Scaling a WhatsApp-First Partner Acquisition Motion
A partner acquisition motion in Brazil relied heavily on WhatsApp, high-volume prospecting and significant manual seller effort. I redesigned the operating model and built an AI-assisted system to support research, prioritization, outreach, follow-up, scheduling and CRM synchronization.
- Context
- High lead volume, a channel sensitive to generic messaging, repetitive manual work and a motion that depended on individual seller knowledge.
- Approach
- Mapped the commercial flow, structured qualification and prioritization rules, wrote the playbook, defined human approval points, then implemented the system and integrated it with CRM and calendar.
- Results
- During the measured 31-day production period, the system supported a motion that processed 1,758 leads and 11,925 messages, held a 25.1% reply rate and generated 84 signed partner contracts, with human approval required at the final contract stage.
