dc.descriptionFactors that influence consumer preference of television stations by public primary school teachers in Langata division, Nairobien
dc.description.abstractThe urban viewer especially in Nairobi has an abundance of channel choice because of the number of new television stations and proliferation of alternative entertainment sources (such as the internet, video rentals, digital radio and the mobile phone). The viewer decision making process is influenced by both internal and external factors that can be measured by the viewer’s choice of channels, programs and the number of repeat visits or the level of awareness. By measuring the factors that influence viewer’s preferences, television stations can develop marketing strategies that are responsive to customer’s needs and wants thus gaining a competitive advantage.

This study was a cross sectional survey undertaken among the public primary school teachers in Langata Division. A sample size of 56 public primary school teachers was surveyed. A questionnaires was used to collect the data. Data was analyzed using descriptive statistics such as the frequencies, mean and the standard deviations.
