Growth
Fast-growing with dedicated counsellor teams
The E-commerce brand sells textile products directly to end customers through digital channels and primarily receives enquiries via social media and WhatsApp. As demand increased, the business needed a scalable way to manage customer conversations, orders, and payments without relying heavily on paid advertising. While searching for a structured WhatsApp commerce and automation solution, the team discovered Picky Assist.
The challenge
As Haifabz started gaining organic traction, several operational challenges began to slow growth:
-
Disorganized customer conversations
All enquiries came through social media and WhatsApp, which made tracking order status extremely difficult.
-
No structured order management system
The team spent hours manually checking messages to confirm orders, payments, and delivery details.
-
High manual effort for follow-ups
Rechecking customer queries and payment confirmations consumed valuable business time.
-
Limited scalability without Ads
The business wanted organic sales growth but lacked automation to handle higher enquiry volumes efficiently.
