WhatsApp for Site Visit Scheduling
Turn interested leads into confirmed site visits without a single missed call. InfiQ, an official Meta Business Partner in India, lets you book, confirm, remind and reschedule site visits entirely inside WhatsApp — the one channel your prospects actually open. Instead of chasing buyers over email they never read and phone calls they never answer, you send a personalised booking flow, they pick a slot with a tap, and your sales team gets a clean, confirmed appointment on their calendar.
Playbook TL;DR
InfiQ runs your entire site-visit booking journey on WhatsApp — slot selection flows, confirmations, day-before and same-day reminders, and one-tap rescheduling — triggered from your CRM or website. Fewer no-shows, faster confirmations, and every visit logged, on WhatsApp Business API pricing with transparent ₹ rates.Why site-visit booking breaks down on calls and email
A site visit is a high-intent moment — a real-estate buyer wanting to tour a flat, a solar customer wanting a rooftop survey, a car shopper booking a test drive. Yet most teams still coordinate these visits over phone tag and email threads that quietly leak leads. Prospects screen calls from unknown numbers, ignore email confirmations, and forget the appointment they verbally agreed to three days ago. Your relationship managers burn hours redialling, your slots sit half-empty, and no-shows waste the site staff who showed up to meet nobody. The core issue isn't your team's effort — it's the channel. WhatsApp closes that gap because it is read within minutes, keeps the whole thread in one place, and lets a prospect confirm in a single tap without saving a number or opening an app they don't use.
- Unknown-number calls go unanswered, so confirmations never happen
- Email reminders land in Promotions or go unread entirely
- Verbal agreements are forgotten, driving high no-show rates
- Manual coordination doesn't scale past a handful of visits a day
- No single record of what was offered, confirmed or rescheduled
The WhatsApp booking flow, end to end
InfiQ maps your site-visit journey into an automated WhatsApp flow that runs from the first nudge to the post-visit follow-up. When a lead qualifies — a form submission, a CRM stage change, or an agent tapping 'invite to visit' — a personalised message goes out with the property, product or project name filled in. The prospect opens an interactive booking flow, picks a date and time from your live availability, and confirms. InfiQ writes the appointment back to your CRM or calendar, sends an instant confirmation with the address and a map pin, and schedules automatic reminders. A day-before and a two-hours-before reminder cut no-shows, and a single 'Reschedule' button lets the customer move the slot themselves instead of ghosting. After the visit, a follow-up message can gather feedback or hand a hot lead straight to your sales team.
- Trigger: form, CRM stage change, or manual agent invite
- Interactive slot picker driven by your real availability
- Instant confirmation with address, map link and directions
- Automated day-before and same-day reminders to cut no-shows
- One-tap self-service reschedule and cancel
- Post-visit feedback or warm hand-off to a live agent
Templates and message categories that power it
Site-visit messaging spans both transactional and promotional intent, so InfiQ helps you pick the right approved WhatsApp template category for each step. The initial 'you're eligible for a site visit' or promotional re-invite is typically a marketing template and needs opt-in. Booking confirmations, reminders and reschedule notices are utility templates tied to a genuine transaction the customer initiated. Because Meta bills per delivered message by category since 1 July 2025 — marketing, utility and authentication each priced differently — getting the category right keeps your per-message cost honest and your delivery compliant. InfiQ pre-builds and submits these templates for approval, wires in the dynamic variables (name, property, slot, address), and shows every rate as transparent ₹ pricing, ex-GST, so you can forecast a campaign before you send it.
- Marketing template: initial visit invite or re-engagement (opt-in required)
- Utility template: confirmation, reminder and reschedule notices
- Dynamic variables for name, project, slot, address and agent
- Interactive buttons and list messages for one-tap slot selection
- Category chosen per message so billing and compliance stay correct
Integrations that keep it running automatically
The flow only saves time if it fires without anyone remembering to press send. InfiQ connects to the tools you already run so bookings, confirmations and reminders trigger from real events in your stack. A new qualified lead in Zoho CRM can auto-send a visit invite; a paid booking fee through Razorpay can confirm the slot; a form on your Shopify or website funnel can drop the prospect straight into the scheduling flow. Appointments and reschedules sync back so your team never works from a stale calendar. If your setup is custom, InfiQ's API and webhooks let your backend trigger any step and receive the outcome. The result is a booking engine that runs quietly in the background and only surfaces a human when a real conversation is needed.
- Zoho CRM and other CRMs for lead-triggered invites and write-back
- Razorpay for booking-fee confirmation before the slot locks
- Shopify and web forms to funnel prospects into the flow
- API and webhooks for fully custom trigger-and-outcome logic
