#### 5. Operational Synergy

Keyword-Driven Automation
Response Resources achieve their full potential when linked to Keyword Actions. For example, assigning the keyword "Order" to an Image material of your product catalog ensures users receive it instantly upon inquiry.

###### Workflow Example

1. Create a Text Material: "Welcome to our store!"
2. Upload an Image: "Current_Promotions.png".
3. Map both to the keyword "OFFER".
4. User sends "OFFER" → System sends both materials automatically.

###### Strategic Use Cases

- Support: Send "Quick Troubleshoot" documents instantly.
- Sales: Push Catalogues or Form Flows for lead capture.
- Retention: Trigger Sequences for post-purchase follow-ups.

#### 6. Strategic Governance

###### Health & Maintenance

- Concise Messaging: Keep quick-replies short to prevent UI clutter in WhatsApp.
- Active Review: Periodically delete outdated materials to keep the library lean.
- Test First: Always send a test message to a sandbox account before linking to production keywords.

Troubleshooting: If a material isn't triggering via a keyword, ensure the keyword mapping matches exactly and that the material hasn't been deleted or archived.
