WhatsApp x Daktela

With over 2 billion active users, WhatsApp is the world’s most popular personal messaging app. More and more organisations are now seeing the benefits of using WhatsApp as a new way of communicating with their customers.

For businesses, it provides a cost-effective messaging channel, enabling conversations with your customers in a way that they like. WhatsApp is now becoming a core communication channel for businesses globally.

We are familiar with the benefits of using WhatsApp in our personal lives, but how can a business benefit from using WhatsApp?

To understand this better, we need to examine the differences between Personal WhatsApp, Business WhatsApp and how we can help.

Personal WhatsApp

‍

Device-specific: Personal WhatsApp is tied to one device and associated with a single phone number.
‍
Limited for Business Use: Best suited for personal use or sole traders; not scalable for teams.
‍
No Centralised Access: Only one user can access the account at a time, limiting your ability to manage customer communications efficiently across multiple team members.
‍
Lack of Business Features: Personal WhatsApp does not offer advanced features like automated replies, away messages, or business profile customisation.
‍
Limited Reporting and Insights: Personal WhatsApp lacks detailed metrics or analytics, making it difficult to track performance or measure customer engagement.
‍
Not Built for Growth: As your business grows, using personal WhatsApp becomes impractical due to its limited functionality, lack of multi-user access, and absence of business-specific tools.

Business WhatsApp

‍

Multiple Users: Accessible to everyone within your organisation through a shared account, enabling a team to manage customer communication
‍
Business-Focused Features: Includes features like automated greetings, away messages, and the ability to list important business details like hours of operation, location, and more.
‍
Personalisation: Within one WhatsApp business account you can have up to 25 different numbers, allowing you to provide different numbers for different parts of your business operations. This allows you to provide a local presence or brand-relevant WhatsApp numbers to a range of different customers.
‍
Control and Monitoring: All numbers belong to the business, not the mobile user, so you will always have access to your Business WhatsApp contacts and always be able to control and monitor all communication centrally.
