The problem it solves

Every time you launch a new product, someone has to tell customers about it, and that usually means manual messages that go out late or not at all. You want people to hear about new arrivals right away, without adding more to your team's plate.

Who it fits

A Shopify store owner who wants to promote new products directly to customers on WhatsApp.

How it works

  1. A new product added to your Shopify store starts the process
  2. AI turns the product description into short, easy to read bullet points
  3. The system checks which customer phone numbers are active on WhatsApp
  4. Each verified customer receives a personalized WhatsApp message with photos and a link to buy
  5. Every message sent or skipped is logged in Google Sheets
What you get

Customers who hear about a new product first

Customers get a friendly WhatsApp message with photos the moment you add a new product.

What you get

A WhatsApp message sent to each verified customer, plus a Google Sheets log of who was reached.

What you need

A Shopify store, a WhatsApp messaging API account, an OpenAI API key, and a Google account for Sheets.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
