Now scroll down and pick a template that resonates with the marketing broadcast you need to send
We also give you suggestions on what to use in the variable and various styles you can use.
If you have multiple WhatsApp channels connected, you'll get an option to select the channel, just select the number and we'll automatically create the template.
