What you can build with WhatsApp drip sequences

Time-based steps

Schedule each message N minutes / hours / days after the previous step. Respect customer timezones automatically. Skip weekends or business hours optionally.

Branching logic

If the customer clicked the CTA in step 2, send the upsell. If not, send a recovery offer. Multi-path flows with up to N branches per node.

5+ trigger types

Triggers: contact added to list, custom field updated, campaign delivered, message received, e-commerce event (cart abandoned, order placed). Mix and match.

Response-aware logic

Detect specific keywords in customer replies and branch accordingly. 'YES' starts an order flow; 'STOP' pauses the drip and removes from list.

Personalization in every step

Each step interpolates {{first_name}}, {{loyalty_tier}}, custom fields. Carousel templates with personalized cards per customer also supported.

Per-step analytics

See drop-off at each step, click-through per step, and total conversion. Optimize the weak links instead of guessing.

Building a WhatsApp drip in 5 minutes

  1. 1

    Pick a trigger

    Choose what starts the drip — a contact added to 'New Lead' list, an abandoned cart, an order placed, or any custom event you fire via API.

  2. 2

    Add steps in the visual builder

    Drag template messages onto the canvas. Connect them with delays (immediate, 30 min, 24 h, 3 days, etc.). Add branches based on customer behavior.

  3. 3

    Configure each message

    Pick a template (or write a freeform message for service conversations), insert personalization variables, configure buttons or carousel cards per step.

  4. 4

    Test with a sample contact

    Run the drip end-to-end with your own number first. See exactly what the customer sees, including timing of each step (in a sped-up preview mode).

  5. 5

    Activate

    Toggle the drip on. New customers entering via the trigger start the flow automatically. Track conversions and iterate on weak steps over time.

Why WhatsApp drips dominate email drips

Drip campaigns aren't a new idea — every marketing automation tool from Mailchimp to HubSpot to Klaviyo has supported them for a decade. What's new is the channel. The exact same drip strategy that converts at 2-3% in email regularly converts at 10-20% in WhatsApp, simply because customers actually read WhatsApp messages.

The math compounds at every step. If an email drip has a 16% open rate per step over a 5-step sequence, only 0.16^5 = 0.01% of recipients see every message. The same drip in WhatsApp, with 98% open rates per step, gets 0.98^5 = 90% of recipients through the entire sequence. That's not a marginal improvement — it's why WhatsApp drips routinely 10x email drips on conversion.

Edesy's drip builder is visual and code-free. You see the flow as a tree: trigger at the top, message steps as nodes, delays as edges between them, branches splitting the tree based on customer behavior. The most useful feature beyond the visual builder is response-aware branching: if a customer replies to step 2 with 'tell me more', branch into the 'high interest' path; if they reply 'unsubscribe', exit the drip. This kind of behavioral routing is technically possible in most marketing tools, but practically painful — Edesy makes it a single configuration toggle.

The practical impact for most teams is they replace four or five separate manual campaign sends with one drip that runs forever. Onboarding new customers? Set up the drip once, every new signup gets the full 7-day flow. Recovering abandoned carts? One drip handles thousands of carts a week without anyone touching the campaigns dashboard. The team's time shifts from 'sending campaigns' to 'optimizing drips that already run' — much higher leverage.
