How to Craft the Best converting Whatsapp Message Templates for Re-marketing Campaigns

It’s not email, it’s chat so keep it short, will you?

We know brevity can be hard when you want to include everything you think will convince them to buy but your customers should be able to understand what you’re offering, within seconds.

BEFORE they get another distracting notification and you lose them again.

We strongly recommend using no more than 3 lines spaced out – this ensures quick skimming. Dedicate two lines to the hook and value, add a break and then finish with a punchy CTA.

And we mean, punchy. Get your copywriter to work on creating and analysing which CTA’s work for your brand and put in the effort to experiment.

It’s Hey Ria, not Hey ‘there’ – Personalise your messages!

It’s basic brand etiquette to use the basic data you have on a customer (potential or not) like name.

If you’re sending out messages making your customer feel like they’re one among many and you don’t value them, you’ve already lost.

Not just their name, but include the exact product or product category they dropped off from. Build trust and credibility each time you communicate with your customers.

Discount it right & Cause some FOMO

If you’re offering discounts to every customer, it may not be a viable strategy in the long run.

No, let’s be clear- it is NOT a viable strategy.

Just offer them to those who’ve dropped off and in a sequential manner.

Also, add a testimonial or social proof in the introduction and add the discount in the CTA.

To cinch the deal- let them know they have only a short window they can have the discount.

Make them feel like they’re losing out on an excellent deal – if they don’t act fast.

Lastly, make sure the discount is automatically applied at checkout if you’ve offered them one.

Lead them to the checkout page, NOT your PDP.

If your customer has checked your product pages and added them to the cart, they should not be taken back to that page.

What’s the point? That page wasn’t enough to convince them to actually checkout- so best to avoid reminding them or confusing them again.

Instead, take them right to checkout and here we recommend that their details should already be filled in, with products and discounts already added to cart.

Reduce or remove as much resistance or hard work you can from the customer’s end so that they feel positive and single-minded about checking out.

If I can’t see it, why will I buy it?

Whatsapp Business now allows brands to send promotional images – and an image can do what text can’t without trying to explain value.

Most of your target audience will be aspirational so show them how the product will look like in their life.

Or the life they could have with your product.

WhatsApp messages with images are 25% more effective in converting so use them right.

Notice the images that attract your audience- repeat, observe and employ!

3 is the Magic Number

It isn’t enough sending out just one message to your customers – have you heard of a Whatsapp Drip Campaign?

Our signature multi-step campaign can be automated based on timing, replies, and more.

A sequence leverages the power of Whatsapp’s 2 Way Communication and there is so much potential to play here and improve your campaigns with real, immediate feedback.

So observe what replies are coming and what type of users get engaged. Find out things like if they are repeat customers and how often have the bought from your brand.

This way you can scale your conversion rate from 3-4% to 7-8% simply by working on your iterations.

Don’t Treat it Casually

Whatsapp Business requires you to maintain your quality rating – it doesn’t want anything too promotional or spammy to be broadcasted to people.

Employing a thoughtful, engaging Whatsapp Marketing Campaign can be tough to navigate and time-consuming to those who are not well versed.

There are so many variables to consider- what if you had an expert’s help?
