1. Creating a WhatsApp Chatbot Using Pabbly Chatflow

To start the integration process, you need to create a WhatsApp chatbot using Pabbly Connect. This chatbot will help collect lead information from potential customers. First, visit the Pabbly Chatflow website and sign in to your account.

Once logged in, navigate to the flow section and click on the ‘Add Flow’ button. Name your flow appropriately, such as ‘WhatsApp Lead Collector.’ Set up the trigger for when a new message is received. This is crucial as it will initiate the workflow every time a user interacts with the bot.

2. Configuring Questions to Collect Lead Information

Next, you will configure the questions that your WhatsApp bot will ask potential leads. This is done in Pabbly Chatflow, where you can set up a series of questions to gather essential information.

• Ask for the user’s full name.
• Request their WhatsApp number.
• Inquire about their email address.
• Ask for their preferred location or city.
• Determine their budget range.
• Ask what type of property they are looking for.

These questions will help you gather comprehensive lead data. Once the questions are set, ensure that each answer is mapped correctly to the corresponding fields in Pabbly Connect.

3. Integrating Pabbly Connect with Zoho CRM

After configuring the WhatsApp bot, the next step is to integrate Pabbly Connect with Zoho CRM. This integration will allow you to automatically add the gathered lead information into your Zoho CRM account.

To set up this integration, go to the Pabbly Connect dashboard and create a new workflow. Select the trigger application as Pabbly Chatflow and choose the event ‘New Message Received.’ Pabbly Connect will provide a webhook URL that you will need to add to your WhatsApp bot configuration.

In the action step, select Zoho CRM as your action application and choose ‘Create Contact’ as the action event. Here, you will map the fields from your WhatsApp bot to the corresponding fields in Zoho CRM, ensuring that all lead information is accurately captured.

4. Testing the Integration

Once you have set up the integration between Pabbly Connect and Zoho CRM, it’s essential to test the workflow to ensure everything is functioning correctly. Send a test message to your WhatsApp bot and interact with it as a potential lead.

After providing the required information, check your Zoho CRM account to see if the new contact has been created successfully. You should see all the details filled in correctly, including the lead source marked as WhatsApp. This confirms that your integration is working as intended.
