On the promotional aspects, most micro finace banks tends to reach the publics; the best way to reach out to the public are simply through advertising, sales promotion, personal selling, public relations, and direct marketing according to (Czinkota & Ronkainen, 2014). Promotion and advertisment goes on par, as they can not do without each other; creating awareness to the general public on the arrival of such micro finance bank.
On the marketing aspect of it, the micro finance bank with a good and experience marketer who are leaders in their field that can work with less instructions, can do better than the micro finance banks that have less experience marketers to market their products. Another good area that needs to be addressed is the public relationship; port hacourt is a big city, with a lot of competition in the market today.

When the staff or employee of such micro finance banks understands the importance of public relationship, them they can go along way. Another area that needs attention is advertisement; it can be a radio advert, it might be through flier distribution, it might be giving out shirts, caps pen or anything with the name of the micro finance bank on it; this is just to create awareness; since images sticks more than words in the menory.
