Background of the study
Customer data analytics plays a crucial role in enabling targeted advertising by providing insights into consumer behavior and preferences. Online service providers in Kano are increasingly leveraging data analytics to create personalized advertising campaigns that enhance customer engagement and drive conversion (Uche, 2023). This study investigates how the use of customer data analytics informs targeted advertising strategies, focusing on the methods employed to segment audiences and tailor marketing messages. By analyzing user demographics, browsing patterns, and purchase history, service providers can develop highly targeted campaigns that resonate with individual consumers (Ibrahim, 2024). The integration of advanced analytics tools has enabled the extraction of actionable insights, leading to more efficient allocation of advertising budgets and improved campaign performance. However, challenges related to data privacy, accuracy, and integration across platforms persist (Adebayo, 2023). This study employs a mixed-methods approach, combining statistical analysis of campaign performance with qualitative interviews with marketing professionals, to evaluate the impact of customer data analytics on targeted advertising effectiveness. The findings aim to provide practical recommendations for optimizing data-driven advertising strategies in competitive digital markets.
Statement of the problem
Online service providers in Kano face difficulties in harnessing customer data analytics to achieve effective targeted advertising. Despite access to extensive consumer data, challenges such as data privacy concerns, integration issues, and inaccurate segmentation can lead to suboptimal ad performance (Chinwe, 2023). The lack of standardized methods for leveraging analytics in campaign design further complicates efforts to deliver personalized advertising that translates into higher conversion rates (Okeke, 2024). This study aims to address these gaps by investigating how customer data analytics can be optimally utilized to enhance targeted advertising and drive measurable business outcomes.
