Instagram Comment to DM Automation: Step-by-Step
Comment-to-DM automation replies publicly and opens a private chat — the fastest way to grow inbound DMs. Here is the setup.
Every comment is a raised hand. Comment-to-DM automation replies publicly and slides the conversation into a private DM — the fastest way to grow your inbound leads.
Why it works
People who comment are already engaged. Meeting them in the DM while intent is fresh converts far better than hoping they click a link in bio later.
