WhatsApp selling

Catalogue cards and reply scripts for WhatsApp Business desks that sell without chaos.

How it works

Card flow for WhatsApp desks

WhatsApp selling here is a card kit plus reply scripts, not a free-for-all inbox. We map SKUs to cards, then train the supplier on calm answers.

Kids and family ranges get age-band cues on the card so parents dont have to dig. Office and homeware cards carry pack and lead-time honesty.

Every card links back to a supplier shortlist and a fulfilment note, so the chat never invents a promise the warehouse cant keep.

Who it’s for

Teams that sell best in chat

  • Family and homeware sellers whose buyers live in chat.
  • B2B light desks that take reorders on WhatsApp before a portal exists.
  • Regional teams covering Pretoria and Johannesburg with one shared kit.

Starter suppliers on this path: Kids & Family Range, Office Supplies Bay, Home & Living Desk.

SA notes

SA conditions inside WhatsApp sales

WhatsApp is how a lot of SA retail still closes. We write cards that feel local, not imported template spam.

Power cuts means delayed replies. Scripts include a short power-window note so buyers arent left hanging without context.

Gauteng desks often share one number across two people. Card kits keep both on the same story.

Set the desk before launch

  • Install the WhatsApp card kit from resources.
  • Read age-bands-reduce-returns for kids SKUs.
  • Keep courier-class notes beside the inbox.
  • Log MOQs if wholesale creeps into chat.
  • Escalate messy briefs to our contact form by email.

Failure modes

Where chat sales usually slip

  • Sending price without a lead-time line.
  • Using one blurry photo for six SKUs.
  • Ignoring age bands on kids cards.
  • Promising coastal next-day from a Gauteng-only stock note.

Next step

Send your WhatsApp setup notes

Share your shortlist notes through the contact form so the WhatsApp card kit can be matched to the right supplier mix. If your team works across Pretoria and Johannesburg, ask a regional desk to review shared-number handoffs, email escalations, and stock wording before chats go live.
