For Fatehabad's cotton and agri-product traders, the workshops behind its district's ODOP entry for agriculture implements, the shops that serve Ratia, Tohana, Bhuna and Jakhal, and the guides who show visitors its Tughlaq fort and Ashokan pillar: which WhatsApp message is which, and what each costs.

See it work

Four Fatehabad businesses, three kinds of message

A cotton trader, an implement workshop, a shop and a heritage guide each send three kinds of WhatsApp message. Focus a cell to see which is a reply, which is a utility template and which needs the customer's recorded yes.

The left column costs ₹0.145 a reply and needs no template; the middle column is ₹0.19 a message; the right column is ₹0.94 and only for customers whose yes is on record.

Most of a Fatehabad trader's month sits in the left column, because farmers write first.

Fatehabad in eight lines

The town's founding, the district and Banawali are general history from Wikipedia, and the trades from Invest India's ODOP list; the district administration's site was unavailable when this page was researched.

Firoz Shah Tughlaq established the town on 23 August 1351 and named it Fatehabad after his newborn son, Fateh Khan; he also built its fort in the 14th century.[1]

Some historians consider a pillar in the town to be an Ashokan victory pillar, and Humayun's mosque holds the lower portion of an Ashokan pillar.[1]

Fatehabad district was carved out of Hisar district on 15 July 1997; its tehsils are Fatehabad, Ratia and Tohana, with Bhuna and Jakhal among its sub-tehsils.[2]

The northern part of the district is drained by the Ghaggar-Hakra system.[2]

Bagri and Haryanvi are spoken by most of the district, and Punjabi is Haryana's additional official language.[2]

Banawali, in the district, is an Indus Valley site on the left bank of the dried-up Sarasvati, excavated by R. S. Bisht of the Archaeological Survey of India in 1974.[3]

Its finds include small stone weights, seals, gold beads, a touchstone and a terracotta model of a plough.[3]

Invest India's ODOP list names cotton and agri-based products, and agriculture implements, for Fatehabad district.[4]

From a terracotta plough to an implement workshop

Among the finds at Banawali, the Harappan site in Fatehabad district, is a terracotta model of a plough. Thousands of years later the district's ODOP entry is agriculture implements, beside cotton and agri-based products. The farm is still the customer.

That makes the WhatsApp question simple for a Fatehabad workshop or trader. Farmers write first, about a rate, a part or a delivery date, and every answer to them is a reply. The workshop's own messages are few and predictable: the bill, the ready-for-pickup note, a payment reminder. Write those once as templates in Hindi or Punjabi, and keep offers for the farmers who asked to hear them.

Questions Fatehabad businesses ask

Farmers write to our Fatehabad cotton trading firm in Bagri to ask the day's rate. Can the rate go back in Bagri?+
Yes. When a farmer writes first, your answers for the next 24 hours are free-form replies at ₹0.145 each, in Bagri or any language. Templates are different: Bagri is not a template language, so the payment note goes in Hindi (hi) or Punjabi (pa).
Our agriculture-implement workshop in Fatehabad builds to order. Can the farmer get a ready-for-pickup note with the bill?+
Yes. A ready-for-pickup note for an implement the farmer ordered is a utility template at ₹0.19, with the invoice PDF in the header and the pickup time as a variable. If the farmer replies to ask about delivery, your answers are replies at ₹0.145.
Many customers who come to our Fatehabad shop from Ratia and Tohana read Punjabi. Can our templates be in Punjabi?+
Yes. Punjabi (pa) is a Meta template language. Each language is a separate template under the same name, so submit the Punjabi and Hindi versions of an order-ready note and send each customer the one they prefer, at ₹0.19 either way.
Visitors ask our Fatehabad guide service about Humayun's mosque and its Ashokan pillar. Do our answers need templates?+
No. The visitor asked, so the timings, the route from the pillar to the Tughlaq fort and photos are replies at ₹0.145 each for 24 hours. A confirmation for a walk booked for another day, sent after the window has closed, is a utility template.
Can our Fatehabad implement dealer send a new-model note to every farmer who bought from us before the last sowing?+
Only to farmers who agreed to hear about new models and offers; a past purchase is not that yes. A new-model note is a marketing template at ₹0.94, and InfiQ records each farmer's opt-in with its date and source and enforces STOP.
Traders in Bhuna and Jakhal buy from our Fatehabad agri-products unit on credit. Can payment reminders go out from our Busy accounts?+
Yes. InfiQ's native Busy integration sends invoices and automatic payment reminders on WhatsApp with no integration fee. Each reminder to a trader's Indian number is a utility message at ₹0.19, and the trader's questions in reply cost ₹0.145 each.
