WhatsApp Business Launches ‘Boost Status’ Feature: Here’s How It Works
Meta-owned instant messaging app WhatsApp is reportedly rolling out a new Boost Status shortcut for Android and iOS businesses that will allow them to promote their status updates on Facebook and Instagram. The shortcut encourages businesses to consider promoting status updates to reach a wider audience.
“WhatsApp has been constantly developing new features to help businesses reach new people and providing important tools to help them better connect with their customers. Many businesses have successfully promoted their products from their catalog through Facebook ads to reach new customers, and this is has certainly been a widely used tool in recent months,” WABetaInfo reported.
The Meta-owned platform is encouraging more people to use similar business tools by releasing a shortcut that allows some businesses to quickly use the ability to promote a status on Facebook, according to the report.
How Boost Status Feature Works in WhatsApp
– A new shortcut for promoting status updates may appear after sharing them
– It allows companies to forward status updates to the Facebook application.
– On Facebook, it is possible to continue editing the advertisement and description and set how long the company wants it to be displayed.
Note that some lucky beta testers of the business app may also see an additional shortcut to a similar feature by sending a message to the Facebook app to create an ad for Instagram and Facebook.
According to the report, one of the benefits of status promotion is that it provides a new way to reach a wider audience. By promoting status updates, businesses can reach customers who are not on WhatsApp but are using Facebook and Instagram.
According to the report, companies can now reach a larger audience and increase sales. It also offers companies more options to advertise their products and services.
The Meta-owned app encourages businesses to consider promoting their status updates so they can create an ad that can be displayed on other Meta apps. “In this case, customers can also click on WhatsApp to reach the company,” WABetaInfo reported.
It is important to note that the boost mode is not shared with other WhatsApp users as this feature only provides optional advertising functionality on Instagram and Facebook.
A new shortcut to promote your status is available to some users who install the latest business versions of WhatsApp beta on iOS and Android, and will roll out to more businesses in the coming weeks.
