Background of the Study
Viral marketing leverages the rapid spread of information across digital platforms to promote products or services. By creating engaging, shareable content, businesses can amplify brand awareness, foster consumer engagement, and drive sales (Okoro & Adekunle, 2024).
Konga, a prominent e-commerce platform in Nigeria, employs viral marketing strategies to attract customers and boost sales. These campaigns often involve social media challenges, influencer collaborations, and creative advertisements targeting diverse audiences, including those in Jigawa State.
However, the effectiveness of viral marketing in directly influencing sales outcomes remains a subject of debate. While viral campaigns generate significant attention, translating this interest into measurable sales requires a deeper understanding of consumer behavior and engagement metrics (Abubakar & Yusuf, 2023). This study examines the influence of Konga’s viral marketing campaigns on sales performance in Jigawa State.
