Does Italy 🇮🇹 do WhatsApp marketing differently to Germany 🇩🇪? We went to Ecommerce Italia to find out, and to raise awareness of the charles WhatsApp platform in this WhatsApp-savvy region.

 

We love nothing more than to get out and about meeting clients and prospects. So we thoroughly enjoyed our trip to Milan in April to meet Italian ecommerce businesses at Ecommerce Italia.

 

With Italy our second core market after Germany, we have a large Italian team here at charles, and 5 of us went along to represent charles:

Antonio says: "Overall it was great, we received a lot of interest by the audience and we felt our speeches were highly appreciated. People in Italy understand that WhatsApp can be powerful as channel but they are still unsure about implementation (WhatsApp Business vs API) and ask privacy-related questions."
