytics has become a cornerstone of decision-making for organizations seeking to optimize advertising spend. It provides actionable insights through data analysis, enabling digital marketers to allocate resources effectively and maximize return on investment (ROI). Tools like Google Analytics, Tableau, and advanced machine learning algorithms are increasingly employed to measure campaign performance and predict consumer behavior.
In Kaduna State, the rise of digital marketing has made businesses more reliant on data-driven strategies to compete in the online space. Marketers must contend with budget constraints and the need to achieve measurable results, making business analytics a vital tool. According to Okoro and Musa (2023), firms using analytics-driven approaches reported higher campaign efficiencies compared to those relying on intuition or traditional methods. However, challenges such as limited expertise and inadequate infrastructure hinder widespread adoption in the region.
Statement of the Problem
Despite the proven benefits of business analytics in optimizing advertising spend, many digital marketers in Kaduna State face difficulties in leveraging these tools effectively. Common challenges include lack of access to robust data, insufficient technical skills, and resistance to change from traditional marketing methods.
Adebayo and Yusuf (2024) noted that organizations failing to implement analytics lose significant opportunities to improve campaign ROI and streamline advertising costs. This investigation explores the extent to which digital marketers in Kaduna State utilize business analytics to optimize their advertising spend and the barriers they encounter in the process.
