WHY IG AUTOMATION?

 

Marketers, brands, and influencers can immediately benefit from IG Automation because it:

 

• Generates sales by replying to product questions like, “Will this fit a size 0?” before sending customers to a buying destination.

• Saves time and automates answers to frequently asked questions like, “Do you offer free shipping?”

• Generates qualified leads by automating the lead qualification and follow-up process.

• Increases audience engagement by automating other kinds of Instagram activities such as automatically responding to all post comments and Story mentions.

• Scales Instagram Ads that start conversations with customers, like Story Ads that ask customers to “DM me this word.”

WHERE TO USE IG AUTOMATIONS

 

• Qualify leads

Qualify leads inside Instagram Messenger by automating the lead qualifying process. Collect user information in order to send a follow-up message with ManyChat’s SMS (short message service) or email functions to keep the conversation going.

 

• Coupons and giveaways

Collect a user’s email and phone number in exchange for a giveaway or coupon offer.

In a post or story, ask IG users to message you with a certain keyword. After the user messages you with the keyword, the triggered flow will activate and signal the automation to collect their contact info for the giveaway or coupon. 

 

• Run an Instagram Ad

Run an ad on Instagram and have the call to action (CTA) take the user directly to IG Messenger. 

 

You can also run a Story Ad and ask the user to message you a specific keyword. Once the keyword is messaged inside IG Messenger, your flow will be triggered. From there, ask for contact information, answer common questions, run an FAQ, and more. 

 

• Sell a course or set up a demo call

Set up a registration flow by asking the user to type a keyword in IG Messenger. Throughout the following automated flow, lead the user to either purchase a course or get them to set up a demo or consulting call.

  

• Send lead magnets to all incoming Instagram subscribers 

Create a ManyChat Rule that all IG opt-ins are sent into a flow; this option sends a message to all incoming subscribers, including Story Mentioners.

 

• Build a quiz

Create a quiz to find out more about your customers. For example, if you’re in real estate, build a quiz in order to learn more about home buyers’ income levels and what they’re looking for in their desired home.
