dc.description.abstractThe deregulation of the Ghanaian telecom sector in 1994 has led to the increase in the number of telecom firms in the country which render identical services. The ever increasing competition in the industry has prompted telecom firms to be determined and ensure satisfaction of customer needs and wants more effectively than their competitors. In other for these telecom firms to succeed in this ever increasing competitive market, they employ a lot of different promotional tools to attract and retain their customers. One of the most commonly used promotional tools is sales promotion which provides incentives to customers or to the distributor channel to stimulate demand for a product. This study is aimed at assessing the role sales promotion play in influencing the consumer buying behaviour of telecom consumers. A non-probability sampling technique was used for the study and the sample was selected from a population of telecom service users resident in the Tema Metropolis. A five point Likert scale questionnaire was used in acquiring the respondent’s information. The questionnaires were analysed with the help of Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) and Microsoft Excel. The study indicated significant influence of sales promotion on consumer buying behaviour. The research consequently recommended that, telecom service providers need to undertake regularly sales promotion activities to ensure constant influence on their patrons.en_US
