Background of the Study
Gender-based marketing is a strategy that tailors marketing messages and campaigns to appeal to specific gender groups. It relies on understanding the unique preferences, behaviors, and values of men and women to create more personalized marketing efforts (Meyers-Levy & Loken, 2023).
Airtel Nigeria, one of the leading telecom companies, employs gender-based marketing strategies to increase its reach and foster customer loyalty. In Niger State, where cultural and societal norms influence purchasing decisions, understanding gender dynamics is essential for creating effective marketing campaigns. Airtel’s gender-targeted advertisements and promotions aim to appeal to men and women differently, depending on their needs and communication preferences (Oluwaseyi & Musa, 2024).
This study examines the effectiveness of gender-based marketing strategies employed by Airtel Nigeria in Niger State.
Statement of the Problem
While gender-based marketing can be highly effective, it faces challenges such as reinforcing stereotypes and alienating certain customer segments. In Niger State, where traditional gender roles are strongly ingrained, Airtel faces the challenge of balancing targeted marketing with sensitivity to local cultural norms and avoiding overgeneralization of gender preferences (Eze & Adeyemi, 2023).
This study explores the effectiveness of Airtel’s gender-based marketing strategies and assesses their impact on consumer behavior in Niger State.
Objectives of the Study
- To assess the effectiveness of gender-based marketing strategies employed by Airtel Nigeria in Niger State.
- To evaluate how gender-based marketing influences consumer behavior and brand loyalty in Niger State.
- To propose strategies for improving Airtel Nigeria’s gender-targeted marketing campaigns.
Research Questions
- How effective are Airtel Nigeria’s gender-based marketing strategies in Niger State?
- How do gender-based marketing strategies influence consumer behavior in Niger State?
- What strategies can Airtel Nigeria adopt to improve the effectiveness of gender-based marketing campaigns?
Research Hypotheses
- Gender-based marketing does not significantly affect consumer behavior for Airtel Nigeria in Niger State.

- Societal gender norms do not significantly mediate the relationship between gender-based marketing and consumer behavior.
Scope and Limitations of the Study
This study focuses on gender-based marketing strategies by Airtel Nigeria in Niger State. Limitations include cultural variability in gender roles, varying levels of consumer engagement with targeted marketing, and challenges in measuring the direct impact of gender-based strategies.
