Background of the study
Customer data analytics has emerged as a transformative approach in enhancing marketing campaign success, especially in the fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG) sector. This study explores how data analytics is used to drive marketing strategies in an FMCG firm in Kaduna, Nigeria. With the exponential growth in data generation, companies are increasingly relying on analytics to derive actionable insights that optimize campaign performance and target customer segments effectively (Lawal, 2023). In the highly competitive FMCG market, understanding consumer behavior and preferences is crucial for designing impactful marketing initiatives. Data analytics offers the ability to track customer interactions, segment markets, and predict trends, thus enabling firms to fine-tune their marketing messages (Abdullahi, 2024). However, the implementation of these analytics strategies is not without challenges. Issues such as data quality, integration complexities, and interpretation errors often limit the full potential of customer insights (Yakubu, 2025). In the context of Kaduna, where technological adoption in FMCG is rapidly evolving, this study examines the role of customer data analytics in driving marketing campaign success, providing a critical evaluation of both its benefits and limitations (Olawale, 2023).
Statement of the problem
Despite the promising benefits of customer data analytics, FMCG firms in Kaduna struggle to harness its full potential for marketing campaign success. The main challenges include difficulties in data integration, inaccurate interpretations, and the inability to translate insights into actionable marketing strategies. This has led to suboptimal campaign performance and a gap between expected and actual outcomes. Furthermore, issues such as limited analytical infrastructure and skills among marketing teams exacerbate these challenges. This study seeks to identify the specific obstacles that hinder effective use of customer data analytics and propose solutions to bridge this gap, thereby enhancing campaign success and overall marketing effectiveness. The research aims to contribute to a more robust understanding of data-driven marketing strategies within the FMCG sector (Yakubu, 2025; Abdullahi, 2024).
