For photographers in Puducherry (Tamil, French, English speakers)
WhatsApp is where wedding clients shortlist. A 30-second reply with portfolio + pricing wins; a 2-hour delay loses. Doggu does that reply for you. Built for Puducherry's White Town, Heritage Town, Auroville, Mahatma Gandhi Road businesses — works in Tamil, French, English.
Key business hubs: White Town, Heritage Town, Auroville, Mahatma Gandhi Road. Languages: Tamil, French, English, Telugu.
Puducherry's international tourist base + French-heritage zone means inquiries arrive in Tamil, English, French, and other European languages — single-language WhatsApp loses 30%+ of premium leads.
When a couple fills out your form, they're shopping. Whoever replies first usually wins. Forms that take a day to follow up convert at <5%; WhatsApp replies in minutes convert at 25%+.
Two couples ask about the same Saturday. You verbally confirm both. Conflict surfaces a week before the wedding. Painful.
Email back-and-forth, GST invoice, advance link, contract PDF. Most studios lose 20% of bookings to friction in this cycle.
Tamil-first; French heritage in some signage/commerce; English in tourism.
Doggu's voice agent auto-detects Tamil, French, English and switches mid-conversation if the caller does. WhatsApp templates can be approved in any of the languages your customers actually use.
Replace form with a WhatsApp link. Insta DM, Insta bio, ad — all funnel into WhatsApp. AI sends portfolio links, package brochure, and a 'are you free for a 15-min call?' CTA in 30 seconds.
Couple says 'available 14 Feb?' AI checks your calendar, replies with availability and pricing for that date. Holds the slot tentatively for 24 hours pending advance.
AI sends advance payment link + contract PDF in WhatsApp. Couple pays + e-signs in 5 minutes. Booking auto-confirmed in calendar. Goodbye, week-long email loop.
Final gallery link goes via WhatsApp once delivery is ready. Built-in 7-day gallery expiry, password protection, download tracking. Clients refer faster when handoff feels professional.
