Template Best Practices

Write like a human, not a robot. Use natural language, contractions, and appropriate emojis. Avoid corporate jargon.
Every template should have a clear next step—reply, click, call, confirm, etc. Make it obvious what you want the recipient to do.
WhatsApp messages display best under 1,000 characters. For WABA templates, keep body text under 1,024 characters.
Send templates to yourself or colleagues first to catch typos, broken variables, or awkward phrasing.
Review and refresh templates quarterly. Remove outdated ones and create new ones based on what’s converting.
Create 2-3 versions of important templates and track which performs better over time.

Organizing Templates

Use a consistent naming convention for easy searching:
PrefixCategoryExample
SALES_Sales outreachSALES_initial_outreach
SUPPORT_Customer supportSUPPORT_ticket_received
OPS_OperationsOPS_order_shipped
REMINDER_RemindersREMINDER_appointment_24h
FOLLOW_Follow-upsFOLLOW_day3_nurture

Integration with CRM

Templates automatically pull data from your connected CRM:
  • HubSpot: Contact properties, deal info, company data
  • Salesforce: Lead/contact fields, opportunity details
  • Zoho: Module fields, custom variables
  • LeadSquared: Lead properties, activity data
Variables like {{name}} and {{company}} are automatically populated from your CRM contact records when you send the message.
