Here's a number most marketing teams haven't fully confronted:
Average #email open rate across industries: #21%.
Average #WhatsApp message open rate: #98%.
That means if you send a #campaign to 10,000 people via #email — 7,900 of them never see it. They don't reject it. They just never know it existed.
The same #campaign on #WhatsApp reaches 9,800 of those 10,000 people.
This isn't a content problem. It's a channel problem.
#Email sits in the promotions tab — between every other brand fighting for the same attention. #WhatsApp sits in the personal inbox, where people keep #messages from their family.
The #businesses that understand this aren't abandoning email. They're using #WhatsApp for the #conversations that actually need to be seen:
→ Time-sensitive offers
→ Appointment reminders
→ Order updates
→ Follow-ups after a lead interaction
The channel with the highest open rate should carry your most important messages.
#Engagekart gives you #WhatsApp_Business_API — the infrastructure behind that 98%.
