WhatsApp & Email Marketing Process We Follow in Food & Beverages sector

1. Audit & Segmentation – We analyze your existing customer database (phone numbers, email IDs, order history) and segment by frequency (daily, weekly, monthly), cuisine preference, and average spend. For example, we tag “vegetarian weekday lunch” vs “non-veg weekend dinner” segments.
2. Content Calendar & Offer Design – We create a 4-week campaign calendar aligned with Indian festivals (Diwali sweets, Holi thalis, Ramadan iftar), weather changes (monsoon soups, summer coolers), and local events (Delhi University fests, corporate office parties). Each message includes a clear CTA and trackable UTM link.
3. Automation Setup & Integration – Using WhatsApp Business API and email marketing platforms (Mailchimp, SendGrid), we connect your CRM or POS system. Triggers include: first order → welcome sequence, abandoned cart → reminder after 1 hour, no order for 30 days → re-engagement offer.
4. A/B Testing & Optimization – We run split tests on subject lines (e.g., “50% off tonight” vs “Your favourite paneer is back”), send times (12 PM vs 7 PM), and media types (video vs static image). After 2 weeks, we double down on winning variants and pause low-performers.
