WhatsApp Templates
A WhatsApp message template is approved by Meta, allowing you to start a business-initiated conversation with your customers by sending a template message. You can also use the WhatsApp message template to send a WhatsApp campaign to the target recipients who have already opted-in and allow you to send a marketing message to them.
Your customers' or visitors' replies to your WhatsApp template message are an excellent start to convert the initial message into a two-way communication in which you build a good relationship with them.
Sync your WhatsApp Templates to CINNOX and create your first WhatsApp Campaign for your customers and visitors.
