A WhatsApp catalogue done right makes the phone the storefront.
Day 35 — Month 2, Week 6. You are in the advanced phase of the 2-Month Expert Program. Today: WhatsApp Catalogue Implementation.
You now have the full technical and implementation foundation from Days 1–28. The remaining days build the advanced expert capabilities — the skills that differentiate a junior implementer from a senior consultant.
🔬
Expert-level work is about depth within a domain, not breadth across domains. Anyone can configure a Team Inbox. An expert configures it correctly the first time, anticipates the edge cases, and knows how to fix it when something breaks six months later. That depth is what today builds.
Read the reference page below, then apply your expert-level knowledge to the quiz and the day's task. The tasks at this stage are real deliverables — not practice exercises.
🔑 Expert standard: Every task submission from Day 29 onwards should be something you could show to a client or employer as evidence of your capability. Not a draft — a deliverable.

Read the reference page below before taking the quiz.
What is a WhatsApp catalogue and which businesses benefit most from it?
A
A list of approved message templates
B
An interactive product showcase built directly inside WhatsApp — customers browse, view product details and prices, and place orders without leaving the chat. Best for: retail, F&B, D2C brands, and any business selling discrete products
C
A database of contact numbers
D
A Meta-approved list of business categories
✅ WhatsApp catalogue = in-chat product showcase. Customers browse, view, and order without a website. Retail, F&B, D2C — any product business benefits.
❌ Catalogue = interactive in-chat product showcase. Browse + view + order without leaving WhatsApp. Product businesses especially benefit.
Question 2 of 5
How does a WhatsApp catalogue integrate with an existing Shopify store?
A
Manual product entry only — no integration
B
Shopify product catalogue syncs to WhatsApp catalogue via the Facebook Business Manager connection — product updates in Shopify automatically reflect in the WhatsApp catalogue
C
The catalogues are completely separate and incompatible
D
WhatsApp catalogue replaces the Shopify store
✅ Shopify → Facebook Business Manager → WhatsApp catalogue sync. Product changes propagate automatically. One source of truth for all channels.
❌ Shopify syncs to WhatsApp catalogue via Facebook Business Manager. Product updates propagate automatically across both channels.
Question 3 of 5
A restaurant wants to let WhatsApp customers browse their menu and place orders directly. Which feature combination?
A
Bulk messaging to send the menu
B
WhatsApp catalogue for menu display + WhatsApp Flow for order collection + chatbot to confirm and process the order → all without the customer leaving WhatsApp
C
Send the menu PDF in the chatbot
D
Direct customers to the website for ordering
✅ Catalogue + Flow + chatbot = complete in-WhatsApp ordering experience. Zero friction, zero external redirects, customer stays in the channel they're already in.
What is the key limitation of WhatsApp catalogue for a high-SKU retail brand (10,000+ products)?
A
WhatsApp catalogue supports unlimited products with no issues
B
Catalogues work best for curated product sets — 10,000+ SKUs creates a browsing experience that is impractical on mobile. Better approach: use the catalogue for featured/bestselling products and direct customers to the website for full range browsing
C
WhatsApp catalogues cannot show prices
D
Catalogue requires a dedicated WhatsApp number
✅ Catalogues are best for curated product sets, not entire inventories. Feature the bestsellers. Drive to website for full range. Don't make customers scroll through thousands of products on mobile.
❌ Catalogues suit curated product sets, not 10,000+ SKUs. Feature bestsellers in the catalogue, link to website for the full range.
Question 5 of 5
How should product pricing be handled in a WhatsApp catalogue for a business with frequently changing prices?
A
Update manually whenever prices change
B
Use dynamic pricing fields that sync from the product database via Shopify or direct API — or list catalogue products without prices and use the catalogue purely for discovery, with pricing confirmed in the chatbot conversation
C
Remove all prices from the catalogue
D
Show a price range for all products
✅ Dynamic sync via Shopify is the automated solution. If manual updates are impractical, use the catalogue for discovery and confirm live pricing in the conversation.
❌ Dynamic sync via Shopify keeps prices current automatically. Alternative: catalogue for discovery, chatbot for live price confirmation.
