Background of the study
Customer Relationship Management (CRM) data analytics has emerged as a cornerstone of modern marketing strategy, enabling firms to understand consumer behavior and tailor their offerings accordingly. In Abuja, Nigeria, financial services firms are increasingly leveraging CRM analytics to segment customers, predict trends, and develop personalized marketing strategies that drive engagement and revenue (Udeh, 2023). By analyzing vast amounts of customer data, firms can identify patterns and trends that inform decision-making, optimize campaign performance, and improve customer retention. CRM data analytics offers insights into customer preferences and behaviors, providing a robust framework for developing targeted marketing initiatives that align with strategic business objectives. Despite the clear benefits, challenges such as data integration, quality assurance, and the need for skilled analysts often hinder the effective use of CRM analytics (Afolabi, 2024). This study examines the role of CRM data analytics in shaping marketing strategy for a financial services firm in Abuja, evaluating its impact on campaign effectiveness and overall business performance (Nwankwo, 2025).
