Getting Started

Abkus MKT is a WhatsApp-first marketing CRM. After signing up, connect your WhatsApp Business account, import leads, and start your first sequence.

  2. Onboarding tour — the first time you open the dashboard, a guided tour explains each section.
  3. Import leads — use the public capture form at /comecar or upload a CSV.
  4. Create a sequence — define trigger status, timing, and message templates.
  5. Monitor — use the Analytics dashboard to track conversion rates and pipeline health.

Ecosystem Sales — Sell All Abkus Apps

Abkus MKT is your cross-app sales hub. One account, one CRM — sell every Abkus product from a single pipeline. This is Plano §17 — Conta da ABKUS.

How it works

  1. Capture a lead for any product via the MKT public form or WhatsApp.
  2. Tag the lead by product interest (Travel, SBM, Academic, etc.).
  3. Move the lead through your pipeline — Inquiry → Qualified → Proposal → Won.
  4. Use automated sequences for follow-up — WhatsApp templates with product-specific messaging.
  5. Close and track revenue per product.

The cross-app catalog appears on the landpage. Each product has its own pricing plan.

Sequences & Automation

Sequences define automated message flows triggered by lead status changes.

  • Trigger status — the lead status that starts the sequence (e.g. "Contacted").
  • Steps — individual messages or delays. Each step can be sent after a configurable delay.
  • Templates — WhatsApp message templates with personalization variables.
  • Cross-app: create sequences for each product you sell — Travel inquiry follow-up, SBM demo, Academic onboarding.

API & Autonomous Agents

The entire platform is API-accessible. Use the REST API to integrate MKT with your website, chatbot, or AI agents.

  • OpenAPI 3.1 spec: /api/v1/schema — machine-readable discovery.
  • AI agent manifest: /.well-known/ai-plugin.json — agents discover MKT automatically.
  • Webhooks: receive real-time events for lead creation, pipeline moves, and campaign completions.
  • API keys: per-tenant keys with scoped permissions.
  • AI lead insights: POST /api/v1/leads/:id/insights — AI-generated lead analysis.

Real Use Case — Chácara Suites

We use Abkus MKT ourselves to manage reservations for our ranch suites. This is dogfooding — the same tools your business needs, proven in production.

The pipeline

  1. Lead capture: Guests submit interest via the public form at /comecar. Data flows straight into the CRM.
  2. WhatsApp follow-up: Automated sequences send availability, pricing, and confirmations via WhatsApp templates.
  3. Pipeline management: Inquiry → Quote → Confirmed → Check-In → Completed. Every stage tracked.
  4. Analytics: Conversion rates, time-in-stage, source attribution — all visible in the dashboard.

This case study proves MKT works for service businesses — vacation rentals, inns, clinics, event spaces — anywhere leads need nurturing through WhatsApp.
