Personalised Call to Action Deep Links in Each Ad

Instead of putting the common WhatsApp link as Call to Action for all add we can put personalised link against each property , for that we can make use of WhatsApp API Link Constructor and Bitly

Advantages of personalise call to action link helps users to land the exact property they have seen in the Ad, suppose “Semi Detached” is the property customer is interested then on clicking the personalised link we can launch the user into the correct property rather than asking the user again to select the property they are interested.

Building Personalised Links

If you have 5 running projects then create 5 personalised link for each project , for example “Semi Detached” & “Double Storey Terrence”

https://api.whatsapp.com/send?phone=605804844&text=Please%20send%20details%20of%20Sin%20Hee%20Yang%20project

In the above link you can see we have added %20 for replacing space between the word , the actual text was “Please send details of Semi Detached project” and we have replaced all space with %20 so that the link will not break when user clicks on it. The space replaced sentence will look like Please%20send%20details%20of%20Semi%20Detached%20project

Convert the Long URL Into Shorten URL

Now convert the above personalised link to shorten URL using Bitly and include the shorten URL in the Facebook / SMS/ Social Media Ads

Now, when a user seen the Ad and Clicks on the link it will automatically open the WhatsApp in their Desktop / Mobile with the pre-filled text which we put while creating the URL , here “Please send details of Semi Detached project” is the text we have put.

✅ We have successfully learned how to create a personalised deep links using WhatsApp URL Constructor & Bitly

Configuring the Answer Bot

Now we have to create categories, intent, question variations and answer in order to engage the users who clicks on the Facebook Ad URL’s

Before we start with smart replies , lets create the required categories and tags in Social CRM and a Sequence

Categories helps to identify the users who are interested in different projects , here we have created category for each each project as below;

Semi Detached
Double Storey Terrence

Using the categories you can send mass messages to the users who are interested in a specific project. You can also view how many leads collected from Facebook who are interested in different properties.

Tag helps to flag the user while they go through various stages of the sales process as below, you can manually add or remove tags in Social CRM or can set Smart Replies to automatically add or remove tag based on certain

New Lead
Contacted
Gallery Visited
Negotiations
Site Visited
Appointment Requested
Deal Closed

Using tag you can easily filter the users who have completed different stages of the sales process , like those who have done with the “Site Visited” which helps you to send personalised messages using broadcaster or can keep the track in Social CRM

Create A Sequence

Sequence helps to send series of messages to the users which are relevant to their enquiry , here if a user enquired about the “Semi Detached” project then create a sequence which contains certain informations about the project like

Gallery Visit
Testimonial
Offer

Right message at the right time will increase the sales closure chances by 50% so carefully draft your message here

We have just created 3 messages in a sequence which will send messages as shown here;

Name	Time	Message
Gallery Visit	2 Days from the enquiry date	Dear {{name}} Do you have any update for the project Semi Detached? We offer free pickup and drop to visit our Gallery , please reply with “Appointment Semi Detached” or click the link
Testimonial	2 days after the last message i.e 4th day from the enquiry date	Dear {{name}} Semi Detached is a great place to live with all amenities at affordable price, watch what our existing owners are saying about the property
Offer	3 days after the last message i.e 7th day from the enquiry date	Dear {{name}} We have an amazing offer for first 10 bookings ! Do you wish to schedule a free site visit ? Click the link or reply “site visit Semi Detached” to fix an appointment !

While creating welcome message in the smart reply we need to create an action so that the user will get auto subscribed to the Sequence which we crated , we will explain this later

Training Smart Replies

We have now reached our last and important step to train the answer bot in order to handle the users enquires effectively , lets explore

Creating Category in Smart Replies

We have to create category in smart replies in order to segregate the projects , so create a new category “Semi Detached”

Adding Intents to the Category

Now we need to add intents to each category so that the user gets the best answer , add following intent to the Category “Semi Detached”

Semi Detached

Adding Question & Answers

We have to add more question variations which users are likely to ask, first lets segregate the questions as topic below ;

Semi Detached (Welcome)
Location
Developer
Price
Layout
Amenities
Interior
Exterior
Appointment
Call Us
Offers

Adding Question Variations

Now lets add question variation for each questions since one question can be asked in different way by the users;

First we need to welcome the user with a reply when they send a message to your WhatsApp number after clicking the URL in the FB Ad, so we need to configure the reply for the question ;

“Please send details of Semi Detached project”

The very first step in the smart replies is to create a category in order to organise your projects , here we are going to create category for the project “Semi Detached” so just give the same name to the category

Question Variation

Semi Detached
Please send details of Semi Detached project
Send project details of Semi Detached
Project details of Semi Detached

Like for getting the price of the property type “price“ and send as reply or simply type your query in detail

Smart Action

Smart Action is one of the most useful module of the smart reply , here we need to create following actions against the welcome question which so that system will do the following actions automatically

Subscribing the user to a Sequence which we have created so that system sends automatic followup messages based on the intervals set by you.

Add A Tag

This action will automatically tag which helps to identifies the user later, since its a new lead we can tag user as “New Lead” when the user visits your gallery you can change the tag from New Lead to “Visited Gallery” manually from the Social CRM

Add Category

This action will automatically add the user into a category in the Social CRM , here in our case its “Semi Detached” category in the social CRM.

Send Email

This action will send an email to the sales team informing about the new lead , you can even send them a WhatsApp message by using “Send Message” action

Now when a new lead sends you a message the system will do the following actions automatically ;

Welcome the User with Welcome Message
Add A Tag “New Lead” to the user
Add User into Category “Semi Detached” in the Social CRM
Subscribe the User into a Sequence Campagin “Semi Detached”
Send an email to the sale team informing the new lead

✅ We have successfully created a welcome bot which sends a welcome message to the user and take actions which are useful for your business.

Adding More Question Variations & Answers

We have just added a question which replies to the user for the first time, in the welcome message we have created few topics like Location, Developer, Price Layout, Amenities etc

We need to add question variations for each topics in order the bot to handle all the user queries which are relevant to your project

Topic	Questions	Answer	Action

One of our executive will contact your shortly for fixing an appointment	Send Email to Sales Agent for fixing the appointment Tag User to “Appointment Requested”

You might have observed that in the question variations we have appended “Semi Detached” with almost all questions , this will help the smart reply to decide the project more accurately when you have similar questions for different projects Event though the user no need to repeat typing the “Semi Detached” with all questions. Smart Replies using context feature the bot knows which project the user is talking to , after the welcome message the bot sets the intent and context to “Semi Detached” so all further questions which are related to the project “Semi Detached”will be answered accordingly.

If the user in between switch the question from one project to another then the existing context & intent will unset and new intent & context will set against the new project.
