The day before: prepare the rooms

SmartChat checks your calendar and, the day before, sends what your customer should prepare. Your team can start on time.

This is how your customers get on your WhatsApp list.

Your customers sign up themselves: with the QR code on a color card, quote or invoice, on your website or via a link. Your customer only gets your newsletter once they have confirmed in WhatsApp themselves.

  1. 1

    Your customer scans the QR code

    SmartChat creates the code for your landing page. You print it on color cards, quotes and invoices.

  2. 2

    Your customer enters first name and phone number

    On your website, the same small window opens. It asks for nothing more.

Because after the living room, the stairwell, the facade or the garden fence will soon be next. Someone who reads from you regularly still remembers which painter worked so cleanly, and asks you first.

Can I send the winter weeks only to customers with interior jobs?

Yes. Give your contacts tags, for example "Interior" or "Facade". When you write the newsletter, you choose the matching segment, and the message goes only to those contacts.

No. Measuring, quotes and invoices stay in your software. SmartChat takes care of the WhatsApp messages. If your software reports a new job via webhook, SmartChat automatically sends your customer the start date.

Does SmartChat AI tell my customers prices per square meter?

SmartChat AI only gives prices that are on your website or in your uploaded documents. For a paint job, area, surface and preparation work all count, so SmartChat AI mostly invites people to a site measurement. If SmartChat AI cannot answer, the message is passed on to your team in the inbox.
