Good practices

• Response quickly to a WhtsApp • When you read a message & task has to be

done. Note it in task list in mobile at the same moment.

• Mute groups who have fun stuff so your work is not disturbed

• Only in blackberry there is broadcast list option• Don’t over use WhtsApp

2 Smart phones

• Keep one smart phone for:– Calling– Email– Browsing

• Keep one for WhtsApp• You can configure different smart phone with

your popular number

Key is Database

• Always save mobile number of your contacts may be they are in your WhatsApp automatically

• For the groups you are in search for people who may not mind if you add them.

• Look for all contacts and add them on WhtsApp

Page 21: Marketing Using WhatsApp

• Make different broadcast list like– Brokers – Past Clients– Friends– Relatives

to send targeted contact.

Database unlimited

• I have 7000 people in my address book • But not all are getting WhtsApp as not all

numbers are stored as mobile number• So save all numbers as mobile to get in

WhatsApp• Save all incoming calls (advertise/contacts) so

they can be kept in touch - free
