Imagine this: you open your phone in Alaba, juggle cartons of electronics, parts, or phone accessories, hungry for more customers. You post an ad: “Phones sale, cheap cheap.” Crickets. No replies.

My story: how I went from “nobody sees me” to “calls nonstop”
Back in 2024, I had a small gadget shop in Yaba. My sales were stuck. I posted in some social media pages, but no traction. One day, I stumbled on 7hubent’s WhatsApp groups. I posted a simple ad: “Christmas smartphone flash sale — ₦5,000 off — DM now!” It got decent attention. Then I added AI tricks.
I used ChatGPT to refine my message, add emotional words, a call to action that stirred urgency. Suddenly, that same ad got 45 calls in a day. I sold off 20 phones in 3 days. My shop’s WhatsApp notifications never rested. My customers even began referring it. That’s when I realized: ad copy is not just text; it’s story, emotion, persuasion. AI is your pen, but your voice must run it.
5 AI Tricks Alaba Traders Can Use (2026 edition)
These are step-by-step, practical, ready to apply. Use them to create social media / WhatsApp / group ads that stop scrolls.
Trick | What it does | How to apply (step by step) | Why it works |
---|---|---|---|
1. Audience-Voice Mirroring | AI writes in the tone your people speak | * Step 1: Write 2 lines in your local “market language” (Pidgin, Yoruba, broken English). * Step 2: Prompt ChatGPT: “Rewrite this ad in market Pidgin style, energetic, short sentences.” * Step 3: Use that version. | When your ad sounds like them, they believe it. It lowers guard. |
2. Headline Hook + Emotional Trigger | AI suggests headlines that pull on heart or fear | * Give AI your product + benefits. “I sell phone chargers—fast, durable.” * Ask: “Give me 5 headline options with urgency or curiosity.” * Pick one. | People see “Last chance, Lagos only” and click. |
3. Benefit => Evidence => CTA (Action) | AI structures for persuasion | * Ask AI: “Make ad: benefit + proof (why believe) + call to action.” * Example: “Charge faster, lasts 3x. Used by 200 Alaba traders. DM now for discount.” | Structure helps readers follow your pitch. |
4. Split-Test Variations | AI generates variants to test | * Prompt: “Give me 3 versions of this ad with slight changes.” * Post them across group times or group subsets. * Compare responses. | You see which one wins — you don’t gamble blind. |
5. Hashtag, Emoji & Local Slang Boost | AI sprinkles local flavor & reach elements | * Ask: “Suggest 5 relevant hashtags + emojis for Lagos electronics ad.” * Use: #AlabaDeals #LagosTech #CheapCharger #7hubentGbos etc. * Add 🔥🚀📱 | Makes ad fresh, searchable, casual. |
Let me show sample prompt and result:
Your prompt to AI:
“Write a WhatsApp ad for selling original phone chargers, price ₦4,500, fast delivery in Lagos, using Pidgin tone, include urgency, emoji, and call to action.”Possible AI output:
“📱 Oya Lagos! Original phone charger just ₦4,500 only 🔥 You no wan wait? Fast delivery today Limited stock — once finish, finish! DM me now before they dey sold out.”
That’s crisp. That’s shareable. Now drop it into 7hubent’s relevant groups.
