Golf Monthly Whatapp Broadcast List

[TomC]

We have set up a Whatsapp broadcast list, simply follow the instruction below to sign up

Just add +44 7984 023140 to your contacts and send ‘GOLF’ to subscribe

You will only receive messages from the Golf Monthly Whatsapp number, and no one else will be able to see your number.

Will be a great way to keep up with the latest golf news, club reviews and tips. Also will hopefully have some Whatsapp only competition prizes to be won in the near future.

Might be a stupid question, but do you send the message to that number via normal text or whatsapp?

Text in Whatsapp not as a text message

Had a good few people join up already, would appreciate any feedback

Hey Tom

Like the idea of promoting key content to me via WhatsApp as I don't have time to search the website and often miss things on Twitter. I'd suggest thinking about windows for content so it feels a bit more structured around what I'm likely to be thinking about. So Sunday - Monday I might be thinking about what went wrong on my weekend round so send me instruction content then but dont send it to me on Friday night before the monthly medal

If you can measure click through I'm sure you'll start to get a good idea of what content works best at what times.

Another great forward thinking idea :thup:

How do I prevent the photos loaded by GM onto the WhatsApp feed ending up in my photo library?

Settings > chats > uncheck "save incoming media"

Just signed up to see what it's like...I guess unsubscribing is easy if required as well..

Whatsapp is a good App particularly if you have friends overseas. You can text them without it costing money and text home when abroad - again without cost. Includes attaching pictures etc.

Sort of FaceTime / Skype for the texting fraternity. You can also phone with it but I haven't tried using it as when contacting anyone abroad I use FaceTime. Not sure if calls cost money but assume not?
