Sharp Biz/Customer messaging
For our clients

One inbox for every customer message

When people write to a client's business on WhatsApp or Instagram, our team answers from one shared inbox, so no inquiry gets lost. This is part of the work we do for our clients. We do not sell it as software.

What it is

Many customers would rather send a message than fill in a form or make a call. For each client, we connect the client's own business accounts, such as a WhatsApp Business number and an Instagram professional account, to a shared inbox that our team runs on the client's behalf. Replies go out from the client's own account and number, so the customer is still talking to the client's business.

The client owns the account, the number and the conversations. We operate the inbox for them.

What we do in the inbox

How a client connects

  1. The client agrees the scope in writing. What we answer, what we pass back to the client, and the hours we cover.
  2. The client signs in with their own business account. They do it through Meta's official login window and approve the permissions themselves. Instagram accounts must be professional (Business or Creator).
  3. Messages start arriving in the shared inbox. Our team answers from there.
  4. The client can disconnect at any time. In their Meta or Instagram settings, or by asking us.

The permissions we ask for

We ask only for what the inbox needs:

The data we handle

The messages customers send, their phone numbers or Instagram usernames, their profile names and delivery status. We use it only to run the inbox for that client. We do not sell it, use it for our own advertising, share it with another client, or use it to train artificial intelligence models. Our Privacy Policy explains the details, and the data deletion page explains how to ask us to delete your data.

Questions we get asked first

Is this software you sell?

No. Customer messaging is part of the service we provide to clients who work with us. We do not sell the inbox, or access to it, as a separate product.

Can customers still reach the business the normal way?

Yes. The account and the number stay the client's. Customers keep writing to the same account they always did.

Who can see the conversations?

The client, and the people at Sharp Biz who run the inbox for that client. Conversations from one client are never shown to another.

What happens if we stop working together?

We disconnect the accounts and stop using them. We then delete or return the client's conversation data, as described in our Privacy Policy.
