The price is fixed

Someone asks for a discount.

Hi [name], thank you for asking. ₹[amount] is already the best price I can offer, so I'm not able to reduce it further. I hope you understand, and I'd be glad to help if you'd like to go ahead.

Tired of typing the same thing all day?

Weathervane reads your Instagram DMs and, when a customer agrees to buy, turns it into an order for you to check. You still reply to every customer yourself.

Quick answers.

What should an order confirmation message include?

Say what they ordered, the total, when it should arrive and how they will hear from you next. Message 5 has all four. Keep it short and friendly, and it is easy to send every time.

Can I use these on Instagram too?

Yes. They are plain text, so they work in Instagram DMs as well. Copy the message, paste it into the chat and send it yourself. The WhatsApp button only opens WhatsApp.

How do I save them as quick replies?

In the WhatsApp Business app, open Business tools, then Quick replies, and add a new one. Paste the message and give it a shortcut like /price. After that, typing the slash brings it up. Instagram business accounts have saved replies too.

Does this page save what I type?

Only your shop name, UPI ID and delivery time are remembered, and only on your own phone or computer, so you do not have to type them again. The customer's name, the item and the amount are never saved. Nothing you type is sent to us.

What is Manglish?

Malayalam typed in English letters, the way most people text each other. Choose it if that is how your customers write to you.

Can I change the words?

Please do. These are a starting point written the way people actually chat. Paste one into WhatsApp and change anything so it sounds like you.

Is it free?

Yes, it is free and there is nothing to sign up for.
