It's all too common to contact someone via WhatsApp but do not want the trouble of saving their phone number. It could be the delivery man or the plumber you'll not call ever in the future, or even a client via an internet-based marketplace. The contact list on your phone is packed with names that aren't yours, like Carpenter Uncle or the cab guy from the one-time trip. This is messy, ineffective and, face it, a little frustrating.

What's more? It's not necessary to do it for a long time!

You can now send WhatsApp messages without saving numbers. It's much simpler than you'd think. Here's Why & How:

What is the reason for sending WhatsApp messages and not saving the contacts?

The time has gone when it is necessary to include a contact for sending a message. Yet, whatsapp without saving number simplifies the procedure.

Two different business situations require chatting on WhatsApp and not saving contact numbers that are business to a customer as well as a client to a business. Let's look at the struggles in the two scenarios as we think about WhatsApp and saving contact information:

For your business:

The business you run is expanding, and you're producing a large number of leads. But, it's not easy the process of adding your customers' contact information one at a time to email them with marketing information at some point in the future.

For your customers:

There is no reason to waste time and having to include your WhatsApp number could mean the loss of the sale. A potential customer might like your product however if he/she doesn’t even bother if his/her number is saved or not.

How do you send WhatsApp messages, without saving the number?

Simple tricks can allow you to connect immediately without adding new numbers in the address book. Take a look at the following steps to begin chatting more effectively.

1⃣ Use WhatsApp's Click-to-Chat Trick (No App Needed!)

WhatsApp offers a built-in function that allows you to send messages to unassigned numbers with a few steps:

πŸ”˜ Start your internet browser (Chrome, Safari, or whatever else you like).

πŸ”˜ Click this link to get the magic code: https://wa.me/PHONE_NUMBER

Replace PHONE_NUMBER with the real number, which includes the code for the country (but with no the letters + or the number 00). As an example, to get the number +1 234 567 0890 enter:

https://wa.me/1234567890

πŸ”˜ Enter, and you'll be able to see a WhatsApp page, which has the "Continue to Chat" button.

πŸ”˜ Hit it, and voila! WhatsApp is open with the chat set to go!

2⃣ Message Yourself (Sounds Weird, But It Works!)
