Set up an automation that watches your inbox. When someone replies to a specific email with a keyword like "template," the system automatically replies within the same email thread to deliver the lead magnet, bypassing complex ESP sequences.
For content like a product brochure, don't force an email submission. Instead, allow an instant download while offering an option to also receive it via email. This respects user intent while still capturing high-intent leads who value the convenience of an inboxed copy.
A marketer routed all replies from nurture campaigns directly to his personal inbox instead of a generic one. This provided raw, immediate feedback on everything from campaign resonance and data quality issues to prospect sentiment, allowing for rapid strategy adjustments.
Instead of directing users to a landing page, ask them to reply to your email with a specific word (e.g., "guide") to receive content. This tactic significantly increases conversions by reducing friction and simplifying the user's action.
Set up an automation that checks email replies against a database of your sent newsletter subject lines. If a reply corresponds to a broadcast email, automatically forward it to a testimonial tool like Senja to capture social proof without manual effort.
Effective DM automation isn't about creating complex, multi-step chatbots that try to anticipate every user response. The most authentic and user-friendly approach is to automate only specific, pre-defined keywords. This leaves 99% of DMs for genuine human interaction, avoiding a spammy or overwhelming user experience.
Instead of directing users to a landing page with a form, ask them to simply reply to the email with a keyword to receive a guide or discount. This reduces friction and can exponentially increase the number of people who take the desired action compared to traditional methods.
