Stop Getting Ignored: Why Your Customers Are Hanging Up (And the Simple Fix for It)
We have all been there.
Your phone rings. You look down and see a random phone number or, worse, a red "Spam Risk" warning. What you do is ignore it.
For decades, business calling was simple: you dialed, and people answered. But today, that model is broken. Traditional phone systems focus on connecting wires, not people. When you dial blindly, without the customer knowing who you are, you are essentially dialing into a void.
The result? Answer rates for traditional calls have crashed to less than 15%.
But the industry has finally started to look for better alternatives.
WhatsApp has officially launched Business Calling, and it changes the game entirely.
It creates an instant psychological shift. For the customer, the fear disappears. They see your Verified Business Name, Logo, and Blue Tick before they pick up. For the business, the wall comes down. Answer rates skyrocket from <15% to over 40%.
However, there is a catch here.
While WhatsApp provides the identity that gets customers to answer, enterprises need more than just a raw connection. You need governance.
If you use the raw WhatsApp API, you are flying blind again just in a different way. No recordings, no compliance, and no sync with your CRM. It’s a "dumb pipe".
This is where Peach comes in.
We provide the intelligence layer that manages, records, and syncs calls turning a raw feature into a real business tool.
We make it compliant: Unlike the raw API which retains no audio, we automatically record, transcribe, and encrypt every call to ensure full legal compliance.
We remove the blind spots: We merge calls and chats into a single timeline inside our Shared Inbox, ensuring agents see the full conversation history before they even say hello.
We let you work from anywhere: While the history lives in the inbox, agents can answer calls from anywhere using our Widget. We embed the calling interface directly into your CRM, so agents can pick up without breaking their workflow.
We handle the data: Instead of isolated data living in an app, we sync all call logs and analytics directly to your CRM automatically.
So, who is this actually for?
WhatsApp Calling is not a replacement for every type of call. It is a premium channel for High-Touch, High-Value Relationship Teams, not for High-Volume Cold Callers.
Do NOT use this for: Cold calling 500 random numbers an hour. WhatsApp requires consent, and spamming will get you banned (more info on this below).
DO use this for: Teams that need high trust and high answer rates.
Industry | Use Case | Why It Works |
|---|---|---|
Investment (PMS) | Portfolio Reviews: Scheduled updates or urgent market alerts. | Clients need to trust the source immediately before discussing financial decisions. |
Fintech / Insurance | Application Drop-offs: Calling immediately when a user abandons a form to understand the issue. | Catching the user at the exact moment of friction increases conversion; the trusted badge ensures they pick up. |
E-commerce / D2C | COD Confirmation: Verifying high-value orders before shipping. | Reduces RTO (Return to Origin) significantly by ensuring the customer is real and available. |
Luxury Retail | Concierge Access: Notifying VIPs of new arrivals. | High-value clients expect a personalized, white-glove experience, not a random phone number. |
You don’t need to change your dialer, just your approach.
There is no need to rip out your current setup.
Keep your existing tools (like Exotel or Twilio) for what they are good at: high-volume, top-of-funnel outreach where quantity is the main goal.
Add Peach for the customers who actually matter, the ones stuck on a payment page, waiting for a renewal, or expecting a premium service.
It isn't about replacing your stack. It is about using the right tool for the right conversation: use the standard dialer for the cold leads, and the "verified" voice for the relationships that count.
