Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about WhatsApp marketing ROI

How is WhatsApp marketing ROI calculated?

WhatsApp marketing ROI is calculated as: ((Revenue from WhatsApp - Total WhatsApp Costs) / Total WhatsApp Costs) x 100. Our calculator factors in message costs, platform fees, open rates, click-through rates, and conversion rates to give you accurate projections.

What is a good ROI for WhatsApp marketing?

A good WhatsApp marketing ROI typically ranges from 200% to 500%. This means for every Rs.1 spent, you get Rs.2 to Rs.5 back. WhatsApp campaigns often outperform email and SMS due to higher open rates (95%+) and engagement.

What costs are involved in WhatsApp marketing?

WhatsApp marketing costs include: per-message costs (Rs.0.30-0.80 depending on category), WhatsApp Business API platform fees, and optional automation tool subscriptions. Template messages for marketing typically cost more than utility messages.

What is the average open rate for WhatsApp messages?

WhatsApp messages have an average open rate of 95-98%, compared to 20-25% for emails. This high engagement is because WhatsApp is a personal messaging app that users check frequently throughout the day.

How many WhatsApp promotional messages can I send per month?

With official WhatsApp Business API, you can send unlimited messages to opted-in customers. However, you need to maintain quality - Meta tracks your messaging quality and can reduce your limits if spam rates are high.

Is WhatsApp marketing better than email marketing?

WhatsApp marketing typically outperforms email in open rates (95% vs 20%), click-through rates (15-20% vs 2-5%), and response times (90% of messages read within 3 minutes). However, costs are higher per message, so ROI depends on your conversion rates.

What is a good conversion rate for WhatsApp campaigns?

WhatsApp marketing conversion rates typically range from 3-10%, significantly higher than email (1-2%) or SMS (2-3%). Product-focused campaigns with clear CTAs and limited-time offers tend to perform best.
