Very time consuming

get broadcasted message

Bulk messages

Outsource to company

Bulk messages

Some companies have database and


you have just give message and
money
Other companies give software from
which you can send the message in
bulk
This is not allowed by Whats app and
can be stopped any time.

What should not be done

Spam dont over use as it may get


you block out
Everyday message?
Only property advertisement
Heavy files frequently

Groups

Most people dislike groups where


they dont know members
Avoid making groups of unknown
people
Dont post advertisement on groups

Profile

Put good profile photo


Update status regularly
Put photo with RE/MAX logo
sometimes so friends know you are
with RE/MAX
Keep changing

Dont change numbers

If you change your number your


contacts will lose you and broadcast
may not work

Good practices

Response quickly to a WhtsApp


When you read a message & task has to
be done. Note it in task list in mobile at
the same moment.
Mute groups who have fun stuff so your
work is not disturbed
Only in blackberry there is broadcast list
option
Dont over use WhtsApp

2 Smart phones

Keep one smart phone for:


Calling
Email
Browsing

Keep one for WhtsApp


You can configure different smart
phone with your popular number

Key is Database

Always save mobile number of your


contacts may be they are in your WhatsApp
automatically
For the groups you are in search for people
who may not mind if you add them.
Look for all contacts and add them on
WhtsApp

Make different broadcast list like


Brokers
Past Clients
Friends
Relatives
to send targeted contact.

Database unlimited

I have 7000 people in my address


book
But not all are getting WhtsApp as
not all numbers are stored as mobile
number
So save all numbers as mobile to get
in WhatsApp
Save all incoming calls
(advertise/contacts) so they can be
kept in touch - free

A good companion to Whats App

True caller

book
It shows the True name of the Caller
It finds contact details globally
Integratedcaller ID service
Call blocking functionality
Social media integration to keep phonebook up-todate
It is available for Android,BlackBerry OS,iOS,Series

Conclusion
