During a thought-provoking interview with Kumi Kasa, host of the Max FM 89.7 Morning Show, tech evangelist Dr Albert Hagan shared a powerful insight on the Tech Tips segment: “WhatsApp Status is the new gold mine.”
He explained that what many people see as just a space for photos, quotes, or updates has become one of the most powerful marketing tools of our time. “Millions of people view statuses daily. That’s free visibility, free advertising, and a direct connection to your network,” Dr Hagan emphasised.
According to him, smart entrepreneurs, creators, and professionals are already turning their WhatsApp statuses into business hubs — showcasing products, sharing testimonials, and building trust organically. “If you’re not using your WhatsApp Status strategically,” he said, “you’re missing out on a digital treasure right in your pocket.”
Listeners were inspired to rethink how they use social media, realising that opportunity often hides in the tools we use every day.
