Abstract

The stratified sampling method was used to select 72 small-scale businesses from 10 business types. Data were analyzed using simple percentage and the three hypotheses were tested using chi-square test of statistics. The study revealed that; there is a significant relationship between market segmentation and the maximization of a firm’s competitive advantage; price adjustment does not significantly influence the profitability of small-scale business, and that reactive strategy is negatively related to the success of small-scale business. The study recommendations should proactively be applied to marketing strategy.
