98%. That’s the average open rate for WhatsApp messages.
Not emails. Not SMS.
WhatsApp.
In a world full of unopened emails and ignored push notifications, WhatsApp is the rare channel where people actually read, react, and respond — often within seconds.
That’s why the smartest brands are embracing WhatsApp marketing automation — not just as a support channel, but as their primary engagement and sales engine.
WhatsApp-First: A Shift in Marketing Strategy
Your audience isn’t in their inbox anymore. They’re on WhatsApp — chatting with friends, family, and yes, businesses.
That’s what makes it powerful.
WhatsApp-first means you lead the customer journey from chat, not email. From personalized messages, not generic ads.
It’s a shift from broadcasting to real-time conversation — and it’s working.
The Power of WhatsApp Automation
Manual replies don’t scale. One-off messages don’t convert.
But automation on WhatsApp? That’s where the magic happens.
With the right stack, you can:
-
Build Conversational Flows
Answer questions, qualify leads, and guide users — without a human. -
Send Broadcast Campaigns
Reach thousands with dynamic offers, images, and CTAs. -
Segment Your Audience
Target based on CRM tags, abandoned carts, past purchases, or location.

From Cart to Conversion: WhatsApp Automation in Action

Let’s say a shopper browses your fashion store and adds a denim jacket to their cart, then leaves.
Here’s what your Appgain-powered workflow can do:
-
Trigger: Abandoned cart after 20 minutes
-
Message (WhatsApp):
“Still thinking about that denim jacket? Here’s 15% off – valid for the next 3 hours.” -
Action: If no reply in 24h, follow up with low-stock urgency.
This isn’t just messaging — it’s sales automation that feels human.

How It Looks in Action
Imagine this:
A customer opens WhatsApp and finds a rich, branded message with a special offer — complete with image, CTA button, and reply options.
Behind the scenes, your flow tracks who clicked, who bought, and who needs a reminder.
Overlay this with automation icons and stats like:
“WhatsApp Automation = 98% Open Rate”
That’s not just marketing. That’s precision.
