Por: Gabriela Jaimes Galindo

It’s no secret that for people selling through digital channels, WhatsApp is the go-to platform for conducting the purchasing process with ease, along with Instagram and Facebook.

From this instant messaging application, there are two versions: WhatsApp, the app we use daily to communicate with our family and friends, and WhatsApp Business, a version specifically developed for businesses. Right from the start, we can tell you that if you’re selling through this channel, using Business is the ideal choice. Why? Keep reading to clear any doubts.
