Virtual Numbers for WhatsApp Business & Digital Identity
The user is looking to set up a WhatsApp Business account without impacting their personal one, and they're curious about using one-time eSIMs or websites for this. This is a common need for small business owners, freelancers, and individuals who want to keep their personal and professional digital lives separate, especially on messaging apps.
- Virtual Phone Numbers: Users can rent or subscribe to virtual phone numbers from around the world for business use.
- Temporary eSIM/SMS Verification: Provides one-time or short-term numbers specifically for activating or verifying accounts on platforms like WhatsApp Business, Telegram, and others.
- Multiple Identity Management: Offers tools and guidance on managing multiple business identities on a single device or across different apps.
- Privacy Focus: Ensures that no personal data is linked to these business numbers.
Product Form: A web-based portal, and potentially a mobile app, where users can select, provision, and manage virtual numbers, with a focus on easy setup for specific business messaging apps.
Expected Revenue: This is a fast-growing market, driven by the gig economy and remote work. A subscription model charging $5-$20 per month per virtual number (or pay-per-use for one-time activations) can scale quickly. With thousands of users looking to professionalize their communication or separate their identities, this could lead to significant MRR (for example, 5,000 subscribers at $10/month equals $50,000 MRR).
