Is there a way to include distribution of email campaigns to clients who only have Whatsapp?

Hello @SheriC17 ,

 

Once an email has been sent out, a unique, permanent URL is generated for it. This link can be shared through other apps, such as WhatsApp, but there's no inherent tool in our system to specifically target WhatsApp contacts.

Hi William:  I am doing more work outside of Canada where email is simply not used.  WhatsApp is the platform of choice here and I can’t access those people.  Is there anything in the works that will allow that to happen?

Hello @HeatherFergusonMusic ,

 

I'm not really sure I understand the question. Are you asking if we're going to be making something specifically for WhatsApp functionality? If that's the case, then no. Since WA essentially functions like any other messaging app, there's no active developments regarding it at the moment - beyond what's already available for sharing emails' URLs, SMS, etc.
