Bulk WhatsApp Messaging

In today’s digital age, a plain text message might not be enough to capture your audience’s attention. Multimedia messaging—images, videos, audio, and documents—can transform your communication and deliver richer, more engaging content. With SMSLeopard, incorporating multimedia into your messaging strategy is seamless, especially via WhatsApp messaging.


📸 Why Use Multimedia Messages?

Multimedia enhances the impact of your communication by:

  • Making messages more visually appealing

  • Increasing engagement and response rates

  • Providing more information in less space

  • Enabling emotional connection and storytelling

Whether it’s a product photo, a demo video, or a voice greeting—multimedia brings your message to life.


💬 How SMSLeopard Supports Multimedia Messaging

While SMS is limited to text, SMSLeopard integrates with WhatsApp to support rich media content. Here’s what you can send:

  • Images: Product shots, flyers, infographics

  • Videos: Tutorials, greetings, campaign launches

  • Documents: Invoices, brochures, event invites (PDF, DOCX, etc.)

  • Audio: Voice notes, announcements

You can send these files alongside personalized text to make your message both informative and engaging.

  • Combine with a clear call-to-action

  • Personalize the accompanying text using contact fields (e.g., "Hi {FirstName}, here’s your event invite!")

  • Test before sending to ensure compatibility
