Contact is only established when customers can actually find you. One way to make sure your customers can find you is using your company's central phone number which is already familiar to your customers. Another important way for customers to engage with you by whatsapp is by offering a Web Widget on your website that works as a Whatsapp launcher.
This web widget can be easily embedded on your website so people can always start a Whatsapp conversation with you or your colleagues by scanning the QR code or clicking on the link.
