When someone comments or DMs your Instagram, you have minutes before their attention moves on. The New-Lead Welcome DM workflow replies instantly, asks the one or two questions that qualify them, and drops your booking link, so an Instagram comment becomes a booked call while they're still interested, even while you sleep.
How this workflow works
- Trigger, new comment or DM. Fires when someone comments a keyword or sends a DM.
- Instant welcome reply. They get a friendly auto-DM within seconds.
- Qualify. One or two quick questions capture what they want (service, budget, timeline).
- Send the link. Based on their answer, the workflow sends your booking, quote, or product link.
- Follow up. If they go quiet, an automatic nudge a day later re-engages them.
Best for
- Coaches, consultants, and creators
- Agencies booking discovery calls
- Local and e-commerce businesses selling via DM
Why it works
Instagram is a conversation channel, not a billboard. Replying in seconds (not hours) is the difference between a booked lead and a cold one, and automation means every single inquiry gets that instant, qualified response.
What you'll need
An Inflowave account connected to your Instagram, plus your booking or product link. Clone the template, set your keyword and questions, and it captures leads around the clock.
Frequently asked questions
