Questions
Why send NRI clients a weekly update?
They can’t drop by the office, and time zones make calls hard. A fixed weekly message with videos and a clear next step replaces several missed calls, and the call slot in their own time zone shows you planned for them.
Is this a utility message?
Yes, when it reports on a search or sale the client asked you to run. If you start adding unrelated projects or offers, send those as separate marketing messages with consent.
Tips
- Keep the client’s country code on the number; WhatsApp and SMS both need the full international format.
- Quiet hours apply in the client’s time zone, not yours — a 2 pm IST message is 4:30 am in California.
- Video walkthroughs replace most first visits for NRIs; a parent or relative usually does the final visit.
Utility templates must relate to something the customer asked for.
