As businesses increasingly rely on digital communication channels to interact with their customers, it has become essential for companies to integrate their Customer Relationship Management (CRM) systems with popular messaging platforms like WhatsApp. Zoho CRM, a leading cloud-based CRM software, allows businesses to manage their customer interactions and sales processes efficiently. In this article, we'll discuss how to integrate Zoho CRM with WhatsApp and leverage the power of both platforms to enhance customer engagement.

If you don't have one already, you can sign up for a WhatsApp Business Account on the WhatsApp Business website. Once you've registered, you'll need to verify your account and create a business profile that includes your business's name, logo, and contact information.

1. Login to your Zoho CRM account.

2. Go to the Settings icon in the top-right corner of the screen and select Marketplace.

3. Create a new lead or contact in Zoho CRM: In your Zoho CRM account, create a new lead or contact. Make sure you enter the person's mobile phone number in the appropriate field.

4. Send a WhatsApp message from SMS Magic: In your SMS Magic account, go to the WhatsApp channel and create a new message. Select the lead or contact you just created in Zoho CRM as the recipient. Compose your message and click Send.

5. Track the conversation in Zoho CRM: Once the lead or contact responds to your WhatsApp message, you can view the conversation in Zoho CRM. SMS Magic will automatically create a new task in Zoho CRM and add the conversation to the task.

 

By following these steps, you can integrate Zoho CRM with WhatsApp using SMS Magic and streamline your customer communication process.
