Questions
What is a WhatsApp greeting message?
An automatic first reply the WhatsApp Business app sends when a new customer messages you, or when someone returns after 14 days of no messages.
What makes a greeting message work?
Say who you are, welcome them, and ask for the details you need in the same message. A greeting that asks for the service and time turns a vague hello into a booking you can confirm.
How long should a greeting message be?
Two or three short lines. Customers read it on a phone, often in a notification, so lead with the welcome and the one thing you want them to send.
Can I use these messages in Hindi or Telugu?
Yes. Pick the language and the business type; the messages are written naturally in each language, ready to paste.
Are these greeting messages free?
Yes, free to copy and edit with no sign-up. Everything is generated in your browser from hand-written templates.
Can a greeting message reply to what the customer actually asked?
No. It sends the same text to everyone. Kredoo's AI assistant reads the message and replies to it, books appointments and answers prices on the WhatsApp Business API.
