Can WhatsApp marketing bring leads for a business in India?

Quick answer

Yes. Click-to-WhatsApp ads on Facebook and Instagram start conversations directly, and a WhatsApp button on your website turns visitors into chats. WhatsApp works best for replying fast and following up, using approved message templates and only messaging people who have opted in, as Meta's WhatsApp Business policy requires.

How businesses use WhatsApp for leads

  • Click-to-WhatsApp ads: people tap an ad and start a chat
  • Website buttons: a WhatsApp button on every page
  • QR codes: in shops, clinics and printed materials
  • Follow-up: reminders, quotes and appointment confirmations

Good practice

  1. Use WhatsApp Business or the WhatsApp Business Platform.
  2. Set quick replies and a greeting message.
  3. Reply within minutes during business hours.
  4. Get opt-in before sending marketing messages.
  5. Use approved templates for messages after 24 hours.

Bulk messaging people who haven’t opted in can get your number restricted under the WhatsApp Business Messaging Policy.

Key takeaways

  1. Click-to-WhatsApp ads start conversations
  2. Fast replies convert more leads
  3. Message only people who opted in
