Set up chatbot auto-replies on Instagram

People often ask questions like: Do you have this item in stock? How much does it cost? What are the delivery terms? Where is your shop located? If you know the most common questions people ask, you can set up a chatbot to give real-time responses to people’s questions. You can also build your bot conversation flow using quick reply buttons — they will encourage users to engage with your Instagram bot.

React to users who mention your brand in their Stories

To build brand trust and loyalty from your audience, auto-reply to users that mention your product or brand. You can set up thank-you messages, start relevant bot flows, or offer incentives. Such a buzz surrounding your brand on Instagram can make sales boom — first, one satisfied customer mentions you in their Story. Then, you are on the radar of new audiences, getting more mentions on social media.

Promote your chatbot on Instagram with the help of ads

Promote your products and services using an Instagram bot. To engage users with the bot you can launch a targeted ad campaign with the goal “Instagram Direct.” Set up a welcome message in your Facebook ad account and specify the key phrase that will be the trigger for launching bot message flows. The user will choose the relevant message and go through the other messages in the flow. When chatting with your bot a customer may ask to consult a real person — in this case you can switch the chat to your manager.

FAQ

Log into your SendPulse account, go to the “Chatbots” tab, and add the Instagram page you want to set up a chatbot for.

Chatbots are useful for any business. If you get hundreds of similar questions and deal with dozens of orders through your DMs on Instagram, you can make your work a lot easier with the help of a chatbot. You do not have to hire a person to reply to direct messages on Instagram — you can easily automate this routine process.

First, you need to create a chatbot flow based on different actions your subscribers may perform, such as placing an order, returning or exchanging an item, or asking questions. Once you do, every time your users make a targeted action, a chatbot will interact with them and help them out with their queries. Moreover, Instagram chatbots can send information about your customers to your CRM according to the filters you apply.

With an Instagram chatbot, you don’t have to hire a live agent who processes your orders through direct messages — allowing your business to save time and money. The chatbot works 24/7 without a break and responds to every user immediately. It can help you clear up any issues your customers may have, minimizing or eliminating the barriers to purchases, and reducing customer churn.

Create a trigger for sending an automated flow — it could be keywords people usually type when sending questions to your chat or any event, like a subscription to your page. Then, create a scenario for your chatbot, setting up conditions for sending each message.

Go to “Account settings,” open “Users,” and click “Invite a new user.” Read a step by step instruction on how to distribute access to users in your SendPulse account.

With SendPulse’s chatbot builder, you can create bots for Instagram, WhatsApp, Facebook, and Тelegram.
