Background of the Study:
Relationship marketing emphasizes long-term engagement, focusing on building trust and emotional connections with consumers. For tech startups in Kaduna, where innovation and customer agility are paramount, relationship marketing can significantly influence consumer behavior. By fostering personalized interactions and providing tailored solutions, tech startups can differentiate themselves in a competitive market (Adeniyi, 2023). Relationship marketing in this sector often involves personalized communication, after-sales support, and continuous engagement through digital platforms. These strategies encourage customers to form deeper bonds with the brand, leading to increased loyalty, higher repeat purchase rates, and positive word-of-mouth referrals. The dynamic nature of tech startups necessitates agile marketing strategies that respond quickly to consumer feedback. This study investigates how relationship marketing initiatives impact consumer behavior in a tech startup environment, examining factors such as customer satisfaction, loyalty, and advocacy. The insights derived will be crucial for startups aiming to build a robust customer base and drive sustainable growth (Ibrahim, 2024).

There is a lack of empirical data linking relationship marketing efforts with changes in purchasing patterns and customer loyalty.

This study seeks to address these issues by providing evidence of the effect of relationship marketing on consumer behavior in tech startups (Chinwe, 2023).
