What to plan before connecting WhatsApp to your business workflow
Define message triggers, consent, ownership and escalation before automating customer communication.
Start with the business event
Good automation begins with a clear event such as a new lead, quotation sent, payment reminder, order update or support request. Avoid automating messages without a defined customer purpose.
Keep a human escalation path
Automation should make routine communication faster while giving customers a clear route to a person when the situation requires judgment.
