FROM THE REEL

What you need

  • An Instagram Professional account (Business or Creator).
  • A free ManyChat account (manychat.com). Other tools work the same way.
  • One thing to send: a free PDF, a link or a discount code.

Setup in 7 steps

  • Sign up at manychat.com and connect your Instagram account.
  • Create a new automation with the trigger "User comments on your post or reel".
  • Choose a specific reel (or all posts) and set your keyword (e.g. PROMPT). Allow small variations.
  • Turn on the public comment reply ("Check your DMs 📩") so others see it works.
  • Write the DM: thank them, one line about the gift, a button with your link.
  • Add a follow-up a day later that offers your paid product or next step.
  • Test it from a second account before you post the reel.

Copy these messages

  • Public reply: "Sent! Check your DMs 📩"
  • DM: "Hey [first name]! Here's the [gift] you asked for 👇 [button: Get it]. Want more like this? I post one AI shortcut every day."
  • Follow-up (next day): "Did the [gift] help? If you want the full kit with [benefit], it's here: [link]. Reply STOP to unsubscribe."

Rules that keep you safe

  • Only message people who commented or messaged you first.
  • Keep one keyword per reel, and make it short and easy to spell.
  • Check your tool's free-plan limits and Instagram's messaging rules, which can change.
