175 million people message a business account everyday! We live in the era of convenience and limited patience. When you start using WhatsApp to offer support to customers, it opens a new channel for ongoing conversations.

According to a survey conducted by HubSpot, close to 82% of consumers consider an ‘immediate’ response to their sales/marketing queries as important or very important. And 90% of them consider an ‘immediate’ response as the deciding factor when rating the customer service received.

Now, it’s no easy task to handle all of your customers with a single WhatsApp Business account and can become quite difficult to handle. As your business grows, you may need more than one person to come in to handle these in a timely manner.

You will need multiple company representatives working together to deliver outstanding customer service. This needs adding more than one person in the mix and also making it easy to use the app on multiple devices. This means WhatsApp Business on multi devices is an absolute requirement to manage your business efficiently and smoothly.

In this blog, we’ll tell you how you can easily achieve this.

Can WhatsApp business be used on multiple devices? 

Yes, absolutely!

WhatsApp Business app was actually built with the small business owner in mind, and therefore not the best choice for complex tasks and automation.

For fast-growing SMBs, however, the WhatsApp Business API is more ideal. With this API, you can easily run interactive and engaging ads, provide shopping experiences within WhatsApp conversations and automate notifications and replies to offer great customer support, among many others.
