Hello Stephanie! I downloaded the material for manychat but there's no template for DM. Instead, there's one for post or reel comments #86. Can you please send the DM template? thanks
Thank you for this! Question, I've set up a sequence, followed all the steps to integrate with Instagram + my Facebook page, but when I go to test it out on Instagram by commenting the word I've set up as a keyword for the trigger, nothing happens. I was SO excited to use this tool but it seems like it's just not working! I've tried all the troubleshooting from Manychat, tried creating the sequence again, all the things...would love to know if you've encountered this before?
Hmm, did you use the templates offered in this video's description! This video is specifically about triggering automations via story reply or DM, so a comment would not work to trigger the automation! If you used these templates, and they appear to be turned on, try DMing yourself your trigger word!
We use Manychat to deliver all kinds of links! It's most beneficial to use it for delivering your freebie (email list opt-in) links, so that's what we use it for the most!
I have seen a much better response with Manychat automations than with including the link on the screen! My thought is that it feels a little more personal to invite someone to send you a message & start a conversation. Then, they have the link saved in their DMs to visit later rather than having to visit it right away. It keeps people watching your stories and boosts your engagement due to the increase in replies!
@@hellowinegenie what was your issue with Facebook because I am having the same issue. Have gone thru many emails back and forth with manychat and I am exhausted trying to figure this all out.
hi, i'm facing a problem. Today I created an automation for a reel and set it live. It worked fine at first but as soon as my reel collaboration got accepted the replies to comments stopped. Fortunately, only one person commented and she got the link in her DM but she didn't get the automated reply in the comments. why is this happening? what should I do?
@@StephanieKase please help me... I'm very confused... Moreover it was my another account...i wanted to post the same reel in both the accounts that's why i put collaboration.
Do you know if you can set up keyword and DM response with manychats free? I guess more of a question for them but not great support. I tried to do this and it told me I had to upgrade so I’m in the trial now but not sure I want to pay $15/mo. Plus looks like adding another IG account is an additional $15. Ugh!
The free plan is pretty limited! You can only have three active automations and a limit of automatic replies. We pay for the pro plan and it has been a huge benefit to our business!
Hi Stephanie - thanks for this. I have a question - do you have to have an Instagram business account only when I tried with my creator account it wouldn’t work? Thanks Catherine
I have another question for you please. If someone comments on your post and you don’t follow this person and this persons account is private, do they get the auto message from you?
It would be awesome if manychat added a feature to select keywords only, to avoid this point of having callout words that are used in the conversation 😁

Is Manychat like Project Broadcast? Which one should be used for what?
After a quick search, it looks like Project Broadcast is used for calls. Manychat is what we use for Instagram DMs and comments!
Thanks for your video. Question: When you give the link directly does it lead to an opt-in page so that you collect the email?

Great video! Just wondering do you know how to set up an automation to reply with another IG comment if they have not responded to the last message?
Manychat automations require a prompt from the user!
How can I do this for IG posts scheduled in Metricool?
Set up the trigger word and make it live in Manychat ahead of time!
Is there a video about how to answer DMs generally so people can choose what they want from my services not the one linked to comment + Dm ...
you could send a link to your shop page!
Question for you. Why have that feature for stories if you can already include a link in them anyway?

@@StephanieKase ok thank you! I didn’t think of it like that
How do I bypass using Facebook and connecting with Facebook when signing up?
You will need to use Facebook!
although I really appreciate your content:)
Thanks! :)
Hi, I messaged myself from my other account, but it doesn't seem to work... everything appears active in manychat. What could be happening?
Is one of the accounts private? That might stop the automation!
@@StephanieKase No! I had an issue with facebook but I appealed, they approved it and then it worked ☺️ thanks for answering!!

@@shesellsscottsdale991 I needed to provide some more info to meta from my Facebook account because it was a new one
Hey, i was able to get the story link but the DM link send me to a slack sign-in page.
Thanks for bringing this to our attention!! Email support@stephaniekase.com and we will send you the correct template link!!

It's possible that you cannot collaborate & use MC! I would clarify that within Manychat!

Hi Stephanie - thanks for this. I have a question - do you have to have an Instagram business account only when I tried with my creator account it wouldn’t work? Thanks Catherine
My account is listed as a creator!
@@StephanieKase Ok I’ll try again - thank you!

Yes they do, it goes to their message requests!
Thanks
Thanks for watching!!

You can select the key word only option!
Yes!@@StephanieKase I will go track that down
I believe this is the time to stop following the idea to say as much as possible in the shortest time possible.
