Background of the Study

Promotional mix strategies involve a combination of tools and techniques used by organizations to communicate with their target audience, build brand awareness, and drive sales. These tools include advertising, sales promotion, personal selling, public relations, and direct marketing (Belch & Belch, 2023). In the banking industry, an effective promotional mix is crucial for attracting customers and maintaining competitiveness.

UBA Plc, one of Nigeria’s leading banks, operates in Taraba State with a focus on delivering innovative banking services. In a region characterized by varying financial literacy levels, UBA’s promotional mix strategies play a key role in educating consumers and promoting its services (Okafor & Hassan, 2024).

This study evaluates the effectiveness of UBA Plc’s promotional mix strategies in Taraba State, analyzing their impact on customer engagement and business performance.
