WhatsApp only allows businesses to share the template message with their customers to share a message on WhatsApp as a business you need to get an approved message template from WhatsApp.
This process usually takes five minutes to complete & approved. You can create a template message on Cheerio from the template library itself. Here you get industry-proven templates used by brands. You can use these or can create your own as well.

5. Now Enter the message in the body section in the language you want your template to be. You can use different text weights for hierarchy & precision.
Variables: variables are the text parameters in a template that can be altered every time for different customers. For example, {{1}} is a variable in the above image. You add a name as a variable while submitting a template. This will help while launching a campaign. You can add different names for different recipients.
