How to track WhatsApp leads from Facebook and Instagram ads
Many ads send people to a WhatsApp chat. The hard part comes after: the chats arrive and you cannot tell which ad, post or audience they came from.
You can fix this with a few habits. Give every ad its own Whatslynk link, name its campaign and give it its own first message. Then compare the clicks and the chats that start with each message.
