Background of the study
Digital media strategies are essential for enhancing stakeholder engagement, particularly for retail brands seeking to foster strong relationships in an increasingly digital marketplace. In Abuja, retail brands leverage various digital channels—including social media, online advertising, and interactive content—to communicate with stakeholders and build lasting connections. Effective digital media strategies facilitate real-time interaction, provide transparent information, and help shape positive stakeholder perceptions (Okeke, 2023). Research has shown that robust digital engagement leads to increased consumer loyalty, improved brand perception, and a competitive edge in the market. However, challenges such as digital noise, inconsistent messaging, and rapidly evolving platforms can undermine these efforts. This study investigates how a retail brand in Abuja employs digital media strategies to engage stakeholders. Through quantitative metrics like engagement rates and qualitative insights from stakeholder interviews, the research aims to identify best practices and key factors that drive successful digital engagement. The goal is to offer actionable recommendations for optimizing digital media tactics to enhance stakeholder relationships and support overall corporate success (Adenuga, 2024; Ibrahim, 2025).
Statement of the problem
Retail brands in Abuja often face difficulties in achieving effective stakeholder engagement through digital media due to inconsistent messaging and digital clutter (Chinwe, 2023). The absence of a unified digital strategy leads to fragmented communication efforts that fail to capture stakeholder interest and trust. This shortfall results in suboptimal engagement levels, which can negatively affect brand reputation and market performance. This study aims to address these issues by examining current digital media strategies and identifying the factors that contribute to successful stakeholder engagement.
