Private chats and groups remain encrypted and inaccessible. This is legal, ethical, and genuinely useful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Public Telegram channels serve many purposes: news outlets, brand communities, industry groups, crypto discussions, and product review spaces. Many have tens of thousands of subscribers and generate conversations your marketing team would find invaluable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"telegram-key-statistics\">Telegram: Key

If you are new to the topic, check our other article on the <a href=\"https:\/\/brand24.com\/blog\/what-is-social-listening\/\">benefits of social listening<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Monitoring Telegram and other chat apps will give you valuable insights into what people are saying about your brand. When combined with tools like Brand24 for <a href=\"https:\/\/brand24.com\/blog\/sentiment-analysis\/\">sentiment analysis<\/a>, this can help you avert a potential <a href=\"https:\/\/brand24.com\/blog\/pr-crisis-management\/\">PR crisis<\/a> and more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"pr\">1. PR Crisis Prevention<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>A complaint thread in a 50,000-member Telegram channel can go viral within hours \u2014 long before it reaches your inbox. Early acknowledgment stops speculation from filling the silence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"competitor\">2. Competitor Intelligence<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Your competitors&#8217; weaknesses are your opportunities \u2014 but only if you know where to look. Recurring complaints about rivals are real-time market research you can act on immediately.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"customer\">3. Customer FAQ Discovery<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Support tickets show you what customers escalate. Telegram shows you what they quietly give up on. Unanswered questions circulating publicly create doubt that costs you conversions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"social\">4. Social Proof &amp; Testimonials<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The most convincing reviews are the ones written when no one was watching. Organic third-party praise converts far better than polished testimonials on your own website.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"selling\">5. Social Selling<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The best sales conversation is one that the customer doesn&#8217;t feel is a sales conversation. People trust peer recommendations in community spaces far more than ads.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Telegram monitoring is perfect for <a href=\"https:\/\/brand24.com\/blog\/what-is-social-selling\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"social selling\">social selling<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here&#8217;s a real-life example of how <strong>one of Brand24&#8217;s clients, Traffit<\/strong>, used the tool for social selling:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Real-life example: Traffit<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Traffit, a recruitment software company, uses Brand24 to monitor keywords like &#8220;ATS&#8221; and &#8220;recruitment tools&#8221; across public channels and communities \u2014 catching decision-makers actively asking for tool recommendations in real time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The results speak for themselves: outreach based on Brand24 leads converted at a 30% engagement rate, compared to just 2% with traditional cold calling. By showing up in the right conversations at the right moment, Traffit now generates 500 qualified leads every month \u2014 without a single cold call.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a

work?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>There are many public channels on Telegram that can be monitored, just like on other social media platforms. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Those channels serve various purposes: <\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>there are groups with the latest global news, <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>groups with mobile phone wallpapers, <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>recipe channels for food lovers, <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>and many others.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Anyone can start a new public group chat, and many companies do that for advertising purposes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Monitoring Telegram channels allows companies to track real conversations between their potential clients and offers an innovative way to pursue social selling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Things to

class=\"has-background\" style=\"background-color:#e8f4ee\">\u26a0\ufe0f&nbsp;<strong>Beware of free Telegram spy apps.<\/strong>&nbsp;Private conversations are encrypted \u2014 no legitimate tool can access them. Any app claiming otherwise is almost certainly a scam designed to steal your data. Stick to reputable social listening tools that monitor public channels only.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"how-to-monitor-telegram-what-to-look-for-in-a-tool\">How to monitor Telegram: What to look for in a tool<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Not all social listening tools support Telegram, and those that do vary significantly in depth. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Before committing to any platform, I recommend checking for the following:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Native Telegram integration<\/strong> \u2014 the tool should connect directly to Telegram&#8217;s public API, not rely on manual imports or workarounds<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Keyword + channel flexibility<\/strong> \u2014 you should be able to monitor specific keywords across all public channels, or narrow monitoring to selected channels only<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Real-time alerts<\/strong> \u2014 delayed data is useful for reporting; real-time alerts are what protect you from a PR crisis<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Sentiment analysis<\/strong> \u2014 volume of mentions tells you what&#8217;s happening; sentiment tells you whether to act<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Cross-platform coverage<\/strong> \u2014 Telegram mentions rarely exist in isolation; a tool that also covers X, Reddit, news sites, and review platforms gives you the full picture<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Historical data access<\/strong> \u2014 onboarding with only fresh data means missing context; look for tools that offer some backfill on setup<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Once you have those boxes checked, the setup process is straightforward regardless of which platform you choose.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"example\">Real-life example: Lalafo<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Lalafo, a charitable service with a small marketing budget, used Brand24&#8217;s Telegram monitoring to catch organic brand mentions \u2014 including ones written in Cyrillic they&#8217;d never have found manually. Every flagged mention became a partnership opportunity. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They cooperate with 42 news portals across Poland and Ukraine, with one partner alone driving 1,500 new app users per publication.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/brand24.com\/case-study\/lalafo\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">Read full case study &gt;<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"how-can-i-monitor-the-telegram-app-in-brand24\">How can I monitor the Telegram app in Brand24?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Brand24 offers Telegram monitoring as part of its broader social listening suite.
