Background of the study
Influencer public relations (PR) have gained prominence as a powerful tool for boosting brand awareness, especially in the fashion industry. In Abuja, fashion brands are increasingly collaborating with social media influencers to create engaging content that resonates with target audiences. These influencer partnerships help humanize the brand, build authenticity, and extend its reach through trusted voices (Okeke, 2023). This study examines how influencer PR strategies impact brand awareness by analyzing various metrics such as social media engagement, reach, and sentiment analysis. Research shows that when executed effectively, influencer PR can generate substantial buzz and elevate brand visibility in a competitive market (Adenuga, 2024). However, challenges such as inconsistent messaging, partner selection issues, and measurement difficulties can affect outcomes. This inquiry investigates successful influencer PR campaigns and compares them to traditional PR efforts to determine their effectiveness in boosting brand awareness. The study aims to offer actionable recommendations for fashion brands seeking to harness influencer power to enhance market presence and drive consumer engagement (Ibrahim, 2025).
Statement of the problem
Fashion brands in Abuja face challenges in optimizing influencer PR to boost brand awareness effectively. Inconsistent influencer performance, misaligned messaging, and difficulties in measuring campaign impact often result in suboptimal awareness levels (Chinwe, 2023). The lack of standardized evaluation methods for influencer partnerships complicates the ability to determine which strategies are most effective. This uncertainty can lead to inefficient allocation of marketing resources and missed opportunities for market expansion. Addressing these issues is crucial for developing robust influencer PR frameworks that reliably enhance brand visibility and consumer engagement.
