1. Start with One Narrow Workflow
Begin with one clear use case: lead alerts, reminders, or support triage. Validate quality first, then scale into more workflows.
2. Add Deduplication from Day One
When forwarding events from email or webhooks, track message IDs and avoid duplicates. This protects user trust and keeps channels clean.
3. Add Reconnect-Safe Behavior
WhatsApp sessions may disconnect occasionally. Implement retries, logging, and catch-up handling so no important event is lost.
4. Keep Human Approval for High-Risk Actions
For sensitive actions (public posting, financial actions, deletions), require confirmation. Let automation handle low-risk repetitive work.
5. Track Core KPIs Weekly
Measure sent volume, failures, reconnects, response time, and conversion impact. A weekly review keeps automation useful and accountable.
