WhatsApp Group SLA Monitoring for FMCG Distributor Order Groups

WhatsApp group SLA monitoring for FMCG distributor order groups

FMCG distributors take orders and answer availability queries in retailer WhatsApp groups. When a retailer's order sits unanswered, it goes to another distributor. Bow Chat puts a response clock on order groups so nothing is missed.

Answer retailer orders before they go to a competitor

ProblemProblem Statement

Pain PointsKey Pain Points

!No owner for responses across retailer and beat groups.
!Sales leads cannot see which groups are slipping.
!High-value orders are lost in the volume.
