Why this swipe file matters (short)
-
Real Nigerian attention is different — WhatsApp, Facebook and Telegram dominate local reach.
-
Copy that works in Lagos or Kano must be local, simple and action-driven.
-
Use platforms that already have huge reach — for example, 7hubent Tech claims a daily audience in the hundreds of thousands, making free promotion possible for small businesses. (Lagos Wiki)
How to use this guide (one line)
Follow the numbered steps below — each step gives copy examples, why they work, and how to adapt them to your product or service.
Step-by-Step Swipe File (do these in order)
1) Start with a magnetic headline (3 formats + examples)
Why: Headline gets the click or the Status view. Short + local = better.
-
Problem → Promise:
Example: “Tired of empty tables? Fill 20 seats this weekend — Lagos kitchen guide.”
Why it works: Addresses pain, gives quick benefit. -
Numbers + Local Hook:
Example: “₦5,000 Side Hustle: How Chin-Chin Sellers in Lekki Make ₦100k/month.”
Why: Specific numbers build trust and curiosity. -
Question + Urgency:
Example: “Want FREE Lagos market exposure today? See how.”
Why: Questions invite a yes/no mental answer and push action.
Tip: Rotate three headlines and test which one gets more clicks/views — write them like WhatsApp Status captions or social posts.
2) WhatsApp Status / WhatsApp TV scripts (short + repeatable)
Why: WhatsApp Status and WhatsApp TV channels (like 7hubent) deliver huge daily views for low cost. Use short scripts easy to forward. (Lagos Wiki)
-
Template A — Product Drop (10–20 words):
“Fresh stock: Handmade Ankara bags — ₦6,500. Order now: Reply ‘BAG’ + name.”
Use: Send as image caption or status. -
Template B — Limited Offer:
“Today only — Buy 2 get 1 free. DM to claim. Lagos delivery.”
Use: Works in broadcast lists and groups. -
Template C — Social Proof:
“Just sold 15 in 3 hours. Next batch ready — order now (Igbo market customers love these).”
Use: Builds trust via numbers.
Real life example: A small catering business posted “20 slots left — weekend party menu ₦20,000” to a 7hubent group and got full bookings in 48 hours. That’s the power of targeted, short WhatsApp copy. (Lagos Wiki)
3) Facebook + Instagram ad caption formulas
Why: Use them when you want richer visuals or to retarget people who saw your WhatsApp status.
-
Attention (1 line) → Benefit (1 line) → CTA (1 line):
Example: “Tired of slow sales? Sell faster with our instant product photos — Book a shoot (₦3,000). DM ‘PHOTO’.” -
Before → After → How:
Example: “Before: Low engagement. After: 5× views in 7 days. How: Local-first captions + WhatsApp Status.”
Tip: Keep CTAs local — “DM”, “Send WA”, “Reply ‘BUY’” work better than long contact forms for many Nigerian audiences.
4) Email subject lines & first sentence (for existing customers)
Why: Emails reach customers who already trust you — subject line must feel personal.
-
Subject: “Quick question, [Name] — about your last order”
First line: “Hey [Name], thanks again — quick deal for repeat customers only.” -
Subject: “VIP Early Access: New stock for Lagos customers”
First line: “We saved the first 10 pieces for people who order before 6pm.”
Real life tip: Use simple personalization (first name, city) to increase opens. For low-tech audiences, include WhatsApp contact in the body.
5) Landing copy + product bullet proof (short trust points)
Why: When a customer clicks, they decide in 7–12 seconds. Use clear bullets, price, delivery, refund.
-
Hero line: “Quality Ankara bags made in Lagos — ₦6,500.”
-
Bullets:
-
Ready to ship in 24 hours.
-
Pay on delivery for Lagos.
-
2-day replacement policy.
-
-
CTA: “Send WA: +234XXXXXXXXXX or click to join group.”
Add social proof line: “Seen today on 7hubent WhatsApp TV (980k daily viewers claimed).” (Nairaland)
6) Short video script for WhatsApp / Reels (6–15 seconds)
Why: Video gets higher engagement. Keep scripts simple.
-
0–2s: Hook (show product or result).
-
2–8s: One fast benefit (e.g., “stain-proof, lasts 2 years”).
-
8–12s: Social proof/CTA: “Order via WhatsApp +2349077131487.”
Record on phone, add bold text overlay, and post to status and 7hubent channels.
7) Daily posting calendar (repeatable)
Why: Consistency wins attention.
-
Mon: Product spotlight + price.
-
Tue: Customer story (photo or quote).
-
Wed: Limited offer.
-
Thu: How-to or behind the scenes.
-
Fri: Testimonial + CTA.
-
Sat: Urgency post (limited stock).
-
Sun: Soft sell — value post (tips).
Use the same copy voice across all channels so your brand is familiar.
8) How to get free promotion with 7hubent (practical steps)

9) Test, measure and iterate (what to track)
Why: Copy only wins when you measure.
-
Track: replies (WA), clicks, orders, and shares.
-
Metric to love: reply rate (how many people send the CTA word).
-
Change one variable at a time: price, headline, or CTA.
Example: If “Reply ‘BUY’” gets 10% reply rate but “DM ‘ORDER’” gets 6%, keep the first.
10) Local language & cultural tweaks
Why: Hinge copy on local idioms for trust.
-
Use simple Pidgin phrases for casual products: “No dulling, order fast!”
-
Use formal English for corporate services: “Book a consultation.”
-
Use market names (e.g., “Idumota”) to target local buyers.
