Watch Step By Step Video Tutorial Below

1. Accessing Pabbly Chatflow for WhatsApp Automation

To start using Pabbly Chatflow for sending event invitations via WhatsApp, first navigate to pabbly.com/chatflow in your browser. This will take you to the Pabbly Chatflow homepage, where you can either log in or sign up for a free account.

Once logged in, you will see a dashboard with various Pabbly applications. Click on the “Access Now” button under Pabbly Chatflow to enter the dashboard. Here, you can connect your WhatsApp number to begin the broadcast process.

2. Creating a Template in Pabbly Chatflow

Before sending invitations, you need a message template in Pabbly Chatflow. Navigate to the templates section where you can view your existing templates. If you’re new, you can create a new template for your event invitation.

Create a new template by clicking on “Add Template”.
Fill in the required fields such as template name and message content.
Make sure to include any images or variables you want to personalize.

Once your template is ready and approved by Meta, you can use it for your WhatsApp broadcasts. This step is crucial as it ensures your messages comply with WhatsApp policies.

3. Setting Up Your WhatsApp Broadcast in Pabbly Chatflow

Now that you have your template ready, it’s time to set up the WhatsApp broadcast. In Pabbly Chatflow, go to the broadcast section where you can see existing broadcasts and their statuses.

Click on the “Add Broadcast” button. You will be prompted to select the broadcast type. Choose “Campaign Broadcast” and give your broadcast a name, such as “New Event Invitation”. Next, select your audience. You can either use existing contacts or import a CSV file with new contacts.

4. Importing Contacts Using CSV in Pabbly Chatflow

If you have contacts stored in a CSV file, Pabbly Chatflow makes it easy to import them. Click on the option to import contacts and select your CSV file. Make sure your CSV is formatted correctly according to Pabbly’s specifications.

Ensure that your CSV contains the required fields like name and phone number.
After uploading, click on the “Import” button to create your contact list.

Once your contacts are imported, you can exclude any contacts you don’t wish to send the invitation to. This feature allows you to refine your audience effectively.

5. Sending Test Messages and Scheduling the Broadcast

Before sending out the broadcast, it’s essential to test your message. In Pabbly Chatflow, you can send a test message to your WhatsApp number. Enter your contact name and phone number, then click on “Send Test Message” to ensure everything looks good.

If the test is successful, you can proceed to schedule your broadcast. Choose whether to send it immediately or at a later date and time. Make sure to select a future date to avoid sending the message right away.

After scheduling, you can view the broadcast statistics to track its performance. This includes metrics like sent, delivered, read, and failed messages.

Conclusion

This tutorial demonstrated how to automate sending event invitations using Pabbly Chatflow. By following these steps, you can efficiently manage your WhatsApp broadcasts and ensure your messages reach your audience effectively.
