WhatsApp Business API for Dharapuram's garment units, traders and windmill firms
Dharapuram has been a municipality since 1916 and was once Veeradapuram, capital of Kongu Nadu. Today it farms on the Amaravathi's water and sews for Tiruppur, and both trades run on messages.
For Dharapuram's garment units working near Tiruppur, the traders who buy from farms along the Amaravathi, its windmill service firms and the cabs that run to Palani and Coimbatore: how one garment order moves through its WhatsApp messages, which need templates, and what each costs in rupees.
See it work
One Dharapuram garment order, from sample to payment
A buyer in Tiruppur asks a garment unit near Dharapuram for a sample. Walk the order through its states to see which messages are replies, which must be templates, and which one the unit should not send.
Every message on the main path is either a reply at ₹0.145 or a utility template at ₹0.19, because each one is about something the buyer asked for or ordered. The dispatch note and the payment reminder are the only two templates a unit like this needs to get approved.
The side path is the trap. A buyer who looked at the sample and went quiet has not agreed to offers, so a discount sent to win the order is a marketing message, allowed only with a recorded opt-in.
