Who Is This For?

This n8n workflow enables automated cross-selling by identifying each WooCommerce customer's most frequently purchased product, finding a related product to recommend, and sending a personalized WhatsApp message using the Rapiwa API. It also verifies whether the user's number is WhatsApp-enabled before sending, and logs both successful and unsuccessful attempts to Google Sheets for tracking.

What This Workflow Does

  • Retrieves all paying customers from your WooCommerce store
  • Identifies each customer's most purchased product
  • Finds the latest product in the same category as their most purchased item
  • Cleans and verifies customer phone numbers for WhatsApp compatibility
  • Sends personalized WhatsApp messages with product recommendations
  • Logs all activities to Google Sheets for tracking and analysis
  • Handles both verified and unverified numbers appropriately

Key Features

  • Customer Segmentation: Automatically identifies paying customers from your WooCommerce store
  • Product Analysis: Determines each customer's most purchased product
  • Smart Recommendations: Finds the latest products in the same category as customer favorites
  • WhatsApp Integration: Uses Rapiwa API for message delivery
  • Phone Number Validation: Verifies WhatsApp numbers before sending messages
  • Dual Logging System: Tracks both successful and failed message attempts in Google Sheets
  • Rate Limiting: Uses batching and wait nodes to prevent API overload
  • Personalized Messaging: Includes customer name and product details in messages

Requirements

  • WooCommerce store with API access

Important Notes

  • Phone Number Format: The workflow cleans phone numbers by removing all non-digit characters. Ensure your WooCommerce phone numbers are in a compatible format.
  • API Rate Limits: Rapiwa and WooCommerce APIs have rate limits. Adjust batch sizes and wait times accordingly.
  • Data Privacy: Ensure compliance with data protection regulations when sending marketing messages.
  • Error Handling: The workflow logs unverified numbers but doesn't have extensive error handling. Consider adding error notifications for failed API calls.
  • Product Availability: The workflow recommends the latest product in a category, but doesn't check if it's in stock. Consider adding stock status verification.
  • Testing: Always test with a small batch before running the workflow on your entire customer list.
