Background of the study
The Nigerian banking sector has changed tremendously since the introduction of the structural adjustment programme (SAP) on July 1996. Prior to this time, opening new bank were stringent. The central bank of Nigeria (CBN) fixed minimum and maximum lending and interest rates.
Since the new existing banks were put in straight jacket, and they were not mandated by circumstances to be aggressive bank officials sent in their officers, waiting for customers to call. When they called they were subjected to long our delay and had to go through frustrating procedure. Banks never regarded those who needed their service to be wooed and kept.
In the last six years, a new spirit spring up in the world of banking affected the market behavior in the short term and likely to make impact in the middle and long term market entry liberalization raised the number of banks. According to Arnold and Feilmen (2000), banks and non – banks finance company securing more prominent, offering so called specialized services.
The similarity of the traditional service provided by banks resulted in accumulated competition among commercial and merchant banks, the intent signification of such competition place tremendous pressure on the needs for promotional programs. Although banks, in the general were shown in embracing the marketing concept based on the fact that people needed banking services, banks did not sell their deposit, loan, and save keeping services.
Kotler (2003) seems promotion as the activities a company undertaken to communicate its products merit and to persuade potential customer to buy them. This implied that service provided by banks to be efficient, the public must become aware of such service, indeed banking has shifted from traditional sit and wait to the dynamic marketing question, marketing concept being an instrument used to ride over the tidal.
