WhatsApp Automation for PR Firms

Manage Reputation,Media & Crises — on WhatsApp

From media pitch coordination and journalist relations to crisis communication and client reporting — WhatsForm keeps every PR conversation structured, fast, and fully trackable on WhatsApp.

PR Firms Operate Under Constant Time Pressure

In PR, timing is everything. Slow communication and scattered processes can damage both your client's reputation and your own.

🚨

Crisis Response Is Too Slow

When a negative story breaks, minutes matter. Coordinating spokesperson statements, getting client approvals, and briefing media contacts through email costs precious time.

📰

Media Pitching Lacks Follow-Through

Pitches go out, journalists don't respond, and there is no systematic way to follow up, track interest, or know which stories are gaining traction.

📁

Client Approvals Slow Down Releases

Press releases and media statements bounce through email for client approval. Embargoed deadlines are missed because someone didn't see the email in time.

📊

Coverage Reporting Is Labour-Intensive

Manually compiling clippings, coverage metrics, and AVE data into monthly reports takes hours. Clients rarely read the PDF attachments sent over email.

WhatsForm Keeps Your PR Operations Fast and Coordinated

Purpose-built WhatsApp workflows for media relations, crisis response, and client communication.

🚨

Instant Crisis Communication Hub

When a crisis hits, WhatsForm coordinates rapid response — alerting the right team members, routing client approval requests, and distributing approved statements to media contacts, all on WhatsApp.

📰

Media Pitch Tracking & Follow-Up

Log media pitches and automate structured follow-ups on WhatsApp. Know which journalists are interested, which stories are gaining traction, and which pitches need a different angle.

Fast Press Release Approvals

Share press releases and media statements with clients on WhatsApp for instant review and one-tap approval. Automated reminders ensure sign-off before embargo deadlines.

📊

Coverage Reports Delivered on WhatsApp

Send coverage summaries, sentiment snapshots, and key metrics directly to clients on WhatsApp. Higher open rates than email reports mean clients stay informed and satisfied.

From Retainer Kick-Off to Monthly Coverage Report

A complete PR engagement workflow powered by WhatsApp.

01

Client Onboarding & Brand Brief

New retainer clients complete a structured WhatsApp onboarding brief — covering key messages, spokespeople, target media, sensitivities, and crisis contacts — so your team starts with full context.

02

Campaign Planning & Story Bank

Monthly PR calendars and story angles are shared with clients for input and approval on WhatsApp. Clients review and approve via simple reactions or text replies — no log-ins or portals.

03

Press Releases Drafted, Approved & Distributed

Draft releases are shared for fast client approval on WhatsApp. Once approved, distribution lists are triggered and media contacts receive pitch notes instantly.

04

Coverage Tracked & Highlights Shared Daily

Key coverage hits are shared with clients on WhatsApp as they appear — a short note, the link, and the headline. Clients see value in real time, not once a month.

05

Monthly Report Delivered & Renewal Secured

Monthly coverage reports with clippings, metrics, and sentiment are sent on WhatsApp in a digestible format. Retainer renewal conversations are triggered automatically at the right moment.

40%
Better Retainer Retention

Clients who receive proactive WhatsApp updates are significantly more likely to renew their retainer.

"During a crisis last year, we coordinated four spokespeople and got client approval on the statement in 18 minutes via WhatsForm. Our previous record was 3 hours over email. That speed protected the client — and secured a 2-year retainer extension."
