Use case
Sales and lead follow-up
Reply to new leads quickly, on the channel they chose, and keep the thread going.
A person who fills in a form, clicks an ad or sends a message is most interested in the first minutes. Messaging lets a sales team reply quickly, share details and book a meeting in the same conversation. What matters is speed, a link to your CRM so nothing is lost, and respect for consent so follow-ups do not turn into spam.
What matters when choosing
- Instant replies or routing when a new lead arrives from a form, an ad or a chat.
- Two-way conversations stored on the CRM record and visible to the whole team.
- Click-to-chat ads and links that open a conversation on WhatsApp, Messenger or Instagram.
- Follow-up sequences that stop as soon as the person replies or opts out.
- Clear ownership, so a lead belongs to the company and not to one salesperson's phone.
Questions to ask providers
- Which CRMs do you integrate with, and is the conversation saved on the contact record?
- Do conversations stay with the company when a salesperson leaves?
- How do follow-ups work once the free reply window on a channel has closed?
Common mistakes
- Salespeople using personal messaging accounts, so history and consent records leave with them.
- Automated sequences that keep sending after the person has replied or said no.
- Messaging people who never opted in, which most channels and many laws forbid.
Typical channels: WhatsApp SMS Email Messenger Instagram Voice Web chat & booking page
