Benefits of WhatsApp marketing tools
Sending newsletters via widely used messengers such as WhatsApp offers numerous advantages over traditional marketing platforms such as email or SMS. Here are some of the key benefits:
Personal user atmosphere on WhatsApp — perfect for marketing
In contrast to email, WhatsApp's user atmosphere is very informal, as most users communicate with friends and family via WhatsApp. When companies can be reached via WhatsApp and send marketing newsletters to customers, this creates a proximity to the customer that is simply not possible with e-mail newsletters. E-mails are too distant and too impersonal and are therefore not the right way to go as a marketing channel that is primarily intended to influence consumers' emotional buying behavior.
Faster and more direct communication with customers
When you send promotional messages using WhatsApp marketing tools, they are usually read within seconds. The response time is therefore many times shorter than for emails. Companies can also get in touch with their customers directly without them having to download an additional app.
Higher opening and conversion rates of marketing newsletters
Push messages from WhatsApp end up directly on the recipient's lock screen — your WhatsApp newsletters therefore receive maximum attention. Since WhatsApp messages are usually read immediately, the open and click rates for WhatsApp marketing campaigns are higher than for emails. For our customers, the open rate of WhatsApp messages is over 90%, while the opening rate of emails is only around 20%.
No spam folder
Another advantage is that WhatsApp newsletters are guaranteed to reach recipients and are not sorted into the spam folder by the mail provider like many e-mail newsletters. Between personal messages from friends and family, your newsletter will get the attention it deserves.
Personalization and automation
WhatsApp marketing newsletters can be personalized with text modules. For example, they can insert the customer's first name as a text element “[First name]” in the newsletter and thus automatically ensure a personal message. Thanks versatile integrations With other software applications, you can, for example, send personalized offers based on previous buying behavior, remind customers of appointments and service intervals, or send automated birthday greetings.
Higher sales
The excellent opening rate, combined with customer proximity on WhatsApp and the resulting significantly higher conversion rate, leads to significantly increased sales revenues. Various experience reports show that switching from email to WhatsApp marketing tools can significantly contribute to company success.
Increased customer loyalty
If you make sure to offer your customers added value with WhatsApp marketing through a high level of personalization and don't send the newsletter too often, your customers will appreciate the messages as useful information. The probability of recurring purchases is increased and customer loyalty is increased. This increases sales in the long term and increases customer lifetime value.
These benefits make WhatsApp marketing tools an ideal addition to your marketing strategy. Don't miss out on the additional revenue and start using WhatsApp as your preferred channel for your messenger marketing today!
