: Background of the study
Affiliate marketing initiatives have become an essential strategy for driving online customer acquisition in the competitive beauty industry. In Kano, beauty brands are leveraging affiliate networks to tap into diverse audiences by partnering with influencers, bloggers, and content creators. These collaborations help extend the brand’s digital footprint and drive customer acquisition by generating targeted traffic and enhancing credibility (Okeke, 2023). Comparative studies reveal that different affiliate approaches yield varying levels of success, influenced by factors such as commission structures, partner reputation, and content quality (Adejumo, 2024). This study compares multiple affiliate marketing initiatives to determine their effectiveness in attracting new customers for a beauty brand in Kano. By analyzing quantitative data such as referral traffic, conversion rates, and cost per acquisition, along with qualitative assessments of affiliate content, the research aims to identify best practices that maximize customer acquisition. The insights provided will contribute to the development of more effective affiliate marketing strategies that not only drive sales but also enhance long-term brand loyalty (Ibrahim, 2025).
Statement of the problem
Beauty brands in Kano face challenges in optimizing affiliate marketing initiatives to drive consistent online customer acquisition. Inconsistencies in affiliate performance and difficulties in tracking conversion metrics result in uncertain outcomes (Chinwe, 2023). The variability in partner effectiveness and the lack of standardized evaluation frameworks make it difficult for brands to determine which affiliate strategies yield the best customer acquisition rates. This uncertainty leads to inefficient budget allocation and missed opportunities for growth. Addressing these challenges is critical for establishing a robust affiliate marketing framework that can reliably drive online customer acquisition and support sustainable business growth.
