Your lists sit in ad exports, store reports and analytics files. Rapio brings them together and turns them into WhatsApp marketing campaigns — from first contact to winning someone back. Build awareness by introducing your business to people who have just found you Drive sales by putting the right offer in front of the right list, at the right time Build loyalty by giving customers who already bought a reason to come back Re-engage by reaching the people who went quiet before they forget you ## Full-funnel marketing messages The same audience, four different reasons to write. ### Build awareness Someone filled in a form, joined a webinar or left their number in your store. They know your name and nothing else. Once they have [opted in](https://getrapio.com/resources/whatsapp-opt-in/) to hear from you on WhatsApp, the first message is the one that decides whether there will be a second. - Introduce what you do, in one message - Send the thing you promised at sign-up - Give new leads a clear next step Thanks for joining the session, Ravi. Here's the 12-minute recap and the setup checklist we promised — everything in one place. 11:04 Open the recap Thanks — watched it already. 11:21 ### Drive sales The offer is ready and the list is sitting in a spreadsheet. Bring the two together: pick the lists, pick the template, and send it the moment it is ready. People who appear on more than one list are messaged once. - Announce a launch, a season or a price change - Send an offer to the list it was made for, not everyone - Start it at the hour your audience actually reads New season is live, Sophie. The two pieces you saved are back in stock, and everything in the collection is 20% off until Sunday. 10:00 See the collection Just ordered, thank you! 10:14 ### Build loyalty The hard part is done — they bought once. Keeping them costs a fraction of finding someone new, and yet retention usually gets left to email, where it goes unread. Your best customers are a list like any other, and they deserve a different message. - Thank people who came back, with something real - Reward the customers who buy most often - Give returning customers early access A year with us today, Lucas — thank you. Here's 25% off your next order. No code needed, it's already on your account. 09:30 Use my discount That is very kind, thank you. 09:38 ### Re-engage They downloaded the app, opened it twice, then nothing. Or they filled a cart and walked away. Notifications are off, email bounces off them. WhatsApp is often the only door still open — and one message is enough to find out whether anyone's home. - Bring back people who went quiet 30, 60 or 90 days ago - Tell them what changed since their last visit - Send the button straight to the screen they left It's been a while, Maya. Three things launched since your last visit — including the one you asked for. Two minutes to catch up. 19:15 Open the app Oh nice, I'll take a look tonight. 19:26 ## Use cases B2B SaaS *|* Drive sales ### Leads that stopped moving Hundreds registered or started a trial, then stopped. Emails go unopened and the calls go unanswered. ### List Webinar registrations Trial started Demo requested ### Campaign One concrete next step: a setup call, a short case study, an extended trial. ### Learning Which lead source actually reads and replies — and where next quarter's budget should go. E-commerce *|* Build loyalty ### One order, then silence The first sale is the expensive one and most customers stop there. Winning them back costs far less. ### List Bought in the last 90 days Bought once, never returned In-store sign-ups ### Campaign A different offer for each list, planned on the timeline rather than improvised. ### Learning Which list comes back, so the next campaign is a decision instead of a guess. Mobile app *|* Re-engage ### Installed, opened twice, gone They haven't deleted the app, they just stopped opening it. Push is off, so the number is the last way in. ### List Inactive 30 days Inactive 60 days Signed up, never used ### Campaign A reason to return for each cohort, with the button opening the app on the right screen. ### Learning Which list still opens your messages, and where another one is still worth sending.
