This app was founded in 2013 by a Russian guy, and since then, it has become one of the most popular messaging apps. And now this app counts 200million and more users a month, which is not much less than WhatsApp.

Today we will teach you how to use Telegram channels for your business. It is effortless, so keep reading this article to find out how to do it easily and quickly.

First of all, what is a Telegram channel for business?

It is a channel for your own business. You can share information, news, and other information with your co-workers or employers. It is convenient if you want to stay in touch with them all the time to create the best project you can. You can make either a private or a public business channel; you can choose whichever you want. The public channel is available to anyone, and everyone can see it. While on the other hand, private channels are for the people that only you invite and can join by one link.

Steps to create and set up a Telegram channel for your business

You first need to make an ordinary channel on Telegram and then add other things we will show you. So, start by making an ordinary channel. Click on the New Channel button to continue with the steps down below.

  • While creating a channel, you will be asked to type in the name of it. You can give that channel a name the same as your company’s name or an important project’s name. You can call it what you want.
  • Next, add a description to your channel. The description should be as short as possible and contain only basic information about your channel. Write in the purpose of your channel and the goal, for example.
  • You will now have to choose whether you want your channel to be public or private; choose whichever you want; we explained the difference in the previous paragraph of this article.
  • If you want to make a private channel, you will receive a unique link that you will be able to give to the people you want to be on your channel. If you have made a public channel, you will also be able to get a link, but it can be shareable on other social media.

And that was it. The only thing left to do is to share that link (if you have made a private channel) with your colleagues or employers. As soon as they open that link, they will be redirected to your new Telegram channel. They will be able to start communicating and working on a certain project right away; they will also be able to see all of the messages and previous chats in that specific channel.
