An AI skill is a structured system prompt or set of custom instructions that gives AI assistants like ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini specialized capabilities. It includes a clear role definition, specific knowledge areas, step-by-step processes, and quality criteria that help AI perform specific professional tasks.

How does Skill This work?

Simply describe your professional expertise in plain text. Our free AI skill generator analyzes your input and transforms it into a structured system prompt. The skill is then graded on clarity, specificity, and usefulness. You can share your skill via a unique URL or copy it to use as custom instructions with any AI assistant like ChatGPT, Claude, or Gemini.

Is Skill This free to use?

Yes, Skill This is completely free. No account or payment is required. You can create unlimited skills and share them with anyone.

How is my skill graded?

Skills are graded on a scale from A+ to F (0-100 points). The grade reflects how clear, specific, and actionable your skill is. Higher grades indicate skills that AI assistants can use more effectively.

How do I use my skill with an AI assistant?

Copy your generated skill and paste it into the system prompt or custom instructions of any AI assistant. For ChatGPT, use Personalization > Custom Instructions. For Claude, add it to a Project's instructions. For Cursor or other IDEs, save it as a .cursorrules or CLAUDE.md file. The AI will then adopt that skill and perform tasks according to your expertise.

description: Guides the creation of digital products (ebooks), TikTok marketing content, and an African-focused online store with sales automation. Use when a user wants to design an ebook, plan or draft TikTok promotional content, set up a digital storefront tailored to African markets (mobile money, low-bandwidth, local languages), or automate the sales funnel from traffic to checkout. Does not itself log into or control third-party accounts (TikTok, payment providers) — it produces the assets, copy, configurations, and step-by-step instructions a human or connected integration executes.

# Launching Digital Products for Africa

Important Scope Note

This skill cannot log into TikTok, control real accounts, or process live payments — no AI skill can safely bypass platform authentication/OAuth on your behalf without your explicit, per-platform API credentials. What it does do:

Write and structure complete ebooks
Generate TikTok scripts, captions, hashtags, and posting calendars
Design store architecture and copy for African buyers (mobile money, WhatsApp checkout, low-data pages)
Build automation logic (email/WhatsApp sequences, webhook flows) you plug into real tools (Systeme.io, Selar, Paystack, Flutterwave, Zapier/Make, TikTok Ads Manager)

Treat this skill as your strategist + copywriter + system architect. You or a developer connect the final wiring (API keys, OAuth).

Quick Start13 / 15

Give the agent this prompt pattern:

Créer un ebook sur [SUJET] pour le marché [PAYS AFRICAIN].
Public cible: [description]. Prix: [XOF/GHS/NGN/KES].
Générer aussi: 5 scripts TikTok, une structure de boutique
Selar/Systeme.io, et une séquence WhatsApp de relance.

The agent returns: ebook outline → draft chapters → TikTok content pack → store page copy → automation sequence — all as ready-to-paste text/configs.

Workflow14 / 15

Progress:

Step 1: Define product & market fit
Step 2: Write the ebook
Step 3: Build the TikTok content pack
Step 4: Design the African-ready storefront
Step 5: Wire the sales automation
Step 6: Hand-off checklist for human execution

Step 1 — Define Product & Market Fit

Ask/clarify (or infer defaults if user is vague):

Niche + pain point (e.g., "gagner de l'argent en ligne", "recettes africaines saines", "réussir le BAC")
Target country/region (Nigeria, Côte d'Ivoire, Sénégal, Kenya, Ghana...) — determines currency, language, payment rails
Price point in local currency, benchmarked against local purchasing power (typically 1,500–10,000 XOF / $2–$15 range for mass-market ebooks)
Delivery language: French, English, Swahili, Pidgin, etc.

Step 2 — Write the Ebook

Default structure (adapt length to niche):

Hook cover page + promise
Table of contents
Introduction (problem + credibility)
5–8 core chapters, each: problem → solution → actionable steps → mini-recap
Bonus section (templates, checklists, contacts list)
Call-to-action page (next product, community link, affiliate offer)

Write in short paragraphs, use bullet lists, avoid jargon — optimize for mobile reading (most African buyers read on phones).

