The primary goal of strategic maneuvering is to discover how the pragmatic devices have persuasive techniques that are used to gain a competitive advantage and more sales. This study is a contribution to the field of research in the language used in advertising. In this research, the effectiveness of strategic maneuvering hinges on both the figurative language theory and the use of pragmatic devices such as alliteration, allusion, exclusivity and privacy, hyperbole, irony, metaphor, repetition, rhetorical question, and simile. To achieve such aims, a model is developed for the analysis of these pragmatic devices by using figurative language theory in commercial advertisements. It requires a combination of analysis of each of these devices to show how it works successfully to increase consumers’ awareness in the selected advertisements. The results of the study show how there are specific linguistic devices that are used in advertisement more than others to persuade the consumers to buy products and make advertisement more powerful. The findings of analysis verify the hypotheses represented by the process of using strategic maneuvering in the selected advertisements
