📱 WhatsApp Wednesday | Tip #02
Headline: Make Your Text Messages Actually Get Read

​The Problem: Long paragraphs of plain text get skimmed or completely ignored, leading to missed details and follow-up questions.

The Fix: Format your text directly inside WhatsApp using built-in shortcuts to create clear structure, highlight key dates, or list out action items.

​How to do it (Format Cheat Sheet):
​Bold: Place an asterisk on both sides → *Important Notice*
_ Italics: Place an underscore on both sides → _Meeting at 3 PM_
~ Strikethrough: Place a tilde on both sides → ~Old Price~
monospace: Place 3 backticks on both sides → ```Code123```
​Bullet Lists: Type an asterisk * or hyphen - followed by a space before your text.
​Numbered Lists: Type a number, period, and space (1. ) before your text.

​Which shortcut are you going to start using today?

About Facebook

đź’ˇ Tach Tip of the Week
Social media is becoming more interactive — and more conversational. Don't just ask people to like your content. Give them something worth responding to. A question, a poll, a useful opinion or a quick conversation starter can turn passive viewers into an active audience. Social media works better when it's actually social.

THIS WEEK IN SOCIAL | 24 AUGUST 2026

What’s happening across the social media platforms this week? Here are a few updates worth knowing if you use social media for business.

📱 WHATSAPP
WhatsApp is expanding its business messaging and advertising options. Business Broadcasts are becoming a paid feature, while advertising is being introduced in the Updates tab — separate from your personal chats.

đź’ˇ Tach Tip of the Week
Social media is no longer just about posting content.

Messaging, AI, advertising, discovery and commerce are increasingly working together — which means businesses need a strategy, not just a posting schedule.

What does this actually mean for your business? That’s where we come in. đź“© Need help making sense of social media changes? Get in touch with Tach Media. 071 044 5249; [email protected].

📱 WhatsApp Wednesday | Tip #01

Tired of losing important messages in busy chats?
You received an address, a Wi-Fi password, or a meeting link, but three days later it’s buried under 200 new messages.
The Fix: WhatsApp lets you pin up to 3 critical messages to the top of any individual or group chat, creating a quick-access banner for everyone in the thread.
How to do it (in 5 seconds):
1. Long-press the specific message you want to keep handy.
2. Tap More Options (or the three dots / pop-up menu) → select Pin.
3. Choose how long to keep it pinned (24 hours, 7 days, or 30 days).

Tach Media Pro-Tip: You can also swipe right on the entire chat thread in your main inbox to pin up to 3 priority conversations to the top of your app!

This Week in Social: What You May Have Missed

Social media doesn't stand still. Here's a quick look at some of the changes worth knowing about this week.

📱 WhatsApp
WhatsApp continues expanding features that make business communication easier, including new ways for people to connect while protecting their phone numbers.

📸 Instagram
Instagram is continuing to invest heavily in AI-powered creation and editing tools. For businesses, that means more content-creation capabilities are moving directly into the platform.

👥 Facebook
Meta is putting greater emphasis on original content. Reposted or low-value content can be deprioritised, making original ideas and genuine business content increasingly important.

đź’Ľ LinkedIn
As AI-generated content becomes more common, human expertise and genuine professional insight are becoming even more valuable. Your experience is part of your brand.

🎬 YouTube
Short-form video remains a major focus, but views aren't everything. Keeping people watching and giving them a reason to come back matters more.

đź’ˇ Tach Tip of the Week
Don't create content just because it's Monday. Create something that teaches, helps, answers, inspires or starts a conversation. Your audience's time is valuable. Make your content worth it. đź’ś

Do business hours matter?

It’s easier than ever to contact a business. WhatsApp means you can send a message at any time, and it will land in their inbox whether they’re at work, having dinner or fast asleep.

But just because you can message a business outside its stated business hours, does that mean you should? And when you do, what does it communicate about professionalism, boundaries and respect for the business’s operating hours?

We want to hear what you think. Can customers message whenever they want because “it’s WhatsApp” — or should business hours still matter?

P.S. We’re out of office today for the Women’s Day public holiday.... Please don’t text us!

Happy Women’s Day! Be safe, be good, and enjoy the holiday. 💜
