WhatsApp is one of the most important instant messaging platforms in the world. More than 2 billion users around the globe interact with their colleagues, families, and even their favorite brands through this app.
In fact, more people choose this channel because it allows for a greater sense of proximity than other platforms, and because it gives the user a feeling of control over interactions and purchasing decisions. It's personal and efficient, but not as invasive as phone calls can be.
3 reasons to automate WhatsApp Business
If you’re considering implementing WhatsApp as a customer service channel, or if you already have it and want to get the most out of it, we’ll tell you why it can be a powerful ally for your company and how to achieve better results.
1. A good omnichannel strategy will always get you ahead
Imagine your physical store could have thousands of branches conveniently located close to all your users. It sounds great, right? Messaging channels do something very similar: they get you exactly where your customers are. Integrating different communication channels into your strategy is essential for connecting with your clients in a natural and empathetic way.
2. It's an excellent channel for sending personalized content
WhatsApp Business is ideal for sending proactive messages and notifications that people opt in to receive. You can share personalized content automatically to increase interest and grab potential customers’ attention. You can also communicate with your current customers by informing them of their order status, delivery dates, or by sending them reminders.
3. Your customers love it!
There’s no better reason than that: everyone uses WhatsApp. Users are familiar with this channel and feel comfortable using it. It's also unlikely that your customers will ignore a message you send through this platform, so the open rate may be higher than in other channels.

Our platform is simple, intuitive, and 100% code free! You can design the experience in a few clicks, without the need for a technical team to set up and update the bot.
