Why the conversation decides the purchase
The customer compares prices online but buys from the one who answers questions, accepts used phones for trade-in, and offers installments. The store that responds quickly via WhatsApp, with clear inventory and knowledgeable service, closes the sale that the website can’t.
After the sale, accessories, screen protectors, and support keep the customer coming back.
