GravenReach Media Sample walk-through
WhatsApp lead follow-up

Every ad enquiry, answered on WhatsApp.

Someone fills in the form on your ad. Within minutes they get a reply on WhatsApp and a planned follow-up, and every Monday one card shows you who booked.

Being built now. The sample is a walk-through on a made-up campaign: Nadai Dance Studio in Anna Nagar, Chennai, advertising a new weekend batch. The studio, its leads and every number here are made up.

01 · A lead lands

Thursday, 7:42 in the evening.

A parent fills in the form on the studio's ad. The front desk has gone home and nobody is watching the phone. Most enquiries that wait until the next morning have already gone cold.

Tap the lead to start the follow-up.

03 · The Monday card

Every Monday, one card.

Kavya is one name on it. The card counts everyone who asked through the ad, and leaves a few of them, picked at random, to your front desk alone, so you can see what the WhatsApp messages add on their own.

Did the messages make the difference?

Twenty-eight people, picked at random as they came in, got no WhatsApp messages. The front desk called them back the way it always had. Setting the two side by side is the fair way to see what the messages add on their own.

With the WhatsApp follow-up: 47 of 265 booked17.7%
Front desk only: 3 of 28 booked10.7%
Too early to say the messages made the difference.

People who got the messages booked more often: about 18 in every 100, against about 11 for the front desk alone. But only 28 people were left to the front desk, and with so few, a gap like this turns up about one time in three by chance, even when the messages change nothing.

Telling a gap this size apart from chance takes roughly 390 people in each group. Until then the comparison keeps running, and each Monday the card says plainly whether it can tell yet.

Sample card. Every count on it comes from a made-up contact list. A real card also shows how fast each person got a reply and who did not turn up; those are left off here because this sample has no measured figures for them.
