Where does YourBusinessNumber come in?
Important: Each WhatsApp Business account requires a new telephone number.
We provide you with as many numbers as you need with no need for a second handset, SIM cards or expensive phone contracts.
You own the numbers, so when agents join and leave the business, the chats are kept ‘in house’.
Today your agents are using their own personal WhatsApp to deal with your clients. Take back ownership of the conversation.
Could we add WhatsApp as a contact option on our Estate Agent’s website?
Yes. 90% of website traffic is now mobile. Make it easier for your customers to contact you from your website with one click.
We can provide you with your own WhatsApp business short link to put into a one click button on your website. Give it a go below and see how easy it is to reach out.
Can we add WhatsApp Business to our Estate Agent’s Facebook Page?
Absolutely. Increasing numbers of home buyers and sellers are looking to social media platforms to find, research and contact estate agents in their areas. With this in mind, it’s important to keep your contact details up to date.
Facebook can be a major factor in generating new clients as well as keeping in touch with your current clients. Make sure you stand out from the crowd and make a great first impression.
