More than 1.5 billion people in over 180 countries use WhatsApp today to stay in touch with friends and family, anytime and anywhere. With WhatsApp Business, companies will be connected in real-time with consumers across the globe.
Customers want to connect with businesses in the same way they chat with their friends and family - with fast, simple, and convenient messaging. In fact, 63 percent of consumers who have used messaging to contact a brand report satisfaction with their experience. And with over two billion messages being exchanged between consumers and companies monthly, the growing global preference for conducting customer support through messaging is not slowing down anytime soon.
"Great companies are committed to serving their customers whenever and wherever customers want to get answers," said Lithium CEO Pete Hess. "Messaging channels like WhatsApp Business give companies a fast and simple way to address customer questions in a direct and highly personalized way."
The Lithium platform centralizes private messages like WhatsApp Business, public social, and branded communities for companies to engage at scale. Lithium’s participation in the WhatsApp Business early access program will help our customers reach their audience at a global scale, while increasing value of engagement.
