WhatsApp Business Scheduler

WhatsApp Message Scheduling

Hey guys this is my first shot on Dribbble and I am excited to share something I worked upon lately. I love Dribbble and as a ui/ux designer I have learnt a lot from here. :)

As a Ui/Ux designer its important to find out problems and generate solution to meet end users needs. And most important thing about Ux design is validating your idea or concept.
I am so happy today that i wanted to share my experience. Few hours after posting my concept on WhatsApp message scheduler for WhatsApp business Deccan Chronicle published an article on “Trick to schedule your WhatsApp messages and more.”

Will upload the WhatsApp scheduler case study soon :)

My Concept:

I remember I always wanted to wish my friends and family on their birthday/anniversary or remind someone something on a particular time or day and would always forget to do so. I had this idea for years and always though it may not be important for whatsapp users.

From a business perspective email marketing is crucial as it helps businesses to reachout to their clients. I have been using mailchimp, constant contact and many other business email marketing and management softwares for a year or so and I always found it to be a very convenient way of doing email marketing.

In most of the reporting and email marketing softwares their is an option for scheduling. The use of email scheduling is that the mail is automatically dispatched at a scheduled time.

Whatsapp launched “Whatsapp business” 4 months back and i though the purpose of having a dedicated app for business should have a message scheduling feature.

I used this idea and created this concept that incorporates message scheduling feature for “whatsapp business”

I used the the concept of "long press" on the "send message button" to enable schedule message as its a quick and easy way for the user to use plus it would become a habit. The best part is it could be used for setting reminders and scheduling important business messages.

I asked a few of my relatives and family friends and their response was that this is an awesome feature — “wow it allows us to schedule messages”
