Use cases / Valentine's Day offers
Full tables on February 14
The situation
Valentine's Day could be one of your strongest nights, but many couples don't decide where to go until the last minute. Only a handful of people see your Instagram post, the poster in your window only reaches whoever happens to walk by - and on February 14, tables sit empty at your place while other spots are turning guests away.
How SmartChat solves it
With SmartChat, you announce your Valentine's Day offer directly to the people who already know you: as a WhatsApp message with a 98% open rate. Your contacts reply with a single word and you log the reservation. A second message a few days before fills the last remaining tables - without spending a cent on ads.
Set up in 3 steps
- 1
Put together your Valentine's Day offer: the menu, the price, and one detail that makes the evening special.
- 2
Send the announcement to all your contacts about two weeks ahead and collect reservations right in the chat.
- 3
A few days before February 14, send a short reminder mentioning the last few open tables as a gentle nudge.

FAQs
How early should I announce my Valentine's Day offer?
About two weeks ahead is a good start, because that's when many couples begin planning. A reminder shortly before February 14 fills the remaining tables.
Can I take reservations through WhatsApp?
Yes, your contacts reply directly to the message and you confirm the table in the chat. All requests flow neatly into your SmartChat inbox.
What does sending to all my contacts cost me?
SmartChat plans start at 299 euros with unlimited contacts. Meta bills the actual WhatsApp fees directly to you - SmartChat adds no markup.
Won't a promotional message like this feel pushy?
Not if it's relevant: your contacts signed up via double opt-in and are happy to get a well-timed idea for Valentine's Day.
