What are the problems in WhatsApp customer follow-up?

Whether it is from the customer follow-up stage or from the perspective of conversion cycle, customer attributes, and 2B/2C different types, we found that this is really a huge project. From the customer follow-up stage, there is the distribution of massive personalized content in the early inquiry and clue cleaning and screening, the personalized contact based on customer characteristics during the follow-up process, and the update of stage and label information, as well as the order logistics push sent to customers after the transaction is completed. It is worth noting that much of the content during this period was similar or repetitive, and was distributed solely manually, which was inefficient and error-prone.

On the other hand, from the perspective of conversion cycle, for customers with long links and long cycles, there must be a long process of customer communication and interaction. For example, warm wishes to customers at a specific time point or the phrase "Happy Birthday" when the customer's birthday is approaching will highlight the brand's professionalism and intention; when customers belong to a specific group, such as Mother's Day blessings for mothers and Teacher's Day blessings for teachers, they can add points to the salesperson and the brand in interactive communication and promote customer transaction conversion.

Therefore, if we can do timely follow-up of a large number of customers, reach refined content, automatically update the label stage, and provide customer service notifications, and secondly, perform batch automated operations on the basis of these, we will be able to efficiently empower the company's marketing and sales growth, improve customer experience, and optimize follow-up efficiency.

So, how does SocialEpochWhatsApp marketing automation achieve batch automated distribution of personalized content? Combined with the background functions, let’s find out together:

Single marketing VS real-time marketing VS periodic marketing

Single marketing is a single marketing action combined with customer stage or label settings, and ends after publishing. Such as the first follow-up greeting to the customer.

Real-time marketing is to reach customers in a timely manner when the user stage or label changes, and push the right content to the customer at the right time. For example, push instant order and logistics information to customers who have placed orders.

Cycle marketing is based on a certain time period as a condition and repeatedly performs an operation in a cycle. For example, blessings to customers on their birthdays and Christmas, and greetings to potential customers every Monday morning.

Automatically label and update customer stages based on tasks

Updates to customer stages and recording of specific tags can be done automatically upon completion of a task or after a customer responds. In this way, automated push combined with automated updates at the tag stage can complete the follow-up and screening of massive leads while reducing a large number of repeated communications among personnel, laying the foundation for further refined operations and manual intervention on the back end.

Customer service information notification: Help sales accurately grasp business opportunities

At the end of the task, there are customer service message notification settings. Enterprises can freely choose or turn on this setting, and can also change the frequency of notifications to ensure that it meets the personalized needs of each enterprise/individual. After the customer stage of the task link is updated, instant feedback can be given to each customer service or salesperson, allowing each salesperson to accurately grasp business opportunities.

Personalization of Labels and Stages: Different Enterprises, Different Faces

Finally, for each different industry, product and customer characteristics, there must be different corporate customer characteristics labels and stage classifications. In the backend customer management part, each enterprise can set personalized labels and stages to target customers in different ways and enterprises alike.Thousands of things

Create content SOPs that combine customer journeys

It can be said that content is a stepping stone to promote customer transaction conversion and gradually build a good impression and trust on the salesperson and the brand. How to prevent stepping stones from becoming stumbling blocks? Professionalism, quality, personality, and rhythm are all essential qualities of content. In the customer-owned-channel operations segment, every company can use marketing automation to create a set of mature content SOPs to empower front-line salespeople.
