WhatsApp has many great features for you to utilize to your advantage.
But, while the centralized instant messaging freeware has excellent ease of use and seamless cross-platform communication, there’s still one thing it’s missing…
The ability to schedule messages.
This means personalized messages, messaging campaigns with file attachments, or scheduled tasks. If someone who works for you has a birthday drawing near and you want to make sure you don’t forget to acknowledge them, scheduling a personalized message to them is a huge help.
There might be ways to schedule your messages on mobile devices, but the WhatsApp platform effectively-being workarounds do not officially support them. That means limitations, such as incompatibility after updates, de-syncs, etc.
It would be best if you had an extension that works seamlessly with WhatsApp and optimizes your time on the platform, rather than being an inconvenience.
Blueticks is the Ultimate Chrome Extension for WhatsApp
BlueTicks WhatsApp Scheduler is a Google Chrome extension that automates WhatsApp tasks and optimizes productivity, scale, and time. It drastically enhances your WhatsApp experience, adding essential message scheduling features to WhatsApp Web.
The scheduler function is the bread and butter of what BlueTicks is about. The WhatsApp Scheduler feature enables you to schedule messages to a single contact or a group at any time of your choosing. It’s not hard to imagine how much easier this can make your daily business life, especially if you’re in a field where you’re required to contact multiple clients at designated times.
With the business world rapidly shifting to remote work and an ever-increasing multitude of digital processes, it can get hard to keep up with individual clients or people on your team. Here are just a few of the reasons you’d want a message scheduler in today’s work climate:
- You may want to avoid time zone trouble – Scheduling a message for 7 PM might be 3 AM for an important client, depending on where you are.
- You might want to send messages at ideal business times – Maybe you don’t have much luck on Friday afternoons or Mondays and would rather have your timed messages sent during the middle of the week.
- You can get everyone’s birthday and holiday greetings scheduled in one go – It’s challenging to remember everyone’s birthday in a large group, or if you’ve got many clients. Remembering to send someone a message letting them know you’re thinking of them on a holiday or their birthday can mean a lot.
It’s also a great tool if you want to remain in contact with essential persons while you’re away on holiday.
You can schedule the message to either be a one-time or recurring message, setting your messages to recur for many minutes, hours, days, months and even years.