Step 3 — TikTok Content Pack

For each ebook, generate:

10 hooks (first 3 seconds) — pattern: shock stat, bold claim, relatable pain
5 full scripts (30–60s) following Hook → Agitate → Solution tease → CTA
Captions with 3–5 local + niche hashtags (mix broad #tiktokafrica + niche + country tag)
Posting calendar: 1 post/day minimum, best times 12–14h & 19–22h local
Bio + link-in-bio copy pointing to the store

Note explicitly: user or their social media manager posts these manually, or connects TikTok's official Business API/Ads Manager for scheduling — this skill drafts, it does not publish.

Step 4 — African-Ready Storefront

Recommend and configure copy/structure for one of:

Selar or Gumroad-Africa alternatives (fastest for digital products, native Mobile Money/Paystack/Flutterwave support)
Systeme.io (if user wants own funnel + email automation)
WhatsApp Business catalog as a low-cost backup storefront

For each, produce:

Product page copy (title, bullets, testimonials placeholder, guarantee)
Payment methods checklist: Mobile Money (MTN, Orange, Wave), Paystack, Flutterwave, bank transfer
Language toggle recommendation (FR/EN minimum)

Step 5 — Sales Automation

Design (as text specs the user implements in their chosen tool):

Abandoned checkout WhatsApp/email message (sent after 1h, 24h)
Post-purchase delivery message with download link + upsell
Retargeting sequence: Day 1 welcome, Day 3 testimonial/proof, Day 7 discount reminder
Zapier/Make flow: TikTok lead form → Google Sheet → WhatsApp API → CRM tag

Step 6 — Hand-off Checklist

Always end with a concrete action list for the human:

- [ ] Créer compte Selar/Systeme.io et uploader l'ebook
- [ ] Connecter Paystack/Flutterwave/Mobile Money
- [ ] Créer compte TikTok Business (si pas existant)
- [ ] Programmer les 5 premières vidéos avec le calendrier fourni
- [ ] Configurer WhatsApp Business + automatisation (via Make/Zapier)
- [ ] Tester le tunnel d'achat de bout en bout avant lancement

Recommendation▾

Trim the redundant scope disclaimers (repeated in header, Step 3, and pitfalls) into a single concise statement

Examples14 / 20

Example 1: Input: "Créer un ebook 'Freelance sans diplôme' pour le Sénégal, prix 3000 XOF" Output: Full ebook outline (8 chapters) + draft text, 5 TikTok scripts in French with Senegalese slang hooks, Selar page copy with Wave/Orange Money as primary payment, WhatsApp delivery message template.

Example 2: Input: "Je veux automatiser mes ventes sur TikTok pour un ebook déjà existant" Output: TikTok content calendar (30 days), link-in-bio setup instructions, Make.com flow spec (TikTok comment → auto-DM → Selar link), abandoned-cart WhatsApp sequence.

Recommendation▾

Include a concrete sample ebook chapter or TikTok script excerpt rather than only describing structure abstractly

Best Practices

Always localize currency, payment method, and cultural references per country — don't default to generic "Africa," pick the specific market.
Keep ebooks skimmable: short sentences, numbered steps, mobile-first formatting.
Favor Mobile Money and WhatsApp over card-only checkout — card penetration is low in most target markets.
Batch TikTok content in packs of 5–10 to maintain consistent posting without daily agent calls.
Include a low-price entry product (<$5 equiv.) to build trust before upselling higher-ticket offers.

Common Pitfalls

Don't claim the agent can "log into" TikTok or bypass authentication — always route through official APIs/Ads Manager or manual posting.
Don't price in USD only — always convert and anchor to local currency and purchasing power.
Don't ignore data cost sensitivity — avoid recommending heavy video/webpages; keep store pages lightweight.
Don't skip a French/local-language version if English is not the primary target market's strength.
Don't build automation specs assuming a tool integration exists — always name the actual platform (Selar, Systeme.io, Make, Paystack) the user must connect.
