The Problem

Instagram DMs are a goldmine of potential customers:

  • "How much is this?"
  • "Do you ship to [location]?"
  • "Can you do [custom request]?"
  • "Tell me more about [product]"

But manual responses are:

  • Time-consuming (hours daily)
  • Inconsistent (different answers)
  • Slow (leads go cold)
  • Limited (you're not awake 24/7)

The Solution

Automated DM responses that:

  1. Reply instantly (24/7)
  2. Answer common questions
  3. Capture lead information
  4. Qualify prospects
  5. Route hot leads to you

How It Works

Price Inquiry

User: "How much for the [product]?"

Bot: "Hey! đź‘‹ Thanks for reaching out!

[Product] starts at $X. Here's what's included:
• Feature 1
• Feature 2
• Feature 3

Would you like me to send you the full pricing
breakdown and options?"

User: "Yes please"

Bot: "Perfect! What's the best email to send that to?"

User: "[email]"

Bot: "Got it! Sending now. Our team will follow up
within 24 hours if you have any questions.

In the meantime, want to browse our bestsellers?

Service Inquiry

User: "Do you do [service]?"

Bot: "Yes! We offer [service] - it's one of our
most popular options.

To give you the best recommendation, quick question:
What's your main goal with [service]?

A) [Goal 1]
B) [Goal 2]
C) Something else"

User: "A"

Bot: "Great choice! Based on that, I'd recommend...
