dc.description.abstractThe study examined the influence of promotion on product wareness in the brewery subsector of the manufacturing industry in Nigeria. The objectives are; to assess the impact of promotion on product awareness in relation to the organization, to determine the degree at which the promotional mix used by the organization helps in achieving organisational objective, to evaluate the effect of company’s promotional activities on the pricing of a company’s brand and to assess the effectiveness of promotion in increasing the sales revenue of the organization.. Survey research design was adopted for this research. Primary data which includes questionnaire was used to elicit information from the members of staff while secondary data encompasses related journal materials, periodicals et.c. Descriptive statistics (percentages) and inferential statistics (multiple regression and t-test were used) were used to analyse the data. The findings show that a 1% shift in promotion will cause a 52.6% shift in product awareness (r=.526**, N=121, P<.01). The study revealed that a 1% shift in promotion will cause 89.6% shift in organizational objectives (r=.896**, N=121, P<.01). Also, 1% shift in promotion will cause 87.4% shift in pricing of organization’s brand/products (r=.874**, N=121, P>.01). These depict that promotion influences pricing of organizations’ product in this study. More so, 1% shift in promotion will cause 49.6% shifts in sales revenue(r=.496**, N=121, P>.01). Based on the findings of this study, it was concluded that promotion is a critical and vital factor that enhances product awareness in the market. Hence, promotion attracts attention particularly when consumers are not very familiar with the products. It was strongly recommended that investments should be made towards research and developments as it becomes extremely necessary to consider the cost/benefits analysis of promotions as past researchers emphasised that promotion is based on meeting customers’ needs within a short term period.
