Background of the study
Sustainable advertising practices integrate environmental and ethical messages into promotional content, influencing consumer behavior by aligning with their values. This study explores how an eco-friendly brand in Abuja, Nigeria, employs sustainable advertising to impact consumer attitudes and purchasing decisions (Okoro, 2023). By highlighting benefits such as reduced environmental impact, sustainable production methods, and corporate responsibility, the brand aims to build trust and encourage ethical consumption. The research examines various advertising channels including social media, online videos, and print media to evaluate how effectively these messages resonate with consumers. Additionally, the study considers the role of transparency and authenticity in sustainable advertising and how these factors affect consumer behavior. Challenges such as greenwashing and message dilution are also analyzed. Using a mixed-method approach, the study provides insights into the mechanisms through which sustainable advertising can drive behavioral change and promote eco-friendly choices (Adeniyi, 2024; Ibrahim, 2025).
Statement of the problem
Although sustainable advertising holds promise for influencing consumer behavior, many eco-friendly brands in Abuja struggle to implement these practices effectively. Inconsistencies in messaging, potential perceptions of greenwashing, and a lack of clear benefits can lead to reduced consumer engagement and lower sales. These challenges undermine the potential of sustainable advertising to drive meaningful behavioral change. This study aims to address these issues by exploring how sustainable advertising practices influence consumer behavior and identifying key factors that contribute to success, thereby offering recommendations for improvement (Okoro, 2023; Adeniyi, 2024).
Objectives of the Study
To explore the impact of sustainable advertising on consumer behavior.
To identify key factors that contribute to effective sustainable advertising.
To recommend strategies for optimizing sustainable advertising practices.
