The Challenge
Fast-growing women's clothing brand posting daily outfit inspiration and new arrivals on Instagram. Hundreds of comments on every post asking "Where can I buy this?" "What sizes?" "Is this in stock?" "Link please!" Had a team member spending hours every day manually responding to DMs and comments with product links. The manual process was slow, inconsistent, and couldn't keep up with growth. Missing sales opportunities because responses took too long. Customers would lose interest or buy from competitors. Employee costs were rising just to handle basic inquiries. Needed a way to scale customer engagement without scaling headcount.
The InstantDM Solution
Implemented comprehensive DM automation across all product posts and customer touchpoints:
- Comment "SHOP" → Instant DM with direct product link, size availability chart, current promotions, and styling suggestions
- Comment "LINK" → Instant DM with shop homepage, new arrivals section, bestsellers, and exclusive discount code for first-time buyers
- Comment "SIZE" → Instant DM with detailed sizing guide, fit recommendations, customer reviews on sizing, and easy returns policy
- Comment "RESTOCK" → Instant DM confirming restock notification signup, estimated restock date, similar available items, and waitlist priority access
- Abandoned Cart Recovery → Automated follow-up DM after 24 hours with personalized reminder, limited-time discount, and one-click checkout link
- Post-Purchase Sequence → Automated thank you DM, shipping updates, styling tips for purchased items, and review request with incentive
Every customer inquiry handled instantly, consistently, and professionally—without any manual work from the team.

"We were drowning in Instagram DMs. Every post
would get hundreds of comments asking for links,
and we just couldn't keep up. We had someone
working full-time just responding to basic
inquiries, and we were still missing sales
because responses took too long. InstantDM
completely transformed our business. Now every
single inquiry gets an instant, perfect
response—24/7. Our revenue has grown 4x in 11
months, customer engagement has doubled, and we
eliminated the cost of manual replies entirely.
The automation handles everything while our team
focuses on creating great products and content.
It's like having an unlimited customer service
team that never sleeps and never makes
mistakes."
