Optimize Messaging
Why would people use WhatsApp Business??
Ain’t it a little impersonal?
For a long time, I resisted a switch to the WhatsApp Business App — even though I like many of the features (shortcuts, message templates etc.)
I’d like to think I care more for productivity, than how I would be perceived.?
But in this case, I didn’t want to friends (on WhatsApp) to think I was treating our messages as ‘work’.
Today — with the volume of communication flowing through WhatsApp (both social and professional) — I’ve decided to make the switch. ?
I am thankful to friends who’ve done this long before.? It is precisely because of those who use a business communication tool, but remain incredibly personal — that I am now assured the fear is unfounded. ?
This was an easy life hack to execute.? But one that is no less useful than some of my other initiatives.
I am now aware again — of how much of our lives and businesses revolve around Messaging.? And having an effective system to manage them all — is one way to get better.
One additional (and rather obvious) point to make — WA Communities cannot be archived. This makes it hard to keep unread messages at the top of the chat. They will be ‘stacked under’ all the communities. And — if you like little time to spend on WA, it’s sometimes easy to forget unread message — unless you really scroll.

1 年Hi Melvin, thanks for sharing. I have the same concern too. What made you take the leap in the end, and how do you try to keep it personal? ??
