The model summary as indicated in table 4.4.1.1 above shows that R Square is 0.579; this

implies that 57% of variation in the dependent variable (Organizational market share) were

explained by the Independent variable (Sales promotion) while the remaining 43% is due to other

variables that are not included in the model. This mean that the regression (model formulated) is

useful for making predictions since the value of R2 is close to 1

table above with significance value of 0.000, which is less than p-value of 0.05 (p<0.05) which

means that the Independent variable as a whole can jointly influence the increment in the

Interpretation

The dependent variable as shown in the table 4.4.1.3 was Market share of the organization. This

was used as a yardstick to examine the impact between the two variables (i.e. Sales promotion

and Market share of the organization). The predictors is Sales promotion, as depicted in table

4.4.1.3, it is obvious that there is a direct relationship between Sales promotion and Market

share of the organization.

According to the result in the table above Sales promotion t-test coefficient is 13.919 and the P-

value is 0.000 which is less than 0.05 (i.e. P<0.05). This means that these variables are

statistically significant at 5% significant level.


Decision Rule

As a result of the outcome, the Null Hypothesis (H O1) is rejected on the basis that the p-value is

less 0.05. Hence the alternative hypothesis is accepted, that Sales promotion has a significant

effect on market share of the organization of Kam-Wire Manufacturing, Ilorin Kwara State.

Hence, it explains how significant hypothesis one is to be recommended to market share of the

organization in Kam-Wire Manufacturing, Ilorin Kwara State.

4.5 Discussion of Results

Various study have been conducted on sales promotion on organizational performance but little
has been conducted on this topic, this research study titled “Effect of promotional strategies on
market performance ’’ in Kam-Wire Manufacturing, Ilorin Kwara State in which the X construct
is Sales promotion in which two variables were to demystify from the concept of Sales
promotion which includes Sales promotion and Advertisement while Y construct which is
Organizational performance also consists of two variables which include market share and
service quality. The study tries to examine if organizational performance is affected by Sales
promotion and the study shows a positive relationship between the two variables, this finding can
be likened to the study conduct by Cross (2018), which was carried out in Kaduna to identify the
effects of marketing strategies on organizational performance that production strategy, pricing
strategy, promotion strategy and place strategy, have a direct influence on performance of
Nigerian bottling company. The findings also made know that sales promotion plays an
important role in contributing to the performance of employee in Kam Wire Manufacturing,
Ilorin. Also from information gathered through questionnaires distributed within the staffs of this
organization, this finding also can be traced to the findings of (Isaac & Loretta, 2015), where it
was made known through theor reaesrch that Sales Promotions plays an imporatant role on the
performance of auto mobile industrues in Ghana.

CHAPTER FIVE
SUMMARY OF FINDINGS, CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
5.1 Introduction

This chapter is the final part of this study and it is divided into summary of findings,

conclusions made in the course of this study, recommendations made to the case study, sector,

regulating body and other interested bodies. In addition, this chapter addresses the areas in which

further studies can be conducted.

5.2 Summary of findings

This section presents the summary of the study as related to the set hypotheses; hence, the

following are the summary of the findings.

Hypothesis one states that Sales promotion has no significant effect on market share of

the organization of the organization. However, the null hypothesis was rejected and alternate

accepted which states that sales promotion has a significant effect on market share of the

organization of the organization. Also, the study revealed that Market share has effect on the

market share of the organisation in the past years and this has brought continuous improvement

in the performance of the organization as a result of the adoption of sales promotion. Hence, it

can be stated that Market share does affect organizational market share. This aligns with the

study of Kennedy (2018) where it was revealed that sales promotion has a significant impact on

the market share of the organisation towards the improvement of organizational goals.

Hypothesis two states that Sales promotion has no significant effect on the service quality

of the organization. Hence, the null hypothesis was rejected and alternate accepted. The study

also revealed that serious attention to sales promotion is crucial as its helps in increasing the

service quality of the organization.


Hypothesis three states that Advertisement has no significant effect and on the market

share of the organization. Conversely, the null hypothesis was rejected and alternate accepted.

The result then revealed that Advertisement adopted by Kam Wire manufacturing industry

assists in improving the market share of the organization and also the output of the organization

is often influenced by the Advertisement adopted. In addition, the study revealed that increase in

market share of the organization is as a result of Advertisement adopted. This study also aligns

with the study of Ngari (2015) where it was revealed that one of the most effective sales

promotional tools used in enhancing market share of the organization is Advertisement.

Hypothesis four states there is no significant impact of advertisement on the service

quality of the organization. However, the study rejected the null and accepts the alternate
