In recent years, brands have realized that one of the fastest and most effective ways to reach customers is through WhatsApp.
What used to be limited to email or SMS campaigns has now evolved into instant, personalized communication.
By 2025, WhatsApp is no longer just a chat app — it has become a powerful channel for customer relations, sales, and marketing.
According to Meta’s latest data:
📊 2.7 billion people worldwide use WhatsApp,
and 80% of users open messages sent by brands.
That’s 4x higher engagement compared to email.
What is WhatsApp Marketing?
WhatsApp Marketing allows brands to communicate directly with customers via WhatsApp — promoting products, services, or campaigns in a one-to-one, conversational way.
Unlike traditional messaging, it’s built on WhatsApp Business API, offering automation, CRM integration, and advanced personalization features.
👉 Examples include:
- New product launches
- Order status notifications
- Exclusive promo codes
- Feedback collection
- Automated customer support messages
All of these can now be managed through automated WhatsApp flows.
Why Are Brands Turning to WhatsApp?
At Touch Digital, our data shows that WhatsApp dramatically improves conversion performance.
Recent campaign results reveal:
| Metric | ||
|---|---|---|
| Open rate | 25% | 80%+ |
| Response rate | 5% | 45% |
| Conversion rate | 2.3% | 12%+ |
This difference comes from WhatsApp’s personal and conversational nature.
Users perceive emails as “advertising,” but WhatsApp as “communication.”
When managed with the right strategy, WhatsApp becomes a long-term driver of both sales and customer loyalty.
How Should Brands Implement WhatsApp Marketing?
1️⃣ Set Up WhatsApp Business API
Obtain official API access through a verified Business account.
Your number will appear trustworthy, and you’ll gain access to automation and CRM tools.

Connect WhatsApp messages to your CRM to track user behavior.
At Touch Digital, we integrate WhatsApp communications into campaign dashboards for data-driven optimization.

Plan flows such as welcome messages, thank-you notes after purchases, or abandoned cart reminders.
Small, personalized touches lead to big results.
4️⃣ Use Segmentation and Timing
Analyze data to send messages to the right audience at the right time.
Behavior-based messaging reduces spam risk and boosts engagement.
5️⃣ AI-Powered Content Optimization

Touch Digital’s AI-driven message analytics identify which type of message performs best for each customer segment.
💡 Example: A Successful WhatsApp Strategy
An e-commerce brand automatically messages users who abandoned their carts:
“Hey! The items in your cart are still waiting for you 😍
Order today and enjoy an exclusive 10% discount!”
Such messages typically deliver an 18% increase in conversions.
The experience becomes more personal — the brand starts communicating like a human, not a bot.
