For shops and retail
The customer in front of you comes first. The one on WhatsApp still gets an answer.
Cosend puts your shop's WhatsApp number in an inbox anyone on the floor can open on the computer, and answers the "are you open?" and "do you have it in blue?" messages when nobody can.


Your week
-
Monday, 09:10.
Six messages from the weekend. Two are "are you open Sunday?", answered automatically at the time. Four are real questions, sitting in the inbox with nobody's name on them yet. You assign two to Sara, two to yourself.
-
Wednesday, 14:30.
A customer asks for the blue one in size 38. You reply from the phone at the counter; the reply shows up in the inbox, so Sara doesn't answer it again.
-
Saturday, 21:50.
"Do you deliver?" The auto-reply says yes, and how much. On Monday the order is waiting in the inbox.
Three things that change
Everyone answers.
The whole team sees every chat on the computer, assigns it, leaves a note. The phone stays at the till and keeps working.
Stock and hours questions answer themselves.
Set the answer once; it replies at 9pm the same as at 9am.
Nothing gets lost.
Up to 180 days of chats come with you, and every reply, from the phone or the inbox, is in one place.
