The study employs the Technology, Organisational, and Environmental (TOE) theory to examine the role of SMEs’ adoption of social media on financial and non-financial marketing performance in Ghana. Data were collected from SMEs in Accra, Ghana. The study tested seven hypotheses and two moderators. A total of 452 usable sample size were analyzed using structural equation modelling (SEM). The outcome reveals a positive and significant relationship between social media adoption and SMEs' financial and non-financial performance in Ghana. Additionally, a direct relationship between the TOE and SMEs’ social media adoption was confirmed. Although the generalizability of this study is limited due to a single country study, it is still relevant in contributing to a better understanding of social media adoption literature among SMEs, especially from a developing country context. This study is part of the few studies that have used the Technology, Organisational, and Environmental theory to understand social media adoption and marketing performance in the context of an emerging country.
