Influencer brings attention. WhatsApp turns it into sales
An influencer’s post can bring hundreds of people to the brand’s profile in just a few hours. Without a clear path to purchase, that attention only turns into likes. Brands that sell with influencers prepare customer service before the post goes live.
WhatsApp and Direct are where these people ask questions and decide. The faster and more organized the service, the more the partnership pays off.
Choose the influencer by audience
The number of followers matters less than who those followers are. A smaller profile with an audience similar to your customer usually brings more sales than a large, generic profile.

A link with a ready message
Create a WhatsApp link with a pre-written message mentioning the influencer, such as "I came through Júlia’s recommendation." This way you know where each conversation came from and start service in the right context.
Exclusive coupon
A coupon with the influencer’s name helps measure sales and gives the follower a reason to act immediately.
Prepare the team for the peak
Agree on the day and time of the post and have the team ready. Answers to the most common questions and tags to separate campaign leads prevent anyone from waiting.
Identified advertising
Paid posts must be identified as advertising, according to CONAR guidelines and platform rules. Include this in the contract with the influencer.
After the campaign
Those who reached out but didn’t buy are still interested. A message a few days later, with permission, recovers some of those sales.
Measure each partnership
Open conversations, sales with the coupon, and revenue per influencer. With these numbers, you renew with those who sell and stop paying those who only bring likes.
A simple briefing
Send the influencer what the product solves, who it’s for, main questions, and the link with the ready message. Leave space for them to speak in their own way. The audience notices when the text was written by the brand, and that undermines trust.
