The challenge

Customer enquiries arrived through personal WhatsApp numbers, an SMS tool and phone calls. When staff were away or left, conversations and customer history went with them, and managers had no view of response times.

What we built

We deployed Tolkyn with a single WhatsApp Business number shared by the whole team, migrated and deduplicated their contacts into the phone book, and connected bulk SMS and cloud telephony so every interaction appears on one customer timeline.

How we did it

  1. 01

    Discovery

    Mapped every channel and the questions customers ask most often.

  2. 02

    Migration

    Moved contacts from phones and spreadsheets, removing duplicates.

  3. 03

    Rollout

    Trained the team in two short sessions and set up assignment rules.

The outcome

Managers now see response times and workload per person, follow-ups are tracked, and customer history stays with the business — not on individual phones.

“Before Tolkyn, our customer messages lived on five different phones. Now the whole team works from one inbox and nothing falls through the cracks.”
