Use cases / Announce a Warehouse Sale
A packed warehouse instead of empty aisles - your warehouse sale on WhatsApp
The situation
The big warehouse sale is set: Saturday, tables up, prices tagged, team scheduled. But whether anyone actually shows up comes down to the announcement - and last time, flyers, a newspaper ad, and a single Facebook post brought in just a handful of people. The effort was huge, and the place was still half empty.
How SmartChat solves it
With SmartChat, you invite all your contacts personally - with the address, the hours, and a sneak peek at the best pieces. The invitation lands right on their phone, with a 98% open rate instead of flyers in the recycling bin. One or two days out, you send a quick reminder - and on Saturday, the line is forming before the doors even open.
Set up in 3 steps
- 1
Send the invitation: date, address, highlights - your announcement goes out to all your contacts with one click, ideally with photos from the warehouse.
- 2
Follow up with a reminder: one or two days before the sale, a short second message makes sure Saturday really sticks in people's minds.
- 3
Capture new contacts on site: a QR code at the checkout turns warehouse sale visitors into contacts for your next promotion.

FAQs
How far in advance should I announce the warehouse sale?
About one to two weeks out, so your customers can save the date - then once more shortly before the sale as a reminder. Both messages are written and sent in a few minutes.
Will this also reach people who don't know me yet?
Your messages go to everyone who signed up via double opt-in. You pick up new contacts beforehand through QR codes in your store and on your landing page - and at the warehouse sale itself, right at the checkout.
Is bulk messaging like this even allowed?
Yes, because every contact gave consent via double opt-in beforehand. SmartChat is fully GDPR-compliant - and every recipient can unsubscribe anytime with a short message.
What costs should I expect?
Plans start at 299 euros a month, and your contact list can be as big as you like. Meta bills the actual WhatsApp fees directly - SmartChat adds nothing on top.
