WhatsApp Campaigns

Once a business number is linked, you can send approved WhatsApp templates to whole contact segments — site-visit invites, project launches, follow-up nudges — and field the replies in the Inbox. WhatsApp campaigns consistently out-pull email on opens and replies, which is why most teams link a number in the first place.

What You Need in Place

RequirementWhere it's set up
A connected WhatsApp sender (WABA / Cloud API number)Link a WhatsApp Business Number
At least one Meta-approved templateWhatsApp Templates in the Content Library
An audience — lists, tags, or filtersCampaign Audience
Someone to field the repliesOmnichannel Inbox, or an AI agent on the number
Templates are not optional

Meta only allows business-initiated messages that use an approved template. Free-form messages are limited to the 24-hour window after a customer's last reply — a campaign always starts from a template.

The Short Version

  1. Growth → Campaigns → New Campaign, choose WhatsApp.
  2. Pick the sender number and the approved template (optionally pair it with a personalised microsite per recipient).
  3. Select the audience, schedule, review, and publish.
  4. Watch delivery and replies in Stats, and work the replies from the Inbox.

The full walkthrough — template variables, microsites, scheduling, and stats — is in Reach Customers on WhatsApp.

Replies Are the Point

A WhatsApp campaign generates conversations, not just opens. Decide before sending who answers: route replies to the team via the Inbox, or attach an AI agent to qualify and hand off automatically.

Troubleshooting

Campaign sent but deliveries are poorCheck the number's quality rating in Meta Business Manager; a low rating throttles delivery.
