Here are some of the ways that the WhatsApp Business tool can help businesses:


Improved Communication

WhatsApp Business allows businesses to send and receive messages, photos, and videos with customers, making it easy for them to communicate in real-time. This can help businesses respond to customer queries and concerns quickly and efficiently, leading to improved customer satisfaction.


Automated Messages

With WhatsApp Business, businesses can set up automated messages that can be sent to customers when they are not available. For example, businesses can set up a greeting message that is sent automatically to customers when they message the business outside of working hours.


Business Profile

The tool allows businesses to create a business profile with important information such as the business address, business hours, and website links. This helps customers find businesses and get important information about them quickly and easily.


Catalog Feature

The catalog feature allows businesses to showcase their products and services to customers. The tool allows businesses to add photos, prices, and descriptions of their products, making it easy for customers to browse and shop directly from the app.


WhatsApp Business API

For larger businesses, WhatsApp provides a Business API that allows businesses to integrate WhatsApp with their customer relationship management (CRM) systems. This integration can help businesses streamline their communication and provide personalized customer service at scale.
