After connecting your Facebook account, select the Facebook page and lead generation form from the drop-down menus. Click on “Save and Send Test Request” to ensure that the connection is successful.
3. Sending WhatsApp Messages Based on Lead Categories
Now that your trigger is set up in Pabbly Connect, it’s time to send personalized WhatsApp messages based on the lead’s chosen category. You will need to add a router action to handle different service categories.
Set up a router by selecting “Router by Pabbly” as your action application. You can create multiple routes based on the services offered. For instance, one route for “Social Media Marketing” and another for “Performance Marketing Ads”.
- Add a filter step for each route based on the selected service.
- If the service is “Social Media Marketing”, send a specific WhatsApp message.
- For “Performance Marketing Ads”, send a different message.
By mapping the lead’s phone number and name in the WhatsApp message template, you can personalize the messages effectively. This ensures that the communication feels direct and relevant to the lead.
4. Finalizing the Integration in Pabbly Connect
To finalize the integration, return to your action step where you will send the WhatsApp messages using Pabbly Connect. Choose “Pabbly Chatflow” as the action application.
In this step, you will need to provide the WhatsApp message template that has been approved by Meta. Map the recipient’s phone number and any variables like the lead’s name into the message body.
- Enter the media URL for any images in the message.
- Click on “Save and Send Test Request” to check if the message is sent successfully.
- Verify the message on WhatsApp to ensure everything works correctly.
Once you have tested and confirmed the messages are sent, your integration is complete. You can now automate WhatsApp communications based on Facebook leads.
