A quick checklist to clean up how you market — before it costs you.
You send WhatsApp messages to customers. You run offers. You collect phone numbers on paper forms. But do you have permission to do all this? Under the new DPDP law, collecting people's information without clear permission is a problem. Many small businesses do this every day without knowing. If this sounds like you — keep reading.
Think about your shop's enquiry form. Does it ask customers if they want offers? If not, fix it today. Think about your WhatsApp broadcast list. Did every person say yes to getting messages? If not, that list needs cleaning. Think about the agency you hired for ads. Did you tell them what they can and cannot do with customer names and numbers? These small steps protect your business from big fines.
Check your forms — do they ask permission before collecting phone numbers?
Review your WhatsApp list — remove anyone who never said yes to messages.
