Conversational commerce is transforming how ecommerce brands engage, convert, and retain customers. With WhatsApp emerging as a dominant messaging platform, businesses now have a direct line to their audience — one that’s personal, scalable, and sales-driven.
In this article, you’ll discover how a leading skincare brand grew its sales by 40% using Netcore Cloud’s WhatsApp Commerce solution. We’ll break down each tactic they used, what made it successful, and how you can replicate this full-funnel strategy to accelerate your own ecommerce growth.
The Challenge: Standing Out in a Crowded Skincare Market
Despite having quality products and a loyal niche audience, the brand struggled to scale its ecommerce operations. They were facing issues like:
- Abandoned shopping carts with no follow-up
- A slow, clunky customer support system
- Low repeat purchases from existing customers
- Ineffective feedback collection
- Operational inefficiencies in returns and refunds
They needed a channel that could do it all — drive conversions, offer support, and bring customers back for more. WhatsApp, powered by Netcore Cloud, became that all-in-one solution.
The WhatsApp Advantage: Why This Channel Works for Ecommerce
WhatsApp Commerce’s key benefits for ecommerce businesses highlighted
WhatsApp isn’t just a messaging app—it’s where customer relationships are built. With:
- 98% open rates
- 60%+ response rates
- A familiar, mobile-first experience
It’s no wonder that more brands are turning to WhatsApp for sales and support. Netcore Cloud turns this channel into a powerful ecommerce engine by integrating sales, marketing, and service flows into one seamless interface.
Full-Funnel WhatsApp Strategy: Powered by Netcore Cloud
1. Lead Generation on WhatsApp
Starting the conversation is half the battle—and the brand nailed it.
By running click-to-WhatsApp ads on Facebook and Instagram, the brand captured high-intent users and brought them into chat. Netcore’s automation tools engaged them instantly with:
- Personalized welcome messages
- Product suggestions based on quiz-like inputs
- Time-sensitive discounts to push first-time purchases
This replaced static landing pages with real-time interactions, increasing both lead quality and engagement rates.
2. Seamless Ordering Experience
Shopping on WhatsApp? Yes. And it works beautifully.
Netcore enabled the brand to showcase its full catalog inside WhatsApp — complete with:
- Images, descriptions, and prices
- Inventory Status
- Add-to-cart and payment buttons
Customers could browse, ask questions, and complete purchases without leaving the chat. The result? Shorter sales cycles and a significant boost in conversion rates.
3. Shipment Updates & Delivery Notifications
The best kind of support? Proactive communication.
Customers don’t want to ask, “Where’s my order?” Netcore helped automate real-time updates:
- Order confirmations
- Shipping and delivery status
- Delays and ETA notifications
These messages not only improved trust but also slashed inbound support requests related to logistics.
4. Returns and Refunds Automation
Returns don’t have to be painful — for customers or your team.
Netcore’s WhatsApp flows simplified return and refund processes by:
- Automatically verifying order IDs
- Presenting return options based on item category
- Sharing return shipping instructions and status updates
The brand saw improved post-purchase satisfaction and saved dozens of support hours weekly.
5. Feedback Collection Made Easy
Want more reviews? Make it effortless.
Instead of email surveys or annoying pop-ups, the brand used WhatsApp to collect feedback with one simple message:
“How would you rate your experience? Reply with 1–5 stars.”
These bite-sized requests increased their review collection rate 4X, helping optimize products and services based on real feedback.
6. Retargeting Abandoned Carts
A gentle nudge goes a long way when it’s on WhatsApp.
With Netcore’s cart abandonment automation, the brand was able to:
- Send rich reminders featuring product photos
- Offer small incentives like free shipping
- Create urgency with countdown-based offers
Result? A 15% recovery rate, bringing back thousands in lost revenue monthly.
7. Repeat Order Nudges
Why chase new customers when your best ones are already sold?
Netcore’s AI-powered recommendation engine tracked customer purchase behavior and sent timely nudges like:
- “Running low on moisturizer?”
- “Get 10% off your favorite serum—ends today!”
This drove 25% growth in repeat purchases and improved customer lifetime value.
8. FAQ Handling and Live Agent Handoff
Instant answers for simple questions. Human help when needed.
Netcore’s chatbot handled up to 80% of common queries:
- Product availability
- Payment status
- Return policy
For complex issues, the system routed chats to human agents without breaking the conversation flow—keeping customers happy and informed.

Netcore Cloud’s WhatsApp Commerce platform goes beyond messaging automation. It is a comprehensive, enterprise-grade solution designed to meet the evolving needs of ecommerce businesses — from customer acquisition and sales to service and retention.
Here’s a deeper look into the capabilities that make Netcore Cloud the platform of choice for leading ecommerce brands across the globe:
