To start using Pabbly Connect for WhatsApp integration, first, visit the Pabbly Chartflow website. This platform allows you to automate WhatsApp messages efficiently. If you’re new, click on the ‘Sign Up Free’ option to create an account and get 100 free credits every month.

Once you have signed up or logged in, navigate to the Pabbly Shotflow dashboard. This is where you can manage your WhatsApp numbers and set up broadcasts. The first step is to add your WhatsApp number to your Pabbly Shotflow account, which is crucial for sending messages.

2. Creating a Broadcast Message in Pabbly Connect

In this section, we will focus on creating a WhatsApp broadcast message using Pabbly Connect. Click on the ‘Broadcast’ feature in your Pabbly Shotflow account. Understand that a broadcast is not a group message; it sends individual messages to each user, making it feel personal.

  • Click on the ‘Add Broadcast’ button.
  • Select ‘Broadcast Campaign’ as the type.
  • Name your broadcast and select the contact list.

By using Pabbly Connect, you can easily send messages to up to 200,000 contacts with just one click. This feature is especially beneficial for businesses that need to reach a large audience quickly.

3. Uploading Contacts via CSV in Pabbly Connect

Next, you need to upload your contacts to Pabbly Connect. This can be done by creating a CSV file containing your users’ information. Ensure that your CSV file includes the first name, last name, and phone number of each contact.

To upload your CSV file, go to the ‘Contacts’ feature and click on the ‘Add Contacts’ button. You can choose to add contacts manually or in bulk. For bulk uploads, select the CSV file option and drag and drop your file into the designated area.

  • Ensure your CSV file is under 50 MB.
  • You can upload a maximum of 200,000 contacts at once.

After uploading, you can create a contact list from your uploaded contacts, which will be essential for your broadcast message.

4. Personalizing Broadcast Messages with Pabbly Connect

Personalization is key when sending broadcast messages through Pabbly Connect. You can use predefined templates to make your messages more engaging. Click on the ‘Templates’ feature and select or create a new template for your broadcast.

In your template, you can add variables such as the user’s name. For example, you can enter a dollar symbol followed by the variable name to automatically insert the user’s name into the message. This makes the message feel personal and tailored to each recipient.

After setting up the template, you can test the broadcast by sending a test message to yourself. This allows you to verify that the personalization works correctly before sending it to a larger audience.

5. Scheduling Broadcasts in Pabbly Connect

Once your broadcast message is ready, you can use Pabbly Connect to schedule it for later. This feature is particularly useful for planning your communications in advance. Select the ‘Schedule Broadcast’ option and choose a date and time for the message to be sent.

After scheduling, you will see a confirmation that your broadcast is set to go out at the specified time. You can also view the status of your broadcast, including sent, delivered, read, or ignored, directly from the dashboard.

This feature ensures that your messages reach your audience at the optimal time, maximizing engagement and response rates.
