Notis

Review expansion markets and capture a quick decision

Put the relevant local indicators beside a simple next-step choice.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.

Action

Send interactive buttons

Send an interactive button message to a whatsapp number. button messages allow users to quickly respond by tapping up to 3 predefined buttons. perfect for yes/no questions, quick choices, or call-to-action scenarios. note: the message will be delivered to the recipient only if they have texted first.

Why this helps

Market reviews often end with useful data but no clear decision or owner for the next step.

  • Pair population context with an explicit decision prompt.
  • Offer up to three quick response choices.
  • Reduce the back and forth after a market review.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Census bureau and Whatsapp once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation and describe the candidate geography, indicators, and decision choices.
  • 3Pick a recurring schedule and choose a report channel.
  • 4Confirm the button recipients have texted your WhatsApp number first.
  • 5Test with one real market and check that the summary and choices are clear.

Questions about this workflow

Can the buttons reach people who have not messaged us?

The Send interactive buttons action notes that delivery requires the recipient to have texted first.

Does this workflow determine whether a market will succeed?

No. It shares Census context and collects a response. Your team supplies its criteria and makes the decision.
