Send a WhatsApp Template Message via Cloud API When a New Lead is Captured through Facebook Lead Ads
This automation workflow kicks in once a new lead is captured through Facebook Lead Ads. It will then automatically send a templated message using the WhatsApp Cloud API to contact the lead. This way, you won’t miss out on any potential clients and you can provide immediate response or information to your new leads, thereby enhancing your customer service response time
